This is my problem
I look in the mirror and cry a lot
I look in the mirror and find my flaws
Forming a plan in my head
To get rid of the flaws and the tears
But that’s just suicidal behavior
And that’s no good for a young girl like me

That’s why I hate magazines, models and movies
That’s why I hate going to the pool during my summer break
That’s why I hate wearing shorts, and skirts
Don’t you see my dilemma
I think they call these symptoms insecurities
Ha, to think that they know
But they don’t freaking change a thing in our society

I know I’m not the only one
Who breaks every mirror in their house
Who spends all their money on long loose t-shirts and wears sweatpants during summer time
Who think there not anything
Because they see all the fake things around them  

This is my problem
Being insecure about my body
Hating the girls whose got skinny legs
And hating myself for not having them either
And this is bad, cause God made every human being
But he didn’t make society to be a seller of perfection
Now did he?

So instead of focusing on changing ourselves
Let’s focus to change
The society that believes in perfection
That believes in cosmetics
That believes that you as a woman must be perfect
To succeed
But that’s just a whole lot of *******
So now lets go change some things
