Overprotected (The Darkchild Remix)

I need time, love, joy
I need space, love, now, I need me

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

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

What am I to do, do with my life?
(You'll 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

I 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

So 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

What am I to do, do with my life?
(You'll 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

I need time, love, I need space
This is it

I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna
What I want, or 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, yeah

What am I to do, do with my life?
(You'll 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

I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna
What I want, or 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

What am I to do, do with my life?
(You'll 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
