A diamond with a flaw
Shines more than them all
A crack in the wall
Let's the light in
A heart that is bruised
Is tender from the wound
But I know what love can do
If you let it heal
All the possibilities
When you see it differently
BROKEN IS BEAUTIFUL
THOUGH IT MAY NOT SEEM
BROKEN IS BEAUTIFUL
TAKE IT FROM ME
THAT BROKEN IS BEAUTIFUL
Dirty city streets
Trees without their leaves
There hiding underneath
Is love and beauty
It feels like you've lost your way
Running from your mistakes
Well that's just the place
Where grace will find you
I've been where you are
I've fallen apart
I've had my heart torn to pieces
I've laid down and cried
I've wanted to hide
Wooo
But then I found out!
I used to walk around with my head down
Trying real hard to shut out the sound
Your not black enough
Your not white enough
Your not bold enough
Your not cold enough
It took awhile to shut out the voices
But baby gurl you know its all about your choices
So if you ever been down PUT YOUR HANDS UP
Pushed Around PUT YOUR HANDS UP
Misunderstood PUT YOUR HANDS UP
Called no good PUT YOUR HANDS UP
Overlooked PUT YOUR HANDS UP
Now If your feelin me lift your voice up
