When I was 17, I did what people told me, uh
I did what my father said, and let my mother mold me
But that was long ago, I'm in
(Control) never gonna stop
(Control) to get what I want
(Control) I got to have a lot
(Control) now I'm all grown up (ah)
ย
First time I fell in love, I didn't know what hit me
So young and so naive, I thought it would be easy
But now I know I've got to take
(Control) now I've got a lot
(Control) to get what I want
(Control) never gonna stop
(Control) now I'm all grown up
Jam, woo-woo
Rebel, that's right
I'm on my own, I'll call my own shots
Thank you
Got my own mind
I wanna make my own decisions
When it has to do with my life, my life
I wanna be the one in control
So let me take you by the hand and lead you on this dance
(Control) is what I've got, because I took a chance
I don't wanna rule the world, just wanna run my life (ooh)
So make your life a little easier
When you get the chance, just take
(Control) (ooh-ooh) now I've got a lot (ooh)
(Control) to get what I want (oh)
(Control) I'm never gonna stop
(Control) now I'm all grown up (ooh)
Free at last
Out here on my own
Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, hee
Now control this, uh
(Control) that's right
(Control) career moves
(Control) I do what's right for me
(Control) and me wants to groove, is that okay? Yeah
Ooh, control
I've got my own mind
Ooh, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Alright, I've got my own mind
Wanna make my own decisions
When it has to do with my life
I wanna be the one in control
