I look awkward when I walk and then
Sound awkward when I talk and then
When I smile I look Chinese
And no I don't have no white teeth
And I refuse to straighten them
I don't wanna look the same as them
My differences I'm embraced in them
I'm gonna turn heads and make them spin and go
I look perfect in perfection
I see your curses as blessings
But I hate how you fight for acceptance
And the way you cover up for protection
We all got insecurities
You're as beautiful as you choose to be
And you wanna be loved by someone else
You gotta love their hate, but love yourself
I've spend life being someone else
But tonight for once I feel like myself
So tell them
Your words don't hurt
No, no, they don't work
Tell them your words don't hurt
No, no they don't work
I can only see what you wanna be
You can be the change moving forward
If you wanna bring positivity
We can be the change moving forward
Crying inside
You're not yourself
But you might see these things for what they are
I look closed today
Old and grey
This makeup does nothing but show my age
Like a broken record there is no escape
It won't go away
It's so over played
And you hate every single photo I take
I don't like getting close ups of my face
And that angle makes me look overweight
It holds the weight I'll take it straight
Take the flash off so it won't show my face
Put the filter on and post the weight
If you're insicure make no debate
No it's so insane how I see someone so insane
With a smile I get blown away
I know it sounds cheesy and so cleche
But you're beautiful make no mistake
I've spend my life being someone else
But tonight for once I feel like myself
So tell them your words don't hurt
No they don't work
Tell them your words don't hurt
No no they don't work
I can only see what you wanna be
You can be the change moving forward
If you wanna bring positivity
We can be the change moving forward
Crying inside, you're not yourself
But you might see these things for what they are
You are you and nobody else
To be beautiful is to be yourself
I can only see what you wanna be
You can be the change moving forward
If you wanna bring positivity
We can be the change moving forward
Crying inside your not yourself
But you might see these things for what they are
