new social norm
look at me
Ain't I pretty.
Dont you see the beauty that resides in between my mind?
Girls cant find a guy because they all want one kind.
Boys cant find a girl because all we do is lie.
What if i told you we do?
Because pop culture made us to.
Being a manufactured, doll like product is better than
being a one of a kind human.
Steedy hours to formalate this look,
and we feel amazed
when we get praise for our bait on a hook.
Guys say they want someone who's real.
A queen, a joker , an A level girl who makes their heart melt
but quickly takes away the natural elements.
Then gets mad at the cards that were dealt.
I WILL NEVER DEHUMANIZE MYSELF.
Though times are changing my face will remain the same.
I am not: Slumber, creme, Ludwig, or willow.
I find my natural lighting right under the window.
I know im not a fancy celebrity,
very normal to what average eyes see.
But who says that can't be beauty?
