Don’t look in the mirror
It lies to your face.
Don’t you cry or shiver
You’re beautiful with grace.
Don’t listen to their taunts
They are no one to judge
Don’t agree to their wants
Let them keep a grudge.
You think you don’t deserve it
But that is where you’re wrong
Beauty lies within, every bit
Be confident, stay strong.
The ones who put you down today
Will suffer tomorrow
You shouldn't care about their say
**** those voices with an arrow.
If they love you, it’s just you
So don’t pretend to be someone
It doesn't matter what you do
Stay by yourself, don’t you run.
This mirror is *****
It will show flaws even if you have none
But you know you’re pretty
So smile brighter than the sun.
