I Am Perfectly Me

If you ask me who I be, I will tell you, I am perfectly me
no, i don't have a lot of junk in my trunk
Nor, do i possess a pair of 44 D's
My hair is not long and flowing and i don't have the fliest gear you see
but if you ask me who i be, i will tell you, i am perfectly me

Nope i don't have the prettiest face
I don't have a 24 inch waist
and after me most men don't chase
but if you ask me who i be, i will tell you, i am perfectly me

I don't have a high powered job or a fancy house up on the hill
I don't have a Benz or a Mazzarratti that's at my disposal to wheel
but if you ask me who I be, i will tell you, I am perfectly me

So many ask the question well why are you so confident and so sure of who you are and why are you always so happy go lucky when your not a superstar and i respond by saying, because none of those things define me or tell you who i really be, but if you ask me, i will tell you, God made me perfectly me.

This is great with the message. It is empowering and well stated. This is a message that would make the world a better place...if we could all just adhere to its guidelines. Let us not bend,shape and mold ourselves for the happiness of those looking upon us from the outside...but let us be us for ourselves truly...and be happy. Thanks for sharing this...and may the kudos be with you. Cheers!!!

So many women want to be someone else because they are not comfortable in their own skin. We have got to start loving who we are and love who God made us to be. Thanks Poeticsyc

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
