Recognition of Distortion
Written By Glenn McCrary & Riyah Walton Magazines are screaming distorted perfection as we begin to kill ourselves slowly dying just to be who we're not Masking all of our fragile insecurities just to look like the celebrities killing our bodies to try and look hot. Not realizing that really we're allowing our brains to rot by destroying all that is left of us rather than focusing on what we've got The images we chase are not what beauty's about Who we truly are is what matters Forcing ourselves to be anyone other than ourselves leaves our true images shattered. It's time to leave the shattering to the mirrors and leave the waterworks to the taps Wipe away the falseness and brighten it with happiness Until eventually we are back on track. The distortion will eventually be forgotten beauty will soon be portrayed as to what lays in the heart And when the chain is broken, and our voices are spoken Beauty can be recognized without burying us alive.
