Iridescence
They
told me I wasn’t good enough
Until
I looked just right
I
had no worth at all
Until
they saw me in the light
They
tell me you are not enough
That
I waste my time with you
But
why should I listen to them
When
they hate even themselves too
They
tell everyone else
Who
their friends are
Who
they should be
How
to find true beauty
They tell themselves
We
are not strong
That
we’re not worth it
Cause
they are not
The
ones I’m trying to please
I’m
trying to get the girl in the mirror
Too
look straight at me
And
they can’t make me
Tell
me I’m not pretty
Or
that no one else
Ever
could be
So
when you see me
I
will smile bright
And
I will show you
Your
iridescence
of
light
