these lyrics are written BY ME. nothing was taken from the official translation.
this has to be the haarrdest cover i've ever done. i normally don't do rock songs, but i got some lyrics stuck in my head while i was listening to the original and decided to give it a try.
it's still VERY rough and raw. i do not record in a professional studio, so my voice is not going to sound perfect either. lots of parts need work, but i am overall very pleased.
this is also dedicated to my bff arianna, because i believe she can make something great of herself and that she shoudn't have to listen to the opinions of others on how she lives her life. i love you babygirl! stay strong!
follow along;
why does there have to be so many rules
decided by somebody else?
does anybody follow these rules?
i cannot be the girl that you want
can i have a word with you? it'll only take a minute, please
listen to the words that are coming from my lips
i don't want to be the girl you see inside your little fantasies
i live my life my way and you will not stop me
suddenly i feel a crack
breaking through the walls of truth
i am who i am and no one else
i tried to tell you once but
you never listened to me
i live my life the way i want to, and i don't care
your words no longer hurt me
i'm gonna make it on my own
why does there have to be so many rules
decided by somebody else?
does anybody follow these rules?
i cannot be the girl that you want
why are you trying so hard, to force your little dreams on me
i will not be the girl you always wanted to have
i live my life my way and i won't stop no matter what you say
i'm powerful and you will eventually back down
i'm fearless and i'll take the chance
of losing you to gain my dream
i am who i am and no one else
i tried to tell you once but
you never listen to me
i walk alone and i don't need anybody else
your words no longer phase me
i'm gonna make it on my own
i'm not gonna follow anymore rules
that's not how i want to live my life
from now on, i'm gonna make my own rules
i will never be the girl that you want
listen to me, i wrote this song just for you
so you'd finally get it into your head (whoa)
i will never listen to you anymore
it's only fair because you still ignore me (whoa)
i promise i will never mention you again
why does there have to be so many rules
decided by somebody else?
does anybody follow these rules?
i cannot be the girl that you want
i'm not gonna follow anymore rules
that's not how i want to live my life
from now on, i'm gonna make my own rules
i will never be the girl that you want
(whoa, yeah)
(ooh, yeah)
i hope you all enjoy it. if you do, please subscribe for new covers in the future!
please don't be rude!
