Body Love, Pt. 2 Lyrics - Welcome To The Age Of My Body - Mary Lambert

I know I am because I said am 

I know I am because I said am 

I know I am because I said am 

My body is home 

My body is home 

I know I am because I said am 

I know I am because I said am 

I know I am because I said am

So try this 

Take your hands over your bumpy love body naked 

And remember the first time you touched someone 

With the sole purpose of learning all of them 

Touched them because the light was pretty on them 

And the dust in the sunlight danced the way your heart did 

Touch yourself with a purpose 

Your body is the most beautiful royal 

Fathers and uncles are not claiming your knife anymore 

Are not your razor, no 

Put the sharpness back 

Lay your hands flat and feel the surface of scarred skin 

I once touched a tree with charred limbs 

The stump was still breathing 

But the tops were just ashy remains 

I wonder what it's like to come back from that 

Sometimes I feel a forest fire erupting from my wrists 

And the smoke signals sent out are the most beautiful things 

I've ever seen 

Love your body the way your mother loved your baby feet 

And brother, arm wrapping shoulders, and remember 

This is important 

You are worth more than who you fuck 

You are worth more than a waistline 

You are worth more than any naked body could proclaim 

In the shadows, more than a man's whim 

Or your father's mistake 

You are no less valuable as a size 16, than a size 4 

You are no less valuable as a 32a than a 36c 

Your sexiness is defined by concentric circles within your wood 

Wisdom 

You are a goddamn tree stump with leaves sprouting out 

Reborn
