Lyrics:
What am I to do with my life? (You will find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

@@oh2878 that's not what the original comment meant. Of course she's not talking about the conservatorship they don't let her. She's talking about how she always felt like they don't let her do what she wants or be who she wants to be, that's why she rebelled against everyone

[@emmastone6410]

I feel like this woman NEVER had the chance on CHOOSING her life. She was pushed and forced to do so many uncomfortable projects from the adults taking accountability for her who clearly failed miserably. Look what they did to her. I love her so much I swear I feel like crying whenever I think about what she has and STILL is going through !

[@ilovespicytuna]

Jazmine Newark I agree! I think the pregnancy saved her in a lot of ways... and I wonder if she did it intentionally (yes I know Jamie was 17 at the time) because being 17 and pregnant isn’t acceptable marketing especially in the early 2000s. .... Jamie’s baby is her miracle child.

[@jamc5982]

Britney was not oversexualized like what they did to Jessica Simpson to be like Britney. But the media made her look like a whore. Yes she was provicative but not too sexualized

[@jamc5982]

@THOT Patrol lol ok. everyone can be sexualized and sex sells so Britney was game for it mixing innocence and sexuality but i think there are celebs who are more sexualized like Angelina Jolie. Nevertheless, these women are feminists.

[@parisknight1840]

THOT Patrol you must have never been a 16 year old girl because I’ve seen so many girls wear outfits like that. Jesus Christ the shirt wasn’t even that short it reached her knees as far as I remember.

[@SrDaniel84]

She sang since she was a child, who knows maybe her parents forced her to be an artist and maybe she didn't want to. Or maybe she did want to, but not all by force, and maybe she wanted to enjoy her childhood and adolescence first and then dedicate herself to music, and also she entered an industry in which she is only an employee who follows orders, and that implies that she can't even make her songs the way she wanted...Overprotected and Lucky reflect that she wasn't having a good time despite the money and fame.

I wish I knew the context when I was a kid :(

[@RelaxationRetreatAnytime]

My exact thoughts!

[@pamelajackson69]

This song was written by Max Martin who is responsible for writing or co-writing 23 Billboard Hot 100 number-one songs. He has worked with Britney from the beginning, as well as The Backstreet Boys, N'Sync, Maroon 5, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and many more. Even though this song seems to fit perfectly with what has happened and continues to happen to Britney, in truth it could have been written about any or all of the young singers/performers that he has worked with over the years. I'm sure he has seen more than his fair share of young people being used for the almighty dollar. It's not about protection or overprotection out of love or consideration for the artist. Sadly, it's all about keeping that money rolling in

When she was asking for privacy in her songs. Yes she didn't write it. But she related to it. Britney always said you don't have to write a song to know how you feel it. She chose songs she could relate to it. She has said this many times and this is one of those songs. She is asking for privacy. She just wanted to live a normal life. The media were one of the people who ruined her life. Edit; didn't I tell y'all. Read my comment. I been telling y'all since last year and other comments many years she has been overprotected since she was young. She was telling people for so many years. But no one listened. So sad. I hope she gets her freedom back. I don't care for her to make more music. I just wanna see her happy again.

This generation now will never know how extremely popular, iconic and legendary Britney Spears is. In her prime years, she was everywhere and she was everything (She still is tbh). She was really groundbreaking. She changed the pop genre with her debut song and album. Many critics have countless stated that no artist will ever reach her popularity and iconic level. She is still the best selling teen-age artist of all time. She is truly the last superstar in the music industry. One of the Greatest Entertainers/Artists Of All Time. She is an icon and a living legend. The one and only undisputed Princess of Pop 👑💖👸.

@@aquarispoot from I’ve heard (tho I don’t know if it was a 100% but I’m pretty sure most of it is true or at least based of the truth) she always wanted to do musical theatre. So she started performing and the works to get experience and make a name for herself to get into music theatre easier. She only signed her record label to get even further and wanted to be an Amy Whitehouse type of artist but settled to go for pop as it allowed her to dance as well. The label pushed her to do a baby voice to distinguish her from Christina Aguilera because they had similar vocal tones (look at her younger performances like the ones form the Mickey Mouse club she had a deeper voice then that wouldn’t result in her baby voice naturally) but when she started to take off a be hit her management and family pushed her into the conservative ship. The people in charge of her claim she has dementia but really she doesn’t have dementia (it is a fact that young people can get it I thinks it a 5% chance but I’m not sure so take this statistic with a grain of salt) because the choreography she does on her live performance as well as the fact she is constantly working couldn’t be achieved if she had it.
