Expectations

Location

Small girl, with far from normal dreams

Everyday I wake up wanting the same thing

see I want to see the world make a change in how we're seen 

cause now-a-days everyone seems to be hidden behind a screen

held to expectations we know we cant achive 

but what we fail to realize is that people are distorted in magazines

we're unseen

for the people we are inside

so instead of boosting confidence

we cause people to feel unworthy and hide

So here I am to tell you

different is good 

so come out from hiding

take off your mask and your hood 

grab my hand and together this message will be delievered

this is real, this is life, this is us unfliltered
