More Than Just My Skin
"Hey, baby, looking hot tonight!"
"Don't you want some of this, good lookin?"
"Stupid bitch! Can't take a fucking compliment!"
If it isn't some one on the street making my skin crawl
It's the friends that tell me I should eat
It's the girls that instead of sticking up for one another, they call each other whores and bitches.
Meat, is for men. Only dogs like bones.
We try tirelessly to make ourselves more desirable
Buy this cream, and try that powder
And even if it helps me feel more powerful
I still feel so empty?

Lose 10 pounds in just 5 days
Sell your soul and become a slave
"You're skirts too short, you whore."
"Why won't you sleep with me you prude?"
And no matter what I do
They judge me on my skin
Whether I show too much or not enough
Whether it's natural or concealed
If I'm fat, if I'm thin, If I'm different
Isn't it time we start taking a look at what's within?
Before judging others, aren't I more than just my skin?
