They all taught us to be perfect and beautiful
What they never really taught us was self love, sorry "selfish" as they call it.
They never taught us to be confident about ourselves
Or words like dignity and imperfection
Everyone wanted us to be perfect
When they were the only one looking for faults in us
They all wanted me to be presentable by
applying layers of foundation
Just to hide my real face, which by the way was filled with tears.
Tell me how is it ever going to help us
How will I be confident in myself when I was taught to erase my faults
