Lyrics
WHAT I GOTTA DO
Sometimes I feel like
Everybody thinks that I can?t do anything
But sometimes I know that
I won?t give up the chance to do my thing
Sometimes I feel like
You want me to be at your beckon call
But sometimes I know that
I am ready to give this my all
Can?t you see
That?s how it?s gonna be
That?s how it?s gonna be
CHORUS
Nobody understands
What I?m going through
Think you got me figured out
Well I got news for you
I gotta stand up
For what I think is true
I?m going on my own now
Gotta do what I gotta do
Sometimes I feel like
I?m not that little girl you used to know
And sometimes I know that
You?re not the only one who knew to grow
Can?t you see
That?s how it?s gonna be
That?s how it?s gonna be
CHORUS
Got my priorities in line
Oh, oh, are you getting the message, yeah
I?m gonna help myself this time
Gotta do what I gotta do
CHORUS
Well I got news for you
Well I got news for you
Well I got news for you
Well I got news for you
Well I got news for you
