lyrics

She sees a model in a magazine and she pleads, can I look like her?
She's heard her mother's shame filled words, and
She's learned not to love herself
She's tried to change to be the same as everybody else, but

CHORUS
Beauty's not a commodity
Beauty's what we outta be seeing when we look in the mirror
Beauty's not a lottery
Beauty's part of our legacy and we're
Born to be ... Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful
Born to be Beautiful

She shares her grandmother's pale blue eyes
Her mother's crooked smile and her freckles on her father's side
She's one of a kind, irreplaceable find money can never buy

CHORUS
Beauty's not a commodity
Beauty's what we outta be seeing when we look in the mirror
Beauty's not a lottery
Beauty's part of our legacy and we're
Born to be ... Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful
Born to be Beautiful

REPEAT

OUTRO
Born to be Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful
Born to be Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful
Beautiful
