[Refrão]When a girl can't be herself no moreI just wanna cry, I just wanna cry for the worldWhen a girl can't be herself no moreI just wanna cry, I just wanna cry for the world (Repeat)[Verse 1]In the morning from the minute that I wake upWhat 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-esteemWhose job is it to straighten out my curves?I'm so tired of that image, that's my wordWhat 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 herSing, sing, sing, why, oh, oh, oh, why, oh?[Chorus][Verse 2]Uh, uh, I'm so secure with insecuritiesWhy 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 appearancesWe please to be appeasedThe truest pleasure is the fact that we can breatheThink it into existence, do it, then achieveA fairy tale reality, beauty was with a beastUh, uh, I'm the image of your reflectionEh, eh, you're the image of my reflectionSing, sing, sing, why, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh why, oh?[Chorus]
