(feat. Aaron Hall, Bernard Bill, Lee Drakeford, ...)



Everybody's talking all this stuff about me 

Why don't they just let me live? 

I don't need commission, make my own decisions 

That's my prerogative 



They say I'm crazy 

I really don't care 

That's my prerogative 

They say I'm nasty 

But I don't give a damn 

Getting girls is how I live 

Some messy questions 

Why am I so real? 

But they don't undersand me 

I really don't know the deal about her brother 

Trying hard to make it right 

Not long ago 

Before I win this fight, sing 



[Chorus:]

Everybody's talking all this stuff about me 

Why don't they just let me live? 

Tell me why I don't need commission 

Make my own decisions 

That's my prerogative 

It's my prerogative (it's my prerogative) 



It's the way that I wanna live (it's my prerogative) 

I can do just what I feel (it's my prerogative) 

No one can tell me what to do (it's my prerogative) 

'Cause what I'm doing I'm doing for you 



Don't get me wrong 

I'm really not souped 

Ego trips is not my thing 

All these strange relationships really gets me down 

I see nothing wrong in spreading myself around 



[Chorus]



I can do what I wanna do (it's my prerogative) 

I can live my life (it's my prerogative) 

And I'm doing it just for you (it's my prerogative) 



Tell me, tell me why can't I live my life 

Live my life without all of the things 

That people say oh 



Yo, teddy kick it like this 

Oh no no I can do what I wanna do 

Me and you together together together together together 



[chorus: ad lib and fade]
