You Are Not The Boss

Letra

[Verse 1] You were going hard on me Like every word was law I kept shrinking in the doorway Till I couldn't take it anymore [Pre-Chorus] You drew a line across the floor Said I should never cross But I found my voice beneath the noise And counted up the cost [Chorus] I said, “You are not the boss!” Ooh-oh, ohh, woah-oh-oh It's true, you can't keep controlling me I'm done living on your leash I said, “You are not the boss!” Ooh-oh, ohh, woah-oh-oh Take your orders back, set me free You don't get to own me [Verse 2] You knew exactly where to press To make me doubt my name But the lock was never on the door I was the one who stayed [Pre-Chorus] Now every rule you handed down Is burning in the sink I don't need your permission To decide what I should think [Chorus] I said, “You are not the boss!” Ooh-oh, ohh, woah-oh-oh It's true, you can't keep controlling me I'm done living on your leash I said, “You are not the boss!” Ooh-oh, ohh, woah-oh-oh Take your orders back, set me free You don't get to own me [Bridge] No more waiting for a sign No more asking if I'm right You can raise your voice all night I won't step back this time [Final Chorus] I said, “You are not the boss!” Ooh-oh, ohh, woah-oh-oh It's true, you can't keep controlling me Watch me take back everything I said, “You are not the boss!” Ooh-oh, ohh, woah-oh-oh Take your orders back, set me free You don't get to own me [Outro] Ooh-oh, ohh, woah-oh-oh You don't get to own me
