Flawed and Fabulous


Messed Up Weave, Food in my teeth

I woke up like this

Sweatpants and a tee

Only person I got to impress is me

Fabulous

 

I work hard for the future

Future which is so bright

Parents try to keep me down 

but no matter how they think they might

I am flawed but fabulous

 

Society tries to say you won't succeed

Colleges trying to pick their most wanted breed

Don't care about them all 'cause I am me

 

None of us are flawless can't you see

The only flaw is denying that I am me.
