“The Definition Of Me”

 “The Definition Of Me”

Mandisa


Everybody’s got an opinion

Of what they want me  to be

Everybody’s got a condition

That I may never met

 

So tired of looking in the mirror

It always says the same thing

I want to be about something different

Something more than the mirror can 

See

 

Like joy, peace

Alive in me

When it comes to my identity

 

I want the love

I want the light

I want the beauty

On the inside

I want the one that you can’t see

To be the definition of me

More than the face

More than the girl

More than the voice

More than the world

I want the truth that I believe

To be the definition of me

 

Pretty is cool for a minute

But it always fades away

Trends are hot for a second

They’ll be gone the very next day

 

So before you get lost in the moment

Let’s get one thing clear

Only love will last forever

That’s the reason that we’re here

 

It’s up to you

‘cause everybody’s looking

Who do you want them to see

 

I want the love

I want the light

I want the beauty

On the inside

I want the one that you can’t see

To be the definition of me

More than the face

More than the girl

More than the voice

More than the world

I want the truth that I believe

To be the definition of me

 

They say I’m cute with the boots

And the trendy attire

You kinda reminiscent 

Of a younger Mariah

But do they see beyond what I got,

What I rock

They’s be shooked if they knew it was

My soul that was hot

Hot boys don’t affect my own self

Respect(not)

And nither do the magazines and

Vanity tests

Yo disa make a list

Who’s fly ans what’s next

Start it off with love, joy, peace

And end it with blessed 

Muah!

 

I want the love

I want the light

I want the beauty

On the inside

I want the one that you can’t see

To be the definition of me

More than the face

More than the girl

More than the voice

More than the world

I want the truth that I believe

To be the definition of me

Bible Verses

For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.   1  You have searched me,  Lord ,      and you know me.   2  You know when I sit and when I rise;      you perceive my thoughts from afar.   3  You discern my going out and my lying down;      you are familiar with all my ways.   4  Before a word is on my tongue      you,  Lord , know it completely.   5  You hem me in behind and before,      and you lay your hand upon me.   6  Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,      too lofty for me to attain.   7  Where can I go from your Spirit?      Where can I flee from your presence?   8  If I go up to the heavens, you are there;      if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.   9  If I rise on the ...
