Verse 1
Sometimes I shave my legs and sometimes I donâ??t
Sometimes I comb my hair and sometimes I wonâ??t
Depend of how the wind blows I might even paint my toes
It really just depends on whatever feels good in my soul

Chorus
Iâ??m not the average girl from your video
And I ainâ??t built like a supermodel
But I learned to love myself unconditionally,
Because I am a queen

I not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what Iâ??m wearing I will always be
India.Arie

Verse 2
When I look in the mirror and the only one there is me
Every freckle on my face is where itâ??s suppose to be
And I know my creator didnâ??t make no mistakes on me
My feet, my thighs, my Lips, my eyes, Iâ??m loving what I see

Chorus

Verse 3
Am I less of a lady if I donâ??t where panty hose
My momma said a lady ainâ??t what she wears but what she knowsâ?¦
But Iâ??ve drawn the conclusion, itâ??s all an illusion
Confusionâ??s the name of the game
A misconception, a vast deception,
Something got to change

Now donâ??t be offended this is all my opinion
Ainâ??t nothing that Iâ??m saying law
This is a true confession
Of a life learned lesson
I was sent here to share with y'all
So get in when you fit in
Go on and shine
Clear your mind
Nowâ??s the time
Put your salt on the shelf
Go on and love yourself
â??Cause everythingâ??s gonna be alright

Chorus

Out
Keep your fancy drink, and your expensive minks
I donâ??t need that to have a good time
Keep your expensive cars and your caviar
Allâ??s I need is my guitar

Keep your crystal and your pistol
Iâ??d rather have a pretty piece of crystal
Donâ??t need you silicone, I prefer my own
What god gave me is just fineâ?¦

Chorus
