Look at me what do you see
Do you see a tomboy wannabe
Or do you see a girl who too nice to be
Honestly when you look at me
I don’t care what you see cause you ain't me
See when I look in the mirror
I see a girl who smiles when things are tough.
I see a girl who makes others laugh when she can’t herself.
What do you see now
See you so quick to judge me by
My looks, my walk, my talk
But I’ll be so nice to just push aside
Cause time flies too quickly to waste
See if I tell you my story of what
I’ve been through you probably would be shocked
Of how I’m standing before you
See if it wasn’t easy to get where I am now
I could’ve pulled that trigger
Or used that knife but I choose to
Stand before you so you can
hear this and see me
Not to just see me
But see me
I want you to look hard in my eyes
Tell me what you see.
