Coming back into my body Every inch of flesh Building on my bones Strong enough to run Strong enough to dance Strong enough to smile Strong enough to laugh Looking in the mirror and seeing myself again Through clear, hazel eyes with blue on the brim And I think to myself My reflection is beautiful My reflection is clean My reflection is calm My reflection is kind My reflection is me And I love my crooked smile And I love my tiny waist And I love my sweet hips And I love my big heart And the way I laugh It’s like God is blessing my body with a thousand kisses every time someone tells a joke When I feel myself Coming back into my body And even if I’m just some ***** headed, cherry sipping, Coca Cola drinking wildflower Even if I’m just someone’s woman, Someone’s daughter, someone’s sister, and someone’s friend I can feel myself Coming back into my body Where I am free

Coming back into my body Every inch of flesh Building on my bones Strong enough to run Strong enough to dance Strong enough to smile Strong enough to laugh Looking in the mirror and seeing myself again Through clear, hazel eyes with blue on the brim And I think to myself My reflection is beautiful My reflection is clean My reflection is calm My reflection is kind My reflection is me And I love my crooked smile And I love my tiny waist And I love my sweet hips And I love my big heart And the way I laugh It’s like God is blessing my body with a thousand kisses every time someone tells a joke When I feel myself Coming back into my body And even if I’m just some ***** headed, cherry sipping, Coca Cola drinking wildflower Even if I’m just someone’s woman, Someone’s daughter, someone’s sister, and someone’s friend I can feel myself Coming back into my body Where I am free
