Work your thing out.
Work your thing out.
Work your thing out.

Verse 1:
There's so many you girls, I hear you've been running.
From the beautiful queen that you can be becoming.
You can look in my palm and see the storm coming.
Read the book of my life and see I've overcome it.
Just because the length of your hair ain't long and they often criticize you for your skin tone.
Wanna hold your head high cuz you're a pretty woman.
Get your runway stride on and keep it going.
Girl, live your life.

Pre-Chorus:
I just wanna be myself. (Yeah, yeah)
Don't sweat girl, be yourself.
Follow me, follow me, follow me. (Follow me, follow me, follow me)
I be myself. (Girl, be yourself)
That's right, I be myself.
And I grew to love it.
Let them get mad.
They gone hate anyways, don't you get that?
Doesn't matter if you go along wit their plan.
They'll never be happy cuz they're not happy wit themselves.

Chorus:
(Ah, work what you got)
I'm talking bout things that I know.
(Ah, work what you got)
It's ok, show yourself some love.
(Ah, work what you got)
Don't worry bout who saying what.
(It's gonna be fine)
(Work what you got)
Work what you got.

Verse 2:
Feeling great because the light's on me.
Celebrating the things that everyone told me would never happen.
But God has put his hands on me.
And ain't a man alive could ever take it from me.
Working wit what I got.
I gotta keep on.
(Keep on)
Taking care of myself.
I wanna live long.
(Live long)
Ain't never ashamed of what life did to me.
Wasn't afraid to change cuz it was good for me.
I wanna...

Pre-Chorus:
I just wanna be myself. (I just wanna be)
Don't sweat girl, be yourself. (Don't sweat girl)
Follow me, follow me, follow me. (Follow me, follow me)
I be myself. (Girl, be yourself)
That's right, I be myself.
And I grew to love it. (Oh)
Let them get mad.
They gone hate anyways, don't you get that?
Doesn't matter if you go along wit their plan.
They'll never be happy cuz they're not happy wit themselves.

Chorus:
(Ah, work what you got)
I'm talking bout things that I know.
(Ah, work what you got)
It's ok, show yourself some love.
(Ah, work what you got)
Don't worry bout who saying what.
(It's gonna be fine)
(Work what you got)
Work what you got.
