Overprotected (Richi Lopez Remix)

[Intro]

(I need time, love, joy)

(I need space, love)

I need me (Action)

[Verse 1]

Say hello to the girl that I am

You're gonna have to see through my perspective

I need to make mistakes just to learn who I am

And I don't wanna be so damn protected

[Pre-Chorus]

There must be another way

'Cause I believe in takin' chances

But who am I to say what a girl is to do?

God, I need some answers

[Chorus]

What am I to do, do with my life?

(You will find it out, don't worry)

How am I supposed to know what's right?

(You just gotta do it your way)

I can't help the way I feel

But my life has been so overprotected

[Verse 2]

I'll tell 'em what I like, what I want, and what I don't

But every time I do, I stand corrected

Things that I've been told, I can't believe what I hear about the world

I realize I'm overprotected

[Pre-Chorus]

There must be another way

'Cause I believe in takin' chances

But who am I to say what a girl is to do?

God, I need some answers

[Chorus]

What am I to do, do with my life?

(You will find it out, don't worry)

How am I supposed to know what's right?

(You just gotta do it your way)

I can't help the way I feel (Help the way I feel)

But my life has been so overprotected

[Interlude]

I need time, love

I need space (This is it)

[Refrain]

I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna

What I, what, what, what I'm gonna (I need)

Do about my destiny

I say no-no

Nobody's tellin' me just what I wanna do-do

I'm so fed up with people tellin' me to be

Someone else but me

[Chorus]

(Yeah, yeah) What am I to do, do with my life?

(You will find it out, don't worry)

How am I supposed to know what's right?

(You just gotta do it your way)

I can't help the way I feel

But my life has been so overprotected

[Refrain]

I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna

What I, what, what, what I'm gonna

Do about my destiny

I say no-no

Nobody's tellin' me just what I wanna do-do

I'm so fed up with people tellin' me to be

Someone else but me

[Chorus]

What am I to do, do with my life?

(You will find it out, don't worry)

How am I supposed to know what's right?

(You just gotta do it your way)

No, I can't help the way I feel (I can't help the way I feel)

But my life has been so overprotected
