Ayo Beautiful

You're lookin' in the mirror
But you can't see yourself
What you see is a reflectionOf somebody else

Now, if you wanna find you
You gotta look underneath that shell
That's where you find true beauty
That of a precious pearl

Don't you know you're beautiful
Just the way you are?
You are beautiful, ooh
You are beautiful
Just the way you are
You are beautiful, ooh

She wants to be like her
And he would love to be like him
You wanna be like me
Why can't we just be who we are?

When I was young
I wanted my hair straight
But the frizzy look wouldn't suit my face
I'd blow it out but that wasn't enough

I took chemicals to break my hair all up
Then I knew that God gave me a sign
I had to love myself so I could shine
I would let my fro grow back

And wear fizz to comb instead
And put on a shirt that said
"Black and proud"

Beautiful, just the way you are
You are beautiful, ooh
You are beautiful
Just the way you are
You are beautiful, ooh

You are beautiful
Just the way you are
You are beautiful, ooh
You are beautiful
Just the way you are
You are beautiful, ooh

Your lips
Your nose
Your cheeks
Your eyes

Your hair
Your skin
Your ears
Your smile

Your lips
Your nose
Your cheeks
Your eyes

Your hair
Your skin
Your ears
Your smile

You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You are beautiful

You are beautiful
You are beautiful
You are beautiful
You are beautiful
