We dress to impress
Walking through life
Pleasing eyes,
causing sighs
but the pleading doesn’t stop
only brings out more lies
trying to make it to the top
only to realize
that it dries
everything your heart holds dear
and you see that you’re motivated by fear
and rejection,
Propaganda shoved in your ears
telling you that your worth relies
on your pride and lack of compassion
well, that’s not true
so Let’s shatter that, like a mirror
the constant distraction.
and then we’ll need to
Keep our eyes on the skies
because that’s the only truth
on which our worth relies.
