More Than a Filter

Location

The way that others see me 
Is not the way I should be 
I am not a black and white filter 
I am not an old vintage filter 
  He says
 "oh that's not the way I built her" 
I smile from the West to the East
    "Ew look at that ugly beast"
Words slandered everywhere 
behind the screen like 
they just don't care 
but words can't hurt me 
They're just bugging little flees
You've got to stand up tall 
Take a picture in the stalls
Be proud of your outer beauty 
Stunt what you got 
And just be groovy
Take that filter off 
Don't be at the trough
Stand at the tallest peak
With your "eyebrows on fleek"
You are not a filter 
That's not the way He built her
Show them what you're really worth 
A beautiful girl, in this spiritual Earth
Your real natural looks 
explored like an open book 
You are not a filter
