For the longest time I aspired to be that picture perfect image Of the girls with hip bones and thigh gaps From the covers of the magazines I read when I was a kid Because I was told that is “normal” That is what girls are supposed to look like But now i've come to the realisation that I've spent so much time trying to look like what was told to me as normal That ive become oblivious to my goal of standing out Why should I spend so much time trying to conform When I could create myself in to the person I truly want to be

I will no longer conform
For the longest time I aspired to be that picture perfect image Of the girls with hip bones and thigh gaps From the covers of the magazines I read when I was a kid Because I was told that is “normal” That is what girls are supposed to look like But now i've come to the realisation that I've spent so much time trying to look like what was told to me as normal That ive become oblivious to my goal of standing out Why should I spend so much time trying to conform When I could create myself in to the person I truly want to be
