Lyrics Mandisa – The Definition Of Me

Everbody’s got an opinion
Of what they want me to be.
Everybody’s got a condition
That I may never meet.

So tired of lookin in the mirror
It always says the same thing
I wanna be about somethin different
Somethin 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 life.
I want the beauty only 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
Then they’re gone the very next day.

So before you get lost in the moment
Let’s get one thing clear.
That love will last forever.
It’s the reason that we’re here.

It’s up to you.
Cause everybody’s lookin.
How do you want them to see? (yea)

I want the love.
I want the life.
I want the beauty only 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.

Said I’m cute with the boots
And the trendy attire.
Said they’re kinda remanicin
Bout a younter Maraya.
But do they see beyond what I got
What I rock.
They’d be shocked if they knew
It was my soul that was hot.
Boys won’t effect my own self respect.
And neither do the magazines at Vanity Tech.
Yo Disa make a list of what’s fly
And what’s next.
Start it off with Joy, Peace,
And end it with Blessed.

I want the love.
I want the life.
I want the beauty only 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.

I want you to be my definition.
De-de-definition.
Want you to be my definition.
Definition of me.
I want you to be my definition.
De-de-definition.
Want you to be my definition.
Definition of me.
