FLAWLESS


They ask how I woke up today.

I turn around and say, "Flawless."

That may sound a little cocky,

but I'm just being honest.

You see, I've grown to love myself

in every single way.

And I always tell myself,

"Don't care what people say!"

They see your flawnessness and just wanna see you down.

I take the negativity and turn it back around.

They don't see the message behind my style and the way I dress.

There's really not a message, if I must confess.

I just try to be different and stand out from the rest.

I may not be perfect, but I wake up, flawless.
