Trapped

Trapped in a world filled with so much judging

People would rather change their selves than be who they really are

Trapped in a world filled with so much hate

People would rather die than live the life they were given

Trapped in a world where there’s so much talk about how you’re perfect the way you are

Yet … the media shows us every single day how you can’t be perfect unless you have the perfect body

Trapped.

Trapped in a world filled with all these things

The society we live in is a monster

It’ll eat at us slowly if we let it

We drown ourselves in all the negativity

We constantly criticize each other

But reality is that we’re our own biggest critics

Take a moment & step back

Open your eyes & mind

You ARE beautiful the way you are

No matter what the media or society tells you

They try to make us all the same

Is that really a good idea?

Because after all

Every single person on this earth is unique

Our individuality is what makes us different

& Our differences are what makes life amazing
