Not because my hair is short

Or because I wear baggy clothes

But because I have inner beauty that I hope would show

I don't wear makeup

Not because I don't want the guys

Or because I look like one 

But because I'd hope that you could see me for who I am at least once

I don't wear makeup

Not because I'm too confident

No that's not true at all

I hide behind strength that's as fragile as China dolls

I hurt just like you and I feel just as deeply

I don't wear makeup, nah filters delete me

You should take me for who I am not what was made of me

Take me for what you see not what Mac has done to me

I am all I have 

All I have is what God gave me

A face with plain details 

Why should I change me?

Am I not pretty?

Am I not good enough?

Am I ugly to the naked eye?

Do disgust you with my natural look 

Why don't you look me in the eye!

Tell me, why should I change my outside appearance to get you to want me? 

I have a hard enough time accepting me being lonely

I have to wake up and look at me everyday

And tell myself "Gon girl you, look okay." 

And that's the closet thing to a compliment I will get

Because I don't wear makeup

So I look like shit ! 

Does my presents not strike you like a big ol booty?

See I was told when I walk in a room my presents is moving

But you don't see me that way 

Nah I guess you don't feel me 

Because you're so used to makeup you don't know true beauty

I have conversation, intellect, and motivation 

I'm standing here right now spillin my guts to you and you a total stranger

Get this, I'm realer than the person that's sittin next to you !

And yall swear that yall want somebody real

Nah you want someone that's gon lie to you before you even speak 

But it's just makeup and filters I guess it don't get that deep

So I do wear makeup
