Brave

Do they think I'm pretty
Do they wanna take me home
It's just a preference
What a pity
Will I always be alone?

Look I exist
Stretch marks, ripples in my cheeks and thighs
Still I resist
Keep on telling myself little lies

Next week I'll change it, I swear it
But most days I just grin and bear it

Fifty pounds ago
I was still not their cup of tea
Jagged little pill
They don't sleep with big girls like me

Try to cover the trouble parts
Now when I don't, the rumbling starts
Oh my God ain't she

Brave
Don't tell her she should feel pretty
She's brave

Try to exist
In the body that I got now
Still I resist
Hoping it'll change somehow

Yesterday I asked for a new skin to borrow
But I'll be rocking a bikini tomorrow
And they'll say
Oh my God ain't she

Brave
Don't tell her she should feel worthy
She's brave

Wiggle, squish, and jiggle
Workin' on loving you baby
Bounce and roll and ripple
You're a part of a strong lady

I'll be dancing, on my floor
Getting sore, growing more
Wishing a way back to before
Trying to ignore the

Do they think I'm pretty
Do they wanna take me home
It's just a preference
What a pity
Will I always be alone?

No! 'Cause I'm so
Brave
Loving every inch is
Oh so brave

I'll always work a little harder
While you play the martyr
So come up with something smarter to say
Than I'm so

Brave
I already know
I'm brave
I know
I'm brave
