Sometimes I shave my legs and sometimes I don't

Sometimes I comb my hair and sometimes I won't

Depending on how the wind blows, I might even paint my toes

It really just depends on whatever feels good in my soul



(Chorus)

I'm not the average girl from your video

And I ain't built like a supermodel

But I learned to love myself unconditionally

Because I am a queen

I'm not the average girl from your video

My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes

No matter what I'm wearing I will always be

The India Arie



When I look in the mirror and the only one there is me

Every freckle on my face is where it's supposed to be

And I know my Creator didn't make no mistakes on me

My feet, my thighs, my lips, my eyes; I'm loving what I see



(Chorus)



Am I less of a lady if I don't wear pantyhose?

My mama said a lady ain't what she wears but what she knows

But I've drawn a conclusion: it's all an illusion, confusion's the name of the game

A misconception, a mass deception, something's gotta change

Don't be offended, this is all my opinion, ain't nothing that I'm saying law

This is a true confession of a life-learned lesson I was sent here to share with ya'll

So get in where you fit in; go on to shine; clear your mind; now's the time 

Put your salt on the shelf, go on and love yourself cause everything's gonna be all right



(Chorus)



Keep your fancy drinks and your expensive minks; I don't need that to have a good time

Keep your expensive car and your caviar; all I need is my guitar

Keep your Kristal and your pistol; I'd rather have it pretty as a crystal 

Don't need your silicone, I prefer my own, what God gave me is just fine



(Chorus x2: fade out)
