Who says


Who says I am afraid? Afraid to show the world the real me Afraid give to the world who I am I have been hiding myself Because I was afraid of people's judgement Calling me a dwarf, a shorty and all Well it's who I am Who says I can't talk? Just because I've been silent Because people underestimated me Telling me that my words were as short as me And as weak as me Well it was hell for me but I grew stronger Who says I am not beautiful A portrait of God's image A blend of God's ingredients An African girl with natural beauty! NO-ONE has a final say in my life Only God does and he says I am perfect just the way I am.
