Does it matter

Does it matter that I don’t keep my nails did.

I can cut and trim them myself, I’m still cute.

Does it matter that I sometimes wrap my hair in cloth

I can take it off if I want to, I’m still cute

Does it matter that I don’t wear a weave

I can rock my own hair, I’m still cute

Does it matter that I don’t wear those tight jeans

I can be comfortable in 2 sizes too big, I’m still cute

Does it matter that I don’t wear a size 5/6,

I can still out run you, I’m still cute

Does it matter that I don’t primp for class

I can dress up when I want to, I’m still cute

Does it matter that I don’t own prada or coach

I can carry a wal-mart brand purse, I’m still cute

What really matters about me…

The smile that stays on my face and

How I do what I need when I want for me

Not too mention I have a college degree

And a man at home waiting on me!!
