lyrics

Every single day I see the same things: TV screens and magazines trying to put a price on beauty as if it all amounts to body. And my biggest stress presented unto this is feeling so damn powerless. Like all my efforts are in vain, so I’ll just do what I can. I will commit to never treating a woman like fathers do. It’s not inherent; it’s something we've bought. Putting prices on faces, this needs to be stopped. Don’t ever sell yourself short. Well that’s been a problem this whole time: letting the world cloud up my mind. To think perfection can be displayed in a reflection when minds are cast down and thrown out… well I won’t back down. I’ll make a promise right here to never be stifled or broken by fear. Fear of being discounted by men. Mistreated or used, I can’t let it happen. I’ll make a commitment to never treating a woman like fathers do. It’s not inherent; it’s something we've bought. Putting prices on faces, this needs to be stopped. But all this pressure seems to put her through hell ‘cause she’s been conditioned to dig through all the shit on the shelf. And all they ever have to say for themselves is “MAYBE SHE’S BORN WITH IT?” Well maybe… IT’S SOMETHING ELSE.
