    The world looks at me, and calls me fat<br />
    I look at me, and see a nauseating mass of flesh.<br />
    <br />
    The world looks at me, and calls me stupid.<br />
    I look at me, and see someone who will equate to nothing.<br />
    <br />
    The world looks at me, and calls me a failure.<br />
    I look at me, and find no words that can equate to my disgust.<br />
    <br />
    The world looks at me,<br />
    and it calls me fat.<br />
    It calls me ugly.<br />
    It calls me stupid.<br />
    It calls me a failure.<br />
    <br />
    I sit there.<br />
    All alone in my corner.<br />
    Listening to their lies.<br />
    Fat. Ugly. Stupid. Failure.<br />
    Fat. Ugly. Stupid. Failure.<br />
    <br />
    Then I hear something<br />
    Something strong.<br />
    Something comforting.<br />
    I can’t ignore his warmth.<br />
    He’s calling my name.<br />
    <br />
    He's calling me beautiful?<br />
    He's calling me intelligent?<br />
    That I am worthy of love?<br />
    That I'm worth more than gold?<br />
    <br />
    I sit there.<br />
    Alone in my corner.<br />
    Listening to their lies.<br />
    Fat. Ugly. Stupid. Failure.<br />
    Fat. Ugly. Stupid. Failure.<br />
    <br />
    He's calling me beautiful.<br />
    He's calling me intelligent.<br />
    That I am worthy of love.<br />
    That I am worth more than gold.<br />
    <br />
    I'm listening to him.<br />
    I'm accepting his love.<br />
    I'm trusting in him.<br />
    <br />
    I don't need the world.<br />
    I don't need it's lies.<br />
    I need him, and him alone.<br />
    <br />
    The world looks at me, and calls my name.<br />
    Fat. Ugly. Stupid. Failure.<br />
    Fat. Ugly. Stupid. Failure.<br />
    <br />
    He looks at the world.<br />
    Strong, beautiful, and loving,<br />
    He rebukes them.<br />
    <br />
    He tells them that I am his daughter.<br />
    I am beautiful.<br />
    I am intelligent.<br />
    I am worthy of love.<br />
    And I am worth more than gold. <br />
