You say I'm possessin'
That I cramp your style
You say you're unhappy
That's putting it mild
You say you've decided
To be on your own
Be your own man
Be left alone
You say you have chosen
To live without me
You say I've stolen
Your eyes and empty
You've become restless
So you made it my fault
You want your freedom
I'll pay the cost
Be your own man
I set you free
Be who you are
Go as you please
I hope you'll be happy
Whatever you find
Be your own man
'Cause you're no longer mine
I watch you leavin'
I can't hide the tears
To think it meant nothin'
The memories, the years
Are you searching for something?
Are you grasping at youth?
Do you think you will find it?
Is it worth what you'll lose?
Be your own man
I set you free
Be who you are
Go where you please
I know I can't stop you
You made up your mind
Be your own man
'Cause you're no longer mine
(Be your own man, just be your own man)
Be your own man
I set you free
Be your own man
Don't worry 'bout me
I hope you'll be happy
Whatever you find
Be your own man
'Cause you're no longer mine
Be your own man
Be your own man
(Be your own man, just be your own man)
Be your own man, just be your own man
