My worth is not found in the words of a critic
Or the praise of a stranger, it's not a statistic
My worth is not a trophy to be won
Or a prize to be earned, it's not a game that's been done
I am worthy, simply because I exist
I am worthy, of a life filled with bliss
I am worthy, of love and compassion
I am worthy, of my own self-expression
My worth is not a measure of my productivity
Or my accomplishments, or the things that I own
My worth is not a function of my popularity
Or my success, or the people that I know
I am worthy, of love and affection
I am worthy, of a deep connection
I am worthy, of respect and admiration
I am worthy, of my own recognition
I will embrace my worth, with pride and grace
I will not let anyone else take its place
I am worthy, and that's all that matters
I am worthy, and that's the truth that I'll embrace.
