lyrics

I’ve been making peace with myself and who I was before
I arrived to the state that I’m in
Bidding good riddance to the scars concealed by the costumes I wore
Which reached out for more wounds to befriend
And as I linger in the present, I’m left tracing the past
The cripples in the composition incomplete
But if I’m strong enough to stand, I will stand up to say
That the old tired cycle ends with me

Love wins, love will always win
I’ll say it again and again, love will always win
Love wins, love will always win
I’ll say it again and again, love will always win

Empowered women empower women
Who improve this world, this world we live in
Empowered women empower women
Who improve this world, this world we live in
Empowered women empower women
Who improve this world, this world we live in
Empowered women empower women
Who improve this world, this world we live in

And I’m tired of this hypersexualized society
Lusting after our vulnerable and justifying its greed
We’re neither ignorant, nor stupid, nor up for sale
So why do we tolerate living in this hell?
Oh we know we all deserve better, we deserve to be free
So please just take a moment to rinse and repeat
Singin'
My body is a temple and my body is for me
My body is a temple and my body is for me
My body is a temple and my body is for me
My body is a temple and my body is for me
My body is a temple and my body is for me
My body is a temple and my body is for me
My body is a temple and my body is for me
My body is a temple and my body is for me

Love wins, love will always win
I’ll say it again and again, love will always win
Love wins, love will always win
I’ll say it again and again, love will always win
Love wins, love will always win
I’ll say it again and again, love will always win
Love wins, love will always win
I’ll say it again and again, love will always win

And life is only beginning
And life is only beginning
And life is only beginning
And life is only beginning
And life is only beginning
And life is only beginning
And life is only beginning
And life is only beginning
