about

I met the devil, I looked into his mouth, I was hungry and anxious in the south
I have been close to heaven, I have been deep in hell
I fought my way out and now I’ve got a story to tell
Oh, I’ll be alright, I’ll be all good, I’ll be all there
One day, I know, I will go
I’ll be fine
I am not nothing, at all
I’m beautiful, I’m beautiful, I’m beautiful

She was an artist, that is what she said
I talked about her art and we got in the bed
But then, in the morning, I wanted to stay
She wanted me to leave and so I went away
Oh, and I rode through the hills and through the pines
Down to the water where the good people shine
I am not nothing, at all
I’m beautiful, I’m beautiful, I’m beautiful

I’m one in a zillion, I still know the score
But I can’t even count right anymore
I lost every battle for more than a year
When winter came I almost lost the war
I almost didn’t make it, but I did
And I went where I knew I’d be well
I wrestled with God and I fought the God of hell
I won and I’m not looking back
I’m beautiful, I’m beautiful, I’m beautiful

Once in awhile now, I still get upset
There are moments I regret
I always will regret them and I know
I won’t forget ‘em
But I know I must move on
And I know there’s a darkness after dawn
And there’s light after the darkness
Oh, I’ll be alright, I’ll be all good, I’ll be all there
One day, I know, I will go
I’ll be fine
I am not nothing, at all
I’m beautiful, I’m beautiful, I’m beautiful

I know how to get out and I know how to get in
And I know the different between greed and sin
Some men just justice
Some men just want rain
I think the secret is they’re both the same
