Beauty is skin deep.
I don't care what they say,
If your features don't align,
In that special certain way,
It doesn't matter if you're smart,
If you're not stunning on the outside no one will ever let you start.
You won't get opportunities,
You'll have to work twice as hard,
Being nice doesn't make you pretty.
And doesn't that make life hard?
i hate the beauty standards
i wish people would just let other people be
we stand w Palestine
