Jazmine

I am small and weak, fragile to the bone
Splintered driftwood dried, cotton cloth un-sewn
I have many marks that show up many scars
And show me that I’ve tried, sometimes it’s been too hard
And, ooh, how I wish I could be just like her
Strong-willed and unbreakable just like her
If I could be anyone in this whole wide world
I would be just like Jazmine
Beauty never shown, understanding mind
Speaks her opinions all and almost every time
Got a rule for all and every occasion
Knows how to use her charm in every situation
And, ooh, how I wish I could be just like her
Strong-willed and unbreakable just like her
If I could be anyone in this whole wide world
I would be just like Jazmine
I would be just like Jazmine
I would be
You’d have to know her to understand what I’m saying
But it’s too late for you to meet her, she’s gone away
I swear to you my truth, this is what I’m saying
If I could be anyone
And, ooh, how I wish I could be just like her
Strong-willed and unbreakable, just like her
If I could be anyone in this whole wide world
I would be just like Jazmine
