Feel the heat below my feet I have to go, no time to sleep Can't believe the things you say I turn my head and walk away You make me sick, you make me nervous Times are gone when you would say This is the one and seize the day Times are gone for honesty "My victory is your defeat" Oh can't you see you've been mistaken [Chorus:] In my life I decide and it turns me on How I am, how I live, who I love In my way I feel strong And it turns me on In my life, I decide, I decide All you do, you can't deny it, It's waste of time, waste of time Can I suggest that you invest in something more than hopelessness Before you know, the ride is over [Chorus] It's up to you if you give it up It's up to you if you won't stop [Repeat x2] It's up to you if you give it up, give it up It's up to you if you won't stop It's up to you if you give it up, give it up, It's up to you, it's up to you The record choose that you're dead but you're still living Every time you have died you have been given Another chance to fix your bad attitude And make a move, it's up to you It's up to you if you give it up, give it up [Repeat x3] It's up to you [Repeat x2] Give it up [Repeat x8]
