Beautiful Inside

We try so hard

Just don't forget who you are

And what's inside your heart

Listen it can guide you

I know so far

The world has made you hide

But you should know

You're beautiful

You're beautiful inside

Growing up for these women is like a different scene

Everything that you see ain't always what it seems

Images and appearances in the magazines

Photoshopped

And they and so they rob you of self esteem

It's a fantasy

That you wanna live

So you don't eat

U Starving to the ribs

Get that Plastic surgery

Touchup to the lips

Or you get that tummy tucked

But still it's not enough

The obsession with being thin

And being pretty cause witty is never in

Always based on appearance

Only way to get clearance to clubs

Get respect if you appear with a thug

Always do what's expected is the underlying message

Society's objective

Is to keep us all oppressed with

A lowered self image

So we do self damage

Business as usual

For them

But just remember that you're beautiful

We try so hard

Just don't forget who you are

And what's inside your heart

Listen it can guide you

I know so far

The world has made you hide

But you should know

You're beautiful

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

Growing up in these streets as a man is difficult

Which way to go

Sometimes the path is already chose

To be exposed to money making and taking oaths

Being a gang means gotta maintain

The younger generation is doing

The same thing that the older class is teaching

They just hopping in the flames

The cross fire between the cause and effect

The system that is broken and the people it affects

But still i'm wondering what's gonna come next

The violence so apparent

Putting pressure on the parents

To teach another message

The one of self love

Cuz only if you have it can you share it with your club

Forgotten memories of fellowship and honor

Replaced with banging and selling that marijuana on the streets

Running and ducking the police

While they steady pursuing you

Try to remember that you beautiful

We try so hard

Just don't forget who you are

And what's inside your heart

Listen it can guide you

I know so far

The world has made you hide

But you should know

You're beautiful

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

Never let them tell you what you can't do

Never let them tell you what you won't do

When they hating tell them thank you

Somebody else is gonna want you

Never let them tell you what you can't do

Never let them tell you what you won't do

When they hating tell them thank you

Somebody else is gonna want you

Somebody else is gonna want you

We try so hard

Just don't forget who you are

And what's inside your heart

Listen it can guide you

I know so far

The world has made you hide

But you should know

You're beautiful

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside

You're beautiful inside ^[1]
