don't tell me things about myself

that i know are lies

don't say that i am not good enough

when i know the truth

don't say that i am ugly

when i can see clearly

don't say that i am worthless

when i hear differently

don't tell me things about myself

that i know are lies

for i am eternally being

renewed for a higher purpose

for i am fearfully and wonderfully

made in God's image

for i am alive and breathing

with a purpose living inside of me
