Saturday steppin' into the club 
The music makes me wanna tell the DJ 
Turn It Up 
I feel the energy all around 
And my body can't stop moving to the sound 

But I can tell that you're watching me 
And you're probably gonna write what you didn't see 
Well I just need a little space to breathe 
Can you please respect my privacy 

[Bridge:] 
Why can't you just let me 
Do the things I wanna do 
I just wanna be me 
I don't understand why 
Would you wanna bring me down 
I'm only having fun 
I'm gonna live my life 
(but not the way you want me to) 
 [bad word] ] 
I'm tired [bad word] starting 
I'm sick of being followed 
I'm tired of people lying 
Saying what they want about me 
Why can't they back up off me 
Why can't they let me live 
I'm gonna do it my way 
Take this for just what it is 

Here we are back up in the club 
People taking pictures 
Don't you think they get enough 
I just wanna be all over the floor 
And throw my hands up in the air to a beat like (What?) 

I've gotta say respectfully 
I would like it if you take the cameras off of me 
'Cause I just want a little room to breathe 
Can you please respect my privacy

I just need to free my mind (my mind) 
Just wanna dance and have a good time (good time) 

I'm tired [bad word] (rumors) 
Followed (followed, followed, followed, followed, followed) 

What they (follow) me 
Why can't they (they they they-they-they) let me live 

Take this for just what it is
