I Do What I Want

I Do What I Want
whether you like it or not.
You can't always tell me
what I can or cannot do.
Maybe you can ... but
will I listen to your desires?

Sometimes I know that you
always want the best out of me,
but sometimes you can get
a little out of hand.

I may not know everything by now,

but you do not have to protect me
every second of my life.
Let me learn from my mistakes
even if I do it repeatedly.
Don't be angry for not listening
to your requests, your desires,
your hopes and dreams ...
because maybe, in the future,
I will become someone
you will not expect in life.
Someone not like you.
But maybe, if you get lucky,
I'll become someone
you will be proud of
no matter what.
