"My name is I-N-D-I-A, that's me

Let me tell you 'bout my family history

My mom is white and my dad is brown

They are the best and they won't let me down

Don't mater where you are or where you're from

We are all God's children and we like to have fun

I matter, because my family loves me

I matter, because I like to dance and sing

I matter, because I get down like that

I matter, because I'm a cool wildcat."
