Pretty girl,
with your smile and porcelain skin
you got guys shaking in their awkward grins
as you flip your hair
the sudden onset of the ethereal air
as if an angel
has descended from heaven
Pretty girl,
my friends like you
oh I forgot
everybody do likes you.
sometimes they do their best
just to see the glimpse of you
or do things just to hear a hi from you
Pretty girl,
I always envy you
for when the one I love
truly loves you too
for when people
are always proud of you
even in times there isn't much you do
Pretty girl,
can you tell me
how to be like you?
at least,
people believe in you
that you can be the best
even in your worst times too
Pretty girl,
it must've been so hard for you
people expecting a lot
that you'll always do the things
embedded for you
Pretty girl,
your eyes are puffy
it seems like you cried yourself to sleep
but you still look good
with that smile you wore
many people are fooled
Pretty girl,
I changed my mind
I don't want to be like you
because you are too good to be true
I don't want to be an object they can breakthrough
Pretty girl,
I saw you the other day
they keep on pushing you to join
I know it's not your thing
I saw the shed of tear
when you said no
to your mother dear
Pretty girl,
why are you so untrue?
why can't you show them
that you are hurting too?
Pretty girl,
stop cutting your wings
just to walk in places
you've never wanted to be in
you can fly up as high as you want
you can be whatever
or whoever you wanted to be
Pretty girl,
you got choices written in your hands
passion in your blood
and dedication in your heart
it's time to make use of them
Pretty girl,
it's funny how I wish to be like you
and I realized
sometimes pretty is too scary
they will mistake you for being the best
sometimes being simple
is more than enough
Pretty girl,
you don't need a prince charming to rescue you
you need courage
to stand up for yourself
to fight against the odds
to chase for your own happiness
Pretty girl,
do not be afraid
of asserting the truth
you don't need to prove
yourself to anyone
do not be afraid
not to be called pretty anymore
Pretty girl,
there is so much more
they can call you
other than pretty
after this,
they may call you different names
like liar,
fake,
disgusting,
failure,
disappointment.
Pretty girl,
for when you hear these words
always remember,
you are not the definition of your mistake
you are not the person
they called names for
because you deceived them
because you never did.
you just broke the impression
their narrow minds enclosed in you
Pretty girl,
do not be afraid of showing who you are
or be scared and hurt
not to be called pretty anymore
because
Pretty girl,
you are not just pretty
you are beautiful
not because of your smile
or porcelain skin
not because of the onset of ethereal air
when you flip you hair
but because deep down
in your heart
you are.
