From way back in time
A time more civilized
Nations decorate the skin
To express what's withinAs a part of their culture
Like wisdom in a book
It wasn't just a fashion
It was art made with passionToday still people say
Tattoos are for scum
But why be so affraid?
For so much beauty madeMy skin is my canvas
My body, here it is
It's an open field for joy
See this needle, it's my toyIt's my body, it's my life, it's my own choice
Tattoos as expression, it's just a different voice
It's my body, it's my life, it's part of me
Tattoos as expression, which means I'm freeThe ink which makes a tattoo
Doesn't infect common sense
It's a dignified creation
Why call that mutilation?My skin is just a cover
The real me, it's inside
So if you wanna judge me
Look beyond and you'll seeIt's my body, it's my life, it's my own choice
Tattoos as expression, it's just a different voice
It's my body, it's my life, it's part of me
Tattoos as expression, which means I'm freeFrom way back in time, till the day of today
Decoration of skin, the voice from withinIt's my body, it's my life, it's my own choice
Tattoos as expression, it's just a different voice
It's my body, it's my life, it's part of me
Tattoos as expression, which means I'm free
I am free!
