(Hook) So, I´m gon´(heyyyyy-ahh-heyyyyy!) close my eyes, And I´m gon´ live my life (oooh-ooh), (this is my life). Despite what you think,
I´mma be free (oooh-ooh-hoo-ooh!), ´cause I´mma be me, yeah. (Hook) Said (eeh) I´m gon´close my eyes (yeah-hey-hey!), And I´m gon´ live my life (ooh-ahh-la-hoo-yeah-hey). Despite what you think (yeah, yeah), I´mma be free (yeah-hey), ´cause I´mma be me (mmm-mmm), yeah. (Verse 1) See, I ain´t never think I would have a situation Where the people around me just envy, I must replace ´em. See, I always thought the people that watch me grow, Would wanna see me blow, fa´-sho, But little did I know.
They ain´t never really wanna see me smiling, They couldn´t take the fact that I was really shining. And in my heart, I knew they was wishing I was stop, ´Cause they don´t me to rise and be on top. (Bridge) And all that jealousy and hate, Could be right in front of your face. And it´s gone hurt for you to see, but it ain´t your fault, just let it be. (Hook) So, I´m gon´ close my eyes (eyes), And I´m gon´ live my life (life). Despite what you think, I´mma be free, ´cause I´mma be me, yeah. (Hook) Said I´m gon´ close my eyes (eyes),
And I´m gon´ live my life (life). Despite what you think, I´mma be free, ´cause I´mma be me, yeah. (Verse 2) See, everybody wanna have something to talk about, So they pointin´ their fingers and always runnin´ their mouths. No matter how you try to satisfy someone else, Givin´ so much of yourself, yo´ love, but it´s never enough. The more you give, the more they want, and they ain´t happy. And they don´t see all you do to make ´em happy. They don´t appreciate it ´till you walk away, But you don´t wanna hear by now it´s too late. (Bridge) And all that jealousy and hate,
Could be right in front of your face. And it´s gone hurt for you to see, but it ain´t your fault, just let it be. (Hook) So, I´m gon´ close my eyes (eyes), And I´m gon´ live my life (life). Despite what you think, I´mma be free, ´cause I´mma be me, yeah (yeah)! (Hook) Said I´m gonna close my eyes (eyes), And I´m gonna live my life (life). Despite what you think, I´mma be free, ´cause I´mma be me, yeah. (Verse 3) See, what they don´t understand is That I´m a keep livin´ my life and survivin´, And I´mma keep pushin´, and strivin´, and climbin´, and grindin´.
´Cause ain´t no time to be crying; I been providing with the strength to carry my way (carry my way). And I´mma be ok (I´mma be ok), ´cause I´m gone live my life my way, You can say what you wanna say, it won´t affect the way I´m living. I´m winnin´ by being free again, yeah. (Hook) So I´m gon´ close my eyes (eyes), And I´m gon´ live my life (life). Despite what you think, I´mma be free, ´cause I´mma be me, yeah. (Hook) Said I´m gonna close my eyes (eyes), And I´m gonna live my life (life). Despite what you think, I´mma be free, ´cause I´mma be me, yeah!
(Outro) Yeah, yeah, heyyy... ´cause it´s my life... My life… my life... my life, my life, my life, my life... Yeah-yeah.
