You are here in this world, and I love you my son
You grow so beautifully, pride fills up my soul
Now I often, I will know better so just do as I say
I have a plan that's laid before you so just do it all my way

No one will tell you (how or where to live), no one will care
Hell no!

Now there will be many advisors always to be found
And the critics, oh even more, omniscience all around
Still, there will be no one to give a helping hand
Oh no, there will be no one for you to rely on

No one will tell you (how or where to live), no one will care

There is no such power which will show you
Where and how you should live your life
No one can say which way you should go
Which I guess, this is better
Yes it can be, there is nothing to regret
When you stumble you can get back up you can run
Nobody will forbid you, chase your own dreams
Show the ace of spades, seize the day, carpe diem

No one will tell you (how or where to live), no one will care
Fuck no!

I'm so grateful God has sent you to us and he has given you free will
Your own mind and intelligence, your heart and soul know what to do
When and where you go on this journey
Searching for the meaning of life
Your heart and soul yeah, it is a good sign
That you can be all I wish of you

No one will tell you (how or where to live), no one will care
Oh my God!

No one will tell you (how or where to live), no one will care
