lyrics

Verse 1:

There's a young girl in the corner, shying away, not feeling wanted.
What the culture calling beauty, leaves her soul feeling taunted.

And She looking in the mirror, all made up, so she can flaunt it.
But deep down her emotions are still running through the gauntlet.

With a culture full of lies, and how to dress to please the guys
But she knows she's gotta try, so her mind keeps asking why

She starts going through the motions, should she give up without a fight
Peer pressure start to take her, break defenses like dynamite

Now she's dressing for attention, she only wants to be seen
She still searches for her Prince, that she remembers from her dreams

She starts questioning her existence, her life's tearing at the seams
But girl you look inside you be who you're meant to be

Now she looks up to the sky she's wondering why
All her life she's cried she can't even smile
She doesn't even know where to go from here she looks up to the clouds wipes away the tears

Chorus 1:

She only wanted to feel like she was wanted but now

She's still haunted by her past she can't stop it she's

Turning back to the things she's ashamed of

Thinks she's alone, thinks she can't escape them

Verse 2:

A 12 year old kid thought he could do nothing right
when he goes home he cant sleep at night his mom and dad fight

His heart feels as grey as the pavement he walks in
Sometimes he thinks i'm just a failure so why live?

He couldn't make any friends and the friends he had all laughed at him
Couldnt talk to his pops cuz his pops just talked trash at him

He had his little spot where he can crawl in and cry
And imagines a better life where the well don't run dry

His young eyes have seen deep hurt and pain
Because his older brother got shot when he was only 8

He lives this life where there's only hate
Feels all alone trapped lonely and afraid

Now he looks up to the sky he's wondering why
All his life he's cried he can't even smile
He doesn't even know where to go from here he looks up to the clouds and wipes away the tears

Chorus 2:

He only wanted to feel like he was wanted but now

He's still haunted by his past he can't stop it he's

Turning back to the things he's ashamed of

Thinks he's alone, thinks he can't escape them

Bridge:


You are wanted, you are loved, there's a God who loves you,

You can trust

You are wanted, you are loved, don't ever lose faith and give up

You are wanted you are loved, there's a God who loves you,

You can trust

You are wanted, you are loved, don't ever be afraid to look up.

You are beautiful...
