[00:08.05] Work your thing out, out, out
[00:10.60] Work your thing out, out, out
[00:13.36] Work your thing out, out, out
[00:14.80] There's so many of you girls, I hear you been runnin'*
[00:17.49] From the beautiful queen that you can be becomin'
[00:20.06] You can look in my palm and see the storm comin'
[00:22.68] Read the book of my life and see I've overcome it
[00:25.17] Just because the length of your hair ain't long
[00:27.82] And they often criticize you for your skin tone
[00:30.33] Go on and hold your head high, 'cause you a pretty woman
[00:32.97] Get your runway stride honed and keep it goin'

[00:43.86] That's why I be myself and I grew to love it
[00:46.98] Let 'em get mad
