girl can't be herself
Alicia Keys
When a girl can't be herself no moreI just wanna cry
I just wanna cry for the world
When a girl can't be herself no more
I just wanna cry
I just wanna cry for the world
In the morning from the minute
That I wake up
What if I don't want to put on
All that make up?
Who says I must conceal what I'm made of?
Maybe all this maybelline
Is covering my self-esteem
Whose job is it to straighten out my curves?
I'm so tired of that image, that's my word
What if today I don't feel
Like putting heels on?
Who are you to criticize
When beauty's only in the eyes
Of the beholder, so behold her
Sing, sing, sing, why, oh, oh, oh, why, oh?
When a girl can't be herself no more
I just wanna cry
I just wanna cry for the world
When a girl can't be herself no more
I just wanna cry
I just wanna cry for the world
Uh, uh, I'm so secure with insecurities
Why is being unique such an impurity?
Why are the numbers
On the scale like a god to me?
All of these indifferences
Are based on our appearances
We please to be appeased
The truest pleasure is the fact
That we can breathe
Think it into existence
Do it, then achieve
A fairy tale reality
Beauty was with a beast
Uh, uh, uh, you're the image of my reflection
Ah, ah, ah, I'm the image of my reflection
Sing, sing, sing, why, oh, oh, oh, why, oh?
When a girl can't be herself no more
I just wanna cry
I just wanna cry for the world
When a girl can't be herself no more
I just wanna cry
I just wanna cry for the world
