new social norm

look at me 

Ain't I pretty.

Dont you see the beauty that resides in between my  mind?

Girls cant find a guy because they all want one kind.

Boys cant find a girl because all we do is lie.

What if i told you we do?

Because pop culture made us to.

Being a manufactured, doll like product is better than

being a one of a kind human.

Steedy hours to formalate this look,

and we feel amazed

when we get praise for our bait on a hook.

Guys say they want someone who's real.

A queen, a joker , an A level girl who makes their heart melt

but quickly takes away the natural elements.

Then gets mad at the cards that were dealt.

I WILL NEVER DEHUMANIZE MYSELF.

Though times are changing my face will remain the same.

I am not: Slumber, creme, Ludwig, or willow.

I find my natural lighting right under the window.

I know im not a fancy celebrity,

very normal to what average eyes see.

But who says that can't be beauty?
