tell me that I have potential
tell me I can do it if I try
tell me about my skin
tell me my skin shines

tell me I can be an anesthesiologist
tell me I can save lives
tell me that I am valued
tell me that I have rights

tell me to finish my education
tell me knowledge is power
tell me to use my voice
tell me it too has power

tell me I’m a woman
tell me I can be whatever I want
tell me I can make my own money
tell me I can flaunt

tell me I’m talented
tell me I’m art
tell me my beauty
tell me it races hearts
