I Am Beautiful - Regine Velasquez

I see a face it smiles but tears are welling up inside

Behind the curtains there is so much more to me that hide

I move along though things go wrong no giving up

So I put my make up on and suddenly my fears subside

With heels so high I rise

Leaving all my doubts behind

I dance along

Singing my own song because I can

But people make me feel I’m never good enough

Flawed, I make mistakes, I might as well give up

Shadows blinding, taking me back to start

I choose to follow the beat of my heart

Shine a light on me I want the world to see

I’m alive and free with scars and insecurities

I can be whoever I want to be

From broken to brave

I am beautiful… uh-oh…

I am beautiful… uh-oh…

Beneath my strength and courage battles I had to endure

Had to overcome the pain and sorrow

Hope became obscure

I powered through

I found the light within

And kept believing

And there are times I feel like they don’t understand

Quick to judge, they speak as if my life is in their hands

Criticize and think their comments paralyze

I know better than to listen to their lies

Shine a light on me I want the world to see

I believe in my unique abilities

I can be whoever I want to be

From broken to brave

It’s the Queen that makes the crown

Take the throne and hold your ground

Unleash the power that’s inside you

Be proud, step out

You’re meant to be extraordinary

Born to reign

Shine a light on me I want the world to see

I’m alive and free scars and insecurities

I can be whoever I want to be

From broken to brave

Shine a light on me I want the world to see

I believe in my unique abilities

I can be whoever I want to be

From broken to brave

I am beautiful

Uh-oh… beautiful…

Uh-oh… beautiful…

Uh-oh… beautiful…
