what is wrong with image

what happened to healthy girls
plump and good natured
once adored by a world
that turns weight into hatred

why can't we have thigh gaps
why can't we be thin
why must we aspire
to love the skin we're in

everyone has a preference
everybody a taste
but in no shape or form
are your likes a disgrace

keep your bones showing
keep yourself round
keep your chin up
and your eyes off the ground

aspire to health
aspire to knowledge
dont aspire to looks
that should be avoided

these girls in the sun and the star
they're not real
they're changed and endorsed
by photoshop deals

be plumper or smaller
whatever your wealth
but dont let your look
take its toll on your health

if you want to be ripped
sweat more and ***** less
if you want to be rounder
get some weight on your chest

dont comfort eat or starve yourself
or look up to the unrealistic
because having good image instead of good health
does *not make you happy or gifted
