I Don't Need You To

Samantha Mumba-I Don't Need You To

I don't need you to
Tell me I'm pretty to make me feel beautiful
I don't need you to
Give me your strength to make me feel I'm strong
I got all of the strength that I need here inside my own two hands
All that I want is your love and respect for who I am
What I really need
Comes from deep inside of me

Don't need you to tell me I'm pretty to make me feel beautiful
Don't need you to make me strong
Cause I'm strong on my own
Doesn't come from outside
This beauty I know
Comes from inside my soul
(Don't need you to tell me I'm pretty)

I don't need you to
Believe in me to let me know I'm worth believing in
I don't need you to
Hold me up, I know I can stand tall
I can stand tall
I can stand my own ground
I can stand tall upon my own two feet
Don't need to be part of somebody else to be complete
What I really need comes from deep inside of me
Don't need you to tell me I'm pretty to make me feel beautiful
Don't need you to make me strong
Cause I'm strong on my own
Doesn't come from outside
This beauty I know
Comes from inside my soul

Don't need to come to you for confirmation
Because I've finally come to this revelation
What I really need
I'm gonna find inside of me
Not in somebody else
Respect comes when you respect yourself

Don't need you to tell me I'm pretty to make me feel beautiful
Don't need you to make me strong
Cause I'm strong on my own
Doesn't come from outside
This beauty I know
Comes from inside my soul
Don't need you to tell me I'm pretty to make me feel beautiful
Doesn't come from outside
This beauty I know
Comes from inside my soul

Don't need you to tell me I'm pretty
To know I'm beautiful
