Add a little here, add

Add a little here, add a little there.

Hide this and hide that.

Am I accepted if I hide behind this hat?

Can I show you the real me, or will it be your judgement that kills me.

Am I one of you now?

Oh "Amaro" to you I bow.

"Where are you"? they ask, dont you want to be one of us too?

Why do we live behind our filters?

Why don't we pride ourselves on our natural beauty,instead of hiding it like we're tricksters.

We wouldnt show, even if it was a dare.

So we... add a little here, add a little there.

And pray we no one finds out, where we're hiding this and hiding that.
