People can never tell you who you are, if you don't let them. Sometimes we haven't found ourselves, but we still are not the sum of other peoples definitions. This song is about celebrating who you are, because we are all made by God and last time I checked he didn't produce junk..lol.. We are all beautiful inside and out and that should be what the world sees.. :-)

Well everywhere I look all I see
Are you beautiful people, looking back at me
I can’t even walk outside my door
Without seeing a creature, looks like it fell through heaven’s floor..

….. oh… through heaven’s floor

On every corner when I turn on my TV
Hell even the people in my dreams are prettier than me
But I won’t cry, and I won’t weep
I’m gonna hold my head up high no matter what the world sees.

Chorus
C’mon stand up be proud of who you are
Honey they might be beautiful but they’re not who you are
You gotta work it, throw it on down
When you walk into a room you’ve gotta snap those heads around
You gotta look inside, that’s where your beauty be
Dust it off, sugar let it shine, let it be what the world sees

Now there’ve been times baby when I’ve said
Enough is enough I wanna trade in my head
Sure my body ain’t gonna cause no wreck
I used to wanna be beautiful but now honey I’m over it

Cause we’re all born naked and we’re all gonna die along
But I’m gonna have a blast honey till they call me home, baby
Listen up, baby listen what I say
Well they might be happy, but I am down right gay

(oh my…)

Chorus
C’mon stand up be proud of who you are
Honey they might be beautiful but they’re not who you are
You gotta work it, throw it on down
When you walk into a room you’ve gotta snap those heads around
You gotta look inside, that’s where your beauty be
Dust it off, sugar let it shine, let it be what the world sees

Repeat Chorus
