Happiness is Flawless
Location
Even though I'm freckled and thick
Even though I'm blind and poor
Even though I'm short and white
Your words don't hurt me anymore
I've come to learn what it's all about
The true meaning of this life
And although I may be far from the answer
I feel as though I'm right.
We're not here to pick on him
Nor to make her cry
But when will it stop, I ask myself
How many people have to die?
Let's be nice, share a smile
shake a hand and laugh
For this I love about myself
And is an ability that I have
I'd spend all day, no matter the person
making their frowns turn into smiles
And I've come to learn that the reaction I get
Makes it all worth while
So when you ask what makes me flawless
I'll have to stop and think
But then I'll say that it's my humor
That keeps me and others off the brink
To me, flawless isn't about make up or hair
Not boys or money or gold
It's the smiles you make and the memories
You get to look back on when you're old
I am flawless to myself
And I hope you see it too
For not in looks or riches you notice
But in my smile you do
