Beauty

Never been the kind that the world defined
As being some trendy, top, super model, no
Never been the one that you could call a swan
When though my mama said that they oughta, yeah, she did

So say a prayer for the girl with the hand me downs
And the pig tails in her hair
One for me, one for you 'cause we never knew
That God don't even care

If you've got the walk and you've got the talk
If you've got the stuff that they dream of
But there'll be a beautiful day, yeah yeah

When I, I'm gonna be a beauty
I'm gonna see God y'all and I'm gonna be a beauty
Tell me you believe it

I'm a long way from home but I'm passing through
Seem like everything is so artificial
'Cause everything that we see in the magazines
Or even on TV is so superficial

It's like a virus I can't describe it
How shallow we can be
We say true beauty comes from the inside
But all that we can see

Is she's got the walk and he's got the talk
And they've got the stuff the world dreams of
But there will be a beautiful day, yeah yeah

And I, I'm gonna be a beauty
I'm gonna see God y'all and I'm gonna be a beauty
Tell me you believe it

Said what you see ain't what you get, no, no
'Cause you ain't seen nothin' yet
What they see ain't who you are
'Cause you're gonna be a shining star

'Cause I, I'm gonna be a beauty
Should I, I'm gonna be a beauty
I said I, I'm gonna be a beauty
Said I, I'm gonna be a beauty
Tell me you believe it
