Don't judge a book by its cover
Don't replace me for another
Please accept me for being me
Being on my way is what I hope you see
I remember the times we first met
The secrets I told that now I regret
About me being bullied for my size
For me needing my self-esteem to rise
So if you ever feel self-conscious
Remember worrying is pointless
You're beautiful just the way you are
Chase your dreams and reach for the stars
So, wake up with your head held high
Feel as free as a bird in the sky
Spread your wings, keep the spark in your eye
Stay confident and never shy
So, wake up with your head held high
Feel as free as a bird in the sky
Spread your wings, keep the spark in your eye
Stay confident and never shy
You made me feel so insecure
Made me hate myself more and more
I'd come home and cry on the floor
Felt as if I couldn't take it any more
All the horrible things she used to say
They affected me every single day
You called me up being fat
That's not right, I don't deserve that
So if you ever feel self-conscious
Remember worrying is pointless
You're beautiful just the way you are
Make your dreams happen and reach for the stars
So, wake up with your head held high
Feel as free as a bird in the sky
Spread your wings, keep the spark in your eye
Stay confident and never shy
Wake up with your head held high
Feel as free as a bird in the sky
Spread your wings, keep the spark in your eye
Stay confident and never shy
Wake up with your head held high
Feel as free as a bird in the sky
Spread your wings, keep the spark in your eye
Stay confident and never shy
Wake up with your head held high
Feel as free as a bird in the sky
Spread your wings, keep the spark in your eye
Stay confident and never shy
