Always waitin' for someone

To make me happy, pick me up

I realize that someone is me

What you call life, that ain't livin'

Bless the child that's got his own

It's my season, now I stand alone

Just thought that I would let you know

Some things you just can't control





Should I wear my hair in a ponytail?

Should I dress myself up in chanel?

Do I measure me by what you think?

Absolutely not, absolutely not

If I go to work in a mini-skirt

Am I givin' you the right to flirt?

I won't compromise my point of view

Absolutely not, absolutely not



Told myself I won't complain

But some things have got to change

Not gon' be a victim of

All your social push and shove

Right or wrong, you judge the same

My picture never fit your frame

What you thought, you'll never know

You can't see me with your mind closed







Now I see, life means more to me

More than fancy clothes

More than you'll ever know

All the ugly words that I heard you say

Made me stronger everyday

Now I live my life for me







Oh, ooh

Woah, oh, ooh

All my ladies say

Oh, ooh

Woah, oh, ooh

Absolutely not, absolutely not

All my ladies say

Oh, ooh

Woah, oh, ooh

All my ladies say

Absolutely not, absolutely not
