A girl like me can light up any party
And hold a crowd in her hand
A girl like me can turn heads on the runway
And travel off to distant lands
A girl like me knows how to make her money
She's just as smart as she is cute
She's strong and doesn't take it from nobody
A girl like me knows how to live her truth
A girl like me can dream
But sometimes that's all that she can do
To belong
To be loved
In the arms of someone
That's all I wanna be
I just need
To be heard
To be seen
Do you know what I mean
Would it hurt to try and see
If you could love a girl, love a girl like me
A girl like me isn't always seen as equal
And sometimes not one at all
A girl like me can't give a man a baby
And when trouble comes she's first to take the fall
And girls like me are scared and angry
But we always find a way to smile
To belong
To be loved
In the arms of someone
That's all I wanna be
I just need
To be heard
To be seen
Do you know what I mean
Would it hurt to try and see
If you could love a girl, love a girl like me
The girl who's fighting for her life
The girl who can't go home at night
The girl who strives for good but ends up so misunderstood
The girl who needs a love to call her own
To belong
To be loved
In the arms of someone
That's all I wanna be
I just need
To be heard
To be seen
Do you know what I mean
Would it hurt to try and see
If you could love a girl, love a girl like me
