Change is beautiful

Location

Everyone complains about societal views

And the way women in magazines are never more than a size two

But if you think about it

Why don't magazines advertise strength or wit

Or how to tell a man "no"

And that it isn't your fault your boss makes you feel low

Magazines are so dedicated to beauty and how to fit in

They don't realize girls need to hold up their chin

And fight back against the people telling them they aren't pretty enough

Not smart enough

Not good enough

Women are strong

But the media tries to prove that wrong

Put on your lipstick, grow out your nails, cut off your hair

And don't listen to anyone who tells you what to wear

No matter who you are, you are beautiful

And the change you make in society is crucial
