What you starin' in the mirror for?
Tellin' yourself youre ugly
What you wearin those high heels for
When they're torturin your feet?Why you puttin' all that make-up on?
Hidin your pretty face
Blowin' all your money in that salon
Tryin' to find your placeIn this world you fit in
Or you're out
And you're made to believe
That this is what it's all aboutAnd don't you know
Real beauty shines from within
It's what you're wearin under your skinYour perfect imperfections
Led you in the wrong direction
And made you think that you are incomplete
But looks are only skin deepWhy you flippin' through the magazine
Tryin to be those girls?
Gettin' all frustrated
But it's not the end of the worldSo what if you can't get into a size three
You're beautiful to me
Stop tryin to be Tyra's top model
Girl, go and find your own way to followIn this world you fit in
Or you're out
And you're made to believe
That this is what it's all aboutAnd don't you know
Real beauty shines from within
It's what you're wearin under your skinYour perfect imperfections
Led you in the wrong direction
And made you think that you are incomplete
But looks are only skin deepFrom the sidewalk to the boardwalk
To the catwalk, don't talk
About the way you walk but it's not your fault
So if the girls talk, watch you like a hawkThey love to hate and they can't wait
To get inside and make you cry
Cry, cry, cry, cryJust let 'em know that you hold your own
Now bein you is not all wrong
Do your thing, let your light shine
They'll come around in God's timeAnd if they don't just let it be
When they stop bein shallow, then they'll see
Girl, I'm tellin' you, come on
Just be your selfIn this world you fit in
Or you're out
And you're made to believe
That this is what it's all aboutAnd don't you know
Real beauty shines from within
It's what you're wearin under your skinYour perfect imperfections
Led you in the wrong direction
And made you think that you are incomplete
But looks are only skin deep, ohh, ohh, yeah
