This Skin I'm In

Location

I think best when I'm alone

I smile bigger, I dance crazier

I sing louder, I feel better 

Because when I'm aoone no one's there to judge.

No one's there to laugh.

No one's there to make fun, on my behalf.

I've never been ashamed. 

I've never been embarrassed.

I'm in love with who I am.
And with the world, I'll share it.
 
I'm not a size two.
I don't have pretty long hair pouring down my back. 
I don't have a stack of cash, with fame.
But i'm a good person with a good heart,
And i'm proud of that.
 
Comfort is the key to confidence.
Comfort is the key to happiness.
I find comfort in the skin I'm in.
I find comfort in the life I live.
Because God has bless me with it all.
I'm obsessed with the young lady I'm becoming
I love myself, my flaws and all.
 
I'm not a size two.
I don't have pretty long hair pouring down my back. 
I don't have a stack of cash, with fame.
But i'm a good person with a good heart,
And i'm  proud of that.
 
I love rainy days, and I love the winter because of snow.
I'm not a party person. I'm a very simple girl.
I'm lazy,  altough I have so much to offer to this world.
I'm beyond ambitious
I'm dedicated and my determintion is sky high.
My life is far from perfect
Constant crazy things occur
But I don't ask God "Why"
I just go with the flow.
I keep on pushing through
My heart contiues to beat
Simply because I know better days await
I long for the spontaneous future of my life
Not revolvining around time or a date.
I like simplicity
I'd rather not let a letter from the alphabet determine my fate.
 
My thoughts fill my mind
They become who I am.
Our thoughts make us unique.
Our mind is what makes us different.
It makes us stand out
And for that, everyone should be proud.
I love my thoughts.
I love my mind.
If I could choose to be any girl in this world,
This Skin I'm in would be just fine.
 
I'm not a size two.
I don't have pretty long hair pouring down my back. 
I don't have a stack of cash, with fame.
But i'm a good person with a good heart,
And i'm proud of that.
