Beautiful

You're looking in the mirror

But you can't see yourself

What you see is a reflection

Of somebody else

Now if you wanna fight you

You gotta look underneath that shell

It's where you'll find true beauty

That of a precious pearl

Don't you know you're beautiful

Just the way you are

You are, beautiful

You are beautiful

Just the way you are

You are, beautiful

She wants you to be like her

And he would love to be like you

You wanna be like me

Why can't we just be who we are?

When I was young I wanted my hair straight

Thought the frizzy look wouldn't suit my face

I'd blow it out but that wasn't enough

Until chemicals would break my hair, oh-oh

But then I knew God gave me a sign

I had to love myself so I could shine

I would let my fro grow back

And wear a fisted comb instead

And put on a shirt that said: Black and proud

Beautiful

Just the way you are

You are, beautiful

You are beautiful

Just the way you are

You are, beautiful

You are beautiful

Just the way you are

You are, beautiful

You are beautiful

Just the way you are

You are, beautiful

Your lips, your nose

Your cheeks, your eyes

Your hair, your skin

Your ears, your smile

Your lips, your nose

Your cheeks, your eyes

Your hair, your skin

Your ears, your smile

You're beautiful

You're beautiful

You're beautiful

You're beautiful

You're beautiful

You're beautiful

You're beautiful

You're beautiful
