People stare at me with confused eyes They ask to know where my secret lies They wonder where I found my gait They love the way I articulate The softness of my arms My captivating youthful charm: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman I walk with a quirky poise People whisper, and it's a delightful noise The smile on my lips The curve of my hips They say I've always been this cool But honey, do not be fooled: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman They see fire in my eyes They say I'm for keeps 'cause I'm a prize There is a grace in my vibes Something good to imbibe The warmth I bring The joy I bring: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman There is something about me How did I come to be? The reason behind my womanly pride The reason for my sedate stride My aura, as that of a beloved emperor My shoulders high like that of a conqueror: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman They say I am a mystery There's definitely more to me In the stillness of my mind In the presence of my kind I become more of the woman I am meant to be The best of me you are yet to see: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman

I AM MY WOMAN
People stare at me with confused eyes They ask to know where my secret lies They wonder where I found my gait They love the way I articulate The softness of my arms My captivating youthful charm: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman I walk with a quirky poise People whisper, and it's a delightful noise The smile on my lips The curve of my hips They say I've always been this cool But honey, do not be fooled: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman They see fire in my eyes They say I'm for keeps 'cause I'm a prize There is a grace in my vibes Something good to imbibe The warmth I bring The joy I bring: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman There is something about me How did I come to be? The reason behind my womanly pride The reason for my sedate stride My aura, as that of a beloved emperor My shoulders high like that of a conqueror: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman They say I am a mystery There's definitely more to me In the stillness of my mind In the presence of my kind I become more of the woman I am meant to be The best of me you are yet to see: This is my woman The woman I have become All these and more, are my woman
