All me


Filters, selfies, and Social media

What has this world come to

I myslef as an individual

I dont need makeup for a slefie

I dont need my body exposed for a slefie

I dont need a filter to fix my skin color for a slefie

I am who I am

With or with the selfies and posting

Born and raised her in Hawaii

Where culture once was importamt

When respect and traditions were important

I want to be the difference

The one who brings back the real in myself

I am who I am , a Hawaiian girl with goals and dream

Selfies wont make my dreams come true

Its all about being real and remembering where I came from

This island girl has bigger dreams then selfies on social media

I am an individual

I am myself

No filters can show the real me

I am not a selfie 

But I am my self
