[Mary Lambert - Body Love Pt. 2 lyrics]
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
My body is home my body is home
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
So try this take your hands over your
Bumpy lovebody naked
And remember the first time
You touched someone
With the sole purpose of learning all of them
Touched them because the light
Was pretty on them
And the dust in the sunlight danced
The way your heart did
Touch yourself with a purpose
Your body is the most beautiful royal
Fathers and uncles are not
Claiming your knife anymore
Are not your razor, no
Put the sharpness back
Lay your hands flat and feel
The surface of scarred skin
I once touched a tree with charred limbs
The stump was still breathing
But the tops were just ashy remains
I wonder what it's like to
Come back from that
Because sometimes I feel a forest
Fire erupting from my wrists
And the smoke signals sent out
Are the most beautiful things i've ever seen
Love your body the way your
Mother loved your baby feet
And brother, arm-wrapping shoulders
And remember this is important
You are worth more than who you fuck
You are worth more than a waistline
You are worth more than beer
Bottles displayed like drunken artifacts
You are worth more than any naked
Body could proclaim in the shadows
More than a man's whim
Or your father's mistake
You are no less valuable as a size 16
Than a size 4
You are no less valuable as a 32A than a 36C
Your sexiness is defined by concentric
Circles within your wood it is wisdom
You are a goddamn tree stump
With leaves sprouting out reborn
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
My body is home my body is home
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
So try this take your hands over your
Bumpy lovebody naked
And remember the first time
You touched someone
With the sole purpose of learning all of them
Touched them because the light
Was pretty on them
And the dust in the sunlight danced
The way your heart did
Touch yourself with a purpose
Your body is the most beautiful royal
Fathers and uncles are not
Claiming your knife anymore
Are not your razor, no
Put the sharpness back
Lay your hands flat and feel
The surface of scarred skin
I once touched a tree with charred limbs
The stump was still breathing
But the tops were just ashy remains
I wonder what it's like to
Come back from that
Because sometimes I feel a forest
Fire erupting from my wrists
And the smoke signals sent out
Are the most beautiful things i've ever seen
Love your body the way your
Mother loved your baby feet
And brother, arm-wrapping shoulders
And remember this is important
You are worth more than who you fuck
You are worth more than a waistline
You are worth more than beer
Bottles displayed like drunken artifacts
You are worth more than any naked
Body could proclaim in the shadows
More than a man's whim
Or your father's mistake
You are no less valuable as a size 16
Than a size 4
You are no less valuable as a 32A than a 36C
Your sexiness is defined by concentric
Circles within your wood it is wisdom
You are a goddamn tree stump
With leaves sprouting out reborn
