India Arie'S song video


Sometimes I shave my legs and sometimes I don't
Sometimes I comb my hair and sometimes I won't
Depend on how the wind blows I might even paint my toes
It really just depends on whatever feels good in my soul

I'm not the average girl from your video
and I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be the india arie

When I look in the mirror and the only one there is me
Every freckle on my face is where it's supposed to be
And I know our creator didn't make no mistakes on me
My feet, my thighs, my lips, my eyes; I'm lovin' what I see

I'm not the average girl from your video
and I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be the
india arie

Am I less of a lady if I don't wear pantyhose?
My mama said a lady ain't what she wears but, what she knows
But, I've drawn a conclusion, it's all an illusion, confusion's the name of the
game
A misconception, a vast deception
Something's gotta change
but,Don't be offended this is all my opinion
ain't nothing that I'm sayin law
This is a true confession of a life learned lesson I was sent here to share with
y'all
So get in where you fit in go on and shine
Clear your mind, now's the time
Put your salt on the shelf
Go on and love yourself
'Cuz everything's gonna be all right

I'm not the average girl from your video
and I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I Learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be the india arie

Keep your fancy drinks and your expensive minks
I don't need that to have a good time
Keep your expensive car and your caviar
All I need is my guitar
Keep your Kristal and your pistol
I'd rather have a pretty piece of crystal
Don't need your silicone I prefer my own
What God gave me is just fine

I'm not the average girl from your video
and I ain't built like a supermodel
But, I learned to love myself unconditionally
Because I am a queen
I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I'm wearing I will always be india arie

  • India Arie is a woman a force to recond with. Even though, her force is suttle. India has been one of my favorites for years, but I haven't listend to this cd for at least 5 years. Now listening to it, I can remember exactly what I would do when listening to this song. I would dance in my room, open all the windows and let the breeze fill my hair, like this song fills my heart. Come on now people, keep it plain, like India. Be Blessed! :)

  • beautiful person and beautiful lyrics. It makes me sad and lose hope in society today, why isn't she just as acclaimed by the media as lets say alicia keys? INDIA YOU ARE AMAZING AND CONTINUE TO MAKE MEANINGFUL MUSIC FOR YOUR FANS AND FOR THE PEOPLE. THIS IS THE TRUTH.

  • I love your song. We have people now in days calling women out of our names so its a good change to hear such a incerdible and inspiriational singer. I love u and im only 12. your a great leader.

  • I used to listen to this song a LOT!!! I adore it!!

  • i wish theyd bring back half and half... miss that show

  • Praise the LORD! I would listen to this song when I was hanging out in the world and it would make me feel good. I was around 19 or 20 and I was hustling, feeling myself and beginning to go in the wrong crowd. I carried a gun, wore tight clothing and got drunk a whole lot, but everytime I heard this song, it would make me feel real good on the inside, because this song is who I really wanted to step up and be. She was not hating or judging, it was just real. GOD BLESS HER AND ME AND YOU!!! UBU

  • @erwhit14 she's not plain at all

  • love her and this song!
