I Deciede For Me

Share:

I don't remember anyone dying leaving you to run my life
What's this trip running through your head, you're not a mom a pop or even a wife
Go ahead and impress the clowns, you're in a circle of babbling sheep
I see you talking to a friend of yours, was it by chance you were looking at me
You should go away
And take your judgment with you because you decide for you, and I decide for me
Go back to your glittering discos, and take your judgment with you
I think I could understand if you were God up in heaven above

But you're just a goon I try to ignore, you're the hawk that killed the dove

Just why are you so concerned with what goes on, is it really a sin?
I look at you and I say to myself, how could you be from the valley within.

In "I Decide For Me" by Faction, the lyrics revolve around freeing oneself from the control and judgment of others. The singer addresses someone who seems to feel entitled to make decisions for them, even though they have no real authority in their life. The first verse opens with the singer questioning why this person feels the need to run their life, pointing out that nobody has died and left them in charge. The second verse calls out the person's hypocrisy, as they try to impress others while also judging those around them. The chorus then delivers a clear message to this person to leave and take their judgment with them.

I don't remember anyone dying leaving you to run my life
No one has passed away and left you in charge of my actions.

What's this trip running through your head, you're not a mom a pop or even a wife
Why are you so fixated on controlling me when you aren't my parent or my partner?

Go ahead and impress the clowns, you're in a circle of babbling sheep
You can continue to seek approval from those who don't matter, but you're just following the crowd.

I see you talking to a friend of yours, was it by chance you were looking at me
I notice you speaking with someone, and wonder if you were discussing me behind my back.

You should go away
It's best if you leave me alone.

And take your judgment with you because you decide for you, and I decide for me
Keep your opinions to yourself, as I am capable of making my own decisions.

Go back to your glittering discos, and take your judgment with you
Return to the superficial places you came from, and don't bring your criticisms with you.

I think I could understand if you were God up in heaven above
I could forgive your judgment if you were a higher power than me.

But you're just a goon I try to ignore, you're the hawk that killed the dove
Instead, you're just someone I avoid, and you have caused more harm than good like a predator taking out its prey.

Just why are you so concerned with what goes on, is it really a sin?
Why do you care so much about what I do? Is it actually a immoral act?

I look at you and I say to myself, how could you be from the valley within.
As I observe you, I question how someone like you could have originated from the same community as me.
