Lyrics
You don’t own me
– Awungiphathi
You don’t own me
– Awungiphathi
Well, let’s go
– Ake sihambe
But I’m Gerald and I can always have just what I want
– Kodwa ngingugerald futhi ngingahlala nginalokho engikufunayo
She’s the baddest I would love to flaunt
– Uyindoda embi kunazo zonke engingathanda ukuziqhayisa ngayo
Take her shopping, you know Yves Saint Laurent
– Thatha shopping wakhe, uyazi Yves Saint Laurent
But nope, she ain’t with it though
– Kodwa cha, akanalo
All because she got her own dough
– Konke lokhu kungenxa yokuthi unenhlama yakhe
Boss bossed if you don’t know
– Boss bossed uma ungazi
She could never ever be a broke hoe
– Wayengasoze abe isiswebhu esiphukile
You don’t own me
– Awungiphathi
I’m not just one of your many toys
– Angiyena nje omunye wamathoyizi akho amaningi
You don’t own me
– Awungiphathi
Don’t say I can’t go with other boys
– Ungasho ukuthi angikwazi ukuhamba nabanye abafana
Don’t tell me what to do
– Ungangitsheli ukuthi ngenzeni
And don’t tell me what to say
– Ungangitsheli ukuthi ngithini
Please, when I go out with you
– Ngicela, lapho ngiphuma nawe
Don’t put me on display
– Ungangibeki embukisweni
You don’t own me
– Awungiphathi
Don’t try to change me in any way
– Ungazami ukungishintsha nganoma iyiphi indlela
You don’t own me
– Awungiphathi
Don’t tie me down ’cause I’d never stay
– Ungangibophi ngoba angisoze ngahlala
Don’t tell me what to do
– Ungangitsheli ukuthi ngenzeni
And don’t tell me what to say
– Ungangitsheli ukuthi ngithini
Please, when I go out with you
– Ngicela, lapho ngiphuma nawe
Don’t put me on display
– Ungangibeki embukisweni
Re-really though, honestly
– Nokho, ngempela, ngokwethembeka
I get bored of basic (no)
– I get bored of basic (cha)
She’s the baddest, straight up vicious, texting her and asking her
– Uyindoda embi kunazo zonke, eqondile enonya, emthumelela imiyalezo futhi embuza
If she’s alone and if she’d send some pictures, she said no (what)
– Uma eyedwa futhi uma ethumela izithombe, wathi cha (yini)
Well goddamn, she said come over and see it for yourself
– Yebo, wathi woza uzozibonela ngokwakho
Never asking for your help, independent woman
– Ungalokothi ucele usizo lwakho, owesifazane ozimele
She ain’t for the shelf
– Akayena oweshalofu
Nah, she’s the one
– Yebo, nguye
Smoke with her until the (ah)
– Bhema naye kuze (ah)
Stayin’ up until we see the sun
– Until kuze kube yilapho sibona ilanga
Baddest ever, I swear she do it better than I’ve ever seen it done
– Okubi kakhulu, ngiyafunga ukuthi uzokwenza kangcono kunalokho engake ngakubona kwenziwa
Never borrow, she ain’t ever loan
– Ungalokothi uboleke, akalokothi aboleke
That’s when she told me she ain’t
– Yilapho angitshela khona ukuthi akayena
Never ever ever ever gonna be owned
– Ngeke neze ube ngumnikazi
I don’t tell you what to say
– Angikutsheli ukuthi uthini
I don’t tell you what to do
– Angikutsheli ukuthi wenzeni
So just let me be myself
– Ngakho ngivumele ngibe yimi
That’s all I ask of you
– Yilokho kuphela engikucelayo kuwe
I’m young and I love to be young
– Ngisemncane futhi ngiyakuthanda ukuba mncane
And I’m free and I love to be free
– Futhi ngikhululekile futhi ngiyakuthanda ukuba ngikhululekile
To live my life the way I want
– Ukuze ngiphile ukuphila kwami ngendlela engifuna ngayo
To say and do whatever I please
– Ukusho nokwenza noma yini engiyithandayo
Hey, hey (you don’t own me)
– Hey, hey (awungiphathi)
Oh, no (okay)
– Oh, cha (kulungile)
Oh, no, no (you don’t own me)
– Oh, cha, cha (awungiphathi)
Oh, no, no, no
– Oh, cha, cha, cha
Don’t, do don’t
– Ungenzi, ungenzi
Hey (you don’t own me)
– Hey (awungiphathi)
But just know, you never met somebody like me before though
– Kodwa yazi nje, awukaze uhlangane nomuntu onjengami ngaphambili
(You don’t own me)
– (Awungiphathi)
Easy
– Easy
You don’t own me
– Awungiphathi
