Tattoo Lyrics

From way back in timeA time more civilizedNations decorate the skinTo express what's withinAs a part of their cultureLike wisdom in a bookIt wasn't just a fashionIt was art made with passionToday still people sayTattoos are for scumBut why be so affraid?For so much beauty madeMy skin is my canvasMy body, here it isIt's an open field for joySee this needle, it's my toyIt's my body, it's my life, it's my own choiceTattoos as expression, it's just a different voiceIt's my body, it's my life, it's part of meTattoos as expression, which means I'm freeThe ink which makes a tattooDoesn't infect common senseIt's a dignified creationWhy call that mutilation?My skin is just a coverThe real me, it's insideSo if you wanna judge meLook beyond and you'll seeIt's my body, it's my life, it's my own choiceTattoos as expression, it's just a different voiceIt's my body, it's my life, it's part of meTattoos as expression, which means I'm freeFrom way back in time, till the day of todayDecoration of skin, the voice from withinIt's my body, it's my life, it's my own choiceTattoos as expression, it's just a different voiceIt's my body, it's my life, it's part of meTattoos as expression, which means I'm freeI am free!
