You can lie or tell the truth
If you're old or in your youth
Open your mind can't you see?
You can control your destiny
Think -for yourself
Live - the way you want
Do -things your own way
Think for yourself everyday
Don't let friends think for you,
If you do, you're stupid too
Independence from within,
Stand your ground and don't give in
I don't care what people say
You've got to do things your own way
Independence from within
Stand your ground and don't give in
