I Am That Girl
I am my mom's miracle child
The girl you didn't expect to live
The girl next-door that wasn't going to be successful
yes
I am that girl
I am the girl fighting with and for her weight to be normal
I am that girl running down her dreams
I am that girl searching for happiness
yes
I am that girl
I am that girl that didn't think she was beautiful
I am that girl you judged because I didn't measure up to your expectations
yes
I am that girl with the black skin and nappy hair
The girl you said is not good enough for your son
yes
I am that girl you never gave a chance
yes
I am that girl…but guess what?
I am that girl that will never give up
yes
I am that GIRL
