This is a story about control, my control Control of what i say, control of what i do And this time i'm gonna do it my way I hope you enjoy this as much as i do Are we ready? i am? cause it's all about control And i've got lots of it When i was 17, i did what people told me Did what my father said, and let my mother mold me But that was long ago Chorus: 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 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 go to take... Repeat chorus That's right, i'm on my own, I'll call my own shots, thank you Bridge: 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 Cause what i've got is because i took a chance I don't wanna rule the world Just wanna run my life So make your life a little easier When you get the chance just take... Repeat chorus Free at last, out here on my own Now control this That's right, career moves I do what's right for me And me wants to groove Is that ok? Repeat bridge Hop to it I'm in control (and i love it, that's right) Control, now i've got a lot Control, now i'm all grown up I'm in control, i'm in control Don't make me lose it
