I'm Beautiful My face I speak not about, my love for myself I do, I'm more beautiful than any object, moving, still, never more beautiful than people, I'm equal More beautiful each day, I say, my attitude polished, my tears controlled my out look improved, lessons in love I've been to school, I've learned this much is true, first these words must come from me not you, I'm Beautiful Simply Beautiful!
