We have free will to the extent that we know we exist, as well as to somewhat explain why we do certain things in our life. Having no free will would you being a puppet with no ability to comprehend that you exist (like you dreaming)How exactly does a human have free will? Because as far as we know were a bunch of atoms that have no other option but to obey the laws of physics, the universe is deterministic
However, we our bound by fear, ego (which operates on two axes; pleasure and pain), and other things like genes. Everything you do in life is rooted in the fear of a painful state. All living species prioritize a hedonistic lifestyle; we prioritize our survival over anything else.
We do not have libertarian free will like the Biblical God has. So yes, life is deterministic.
