Self Respect
Picture perfect
I see you on the cover of a magazine
Images of beauty
It’s the way we should be
Chorus
Have self-respect
Don’t look down upon yourself
You’re worth more than you know
You are loved and accepted
You’re a diamond in his eyes
You are special you’re so precious
Made in his image you are one of his own
Feeling so worthless
I’m the picture of imperfection
Look at me; I’ve got nothing to offer
Still I try, striving towards perfection
Chorus
Perfection, it’s the way I should be
Emulation, but it but it doesn’t quite work
Beauty queen, is that what I have to be?
Chorus
Create an image; make myself something I am not
Attention, is all that I want
Attraction, I need to feel loved
Chorus
New perspective, I need some self-respect
The truth is, I am worth far more than this
What’s on the inside shines through the veneer
Chorus
