It's your life Thing may not always go right, for you In those times Just leave it behind Cause sometimes you gotta play the game Just to survive Without losing yourself It's a fight, it's true It takes time Don't have all the answers No matter how hard it gets Hold on to what's inside Don't never let nobody bring you down girl Don't never let nobody tear your world apart Look in the mirror and see who you are Beautiful U R In the dark The paint chips have waited your heart So deep Can't you see See the light in the distance Open up your eyes, look, look to the sky And believe There's much more to life when you free That's the key And in time You will find all the answers Don't have to loose your pride Hold on to what's inside Don't never let nobody bring you down girl Don't never let nobody tear your world apart Look in the mirror and see who you are Beautiful U R Don't never let nobody bring you down girl Don't never let nobody tear your world apart Look in the mirror and see who you are Beautiful U R Don't care what they say anymore There's no time to be insecure I leave it all at the door She staring at him in the face She's taking it day by day I'm finally on my way Don't never let nobody bring you down girl Don't never let nobody tear your world apart Look in the mirror and see who you are Beautiful U R Don't never let nobody bring you down girl Don't never let nobody tear your world apart Look in the mirror and see who you are Beautiful U R Beautiful U R [Repeat: x3]
