I'm just like you
We're just a bunch of tools that boys like to use
We twist and turn and bend
Until we're hurt and bruised
But we stick through it all
Cause it's hard to see our beauty and that we are worth it all
We get no respect
We're treated like we're targets
They think they're perfect
But girl they ain't harmless
We try to connect
Deeper than the surface
But he says come over instead
Then make us leave they're so heartless
All these nights I pray
That bad thoughts about yourself will change
And nothing can replace
That you're treasure not a target
Don't deserve a little, but all of it
You're just like me
Trying to find our beauty but we'll never be
As perfect as they want us
When will we be free
From the standards they believe
Giving false hope to something we can never achieve
We get no respect
We're treated like we're targets
They think they're perfect
But girl they ain't harmless
We try to connect
Deeper than the surface
But he says come over instead
Then make us leave they're so heartless
All these nights I pray
That bad thought about yourself will change
And nothing can replace
That you're treasure not a target
Don't deserve a little, but all of it
It's hard to see how much we deserve
And girl I know, it’s a lonely world
But if we learn just how much we deserve
We'll never go back
Cause we are the treasure
We deserve to be treasured
All these nights I pray
That bad thought about yourself will change
And nothing can replace
That you're treasure not a target
Don't deserve a little, but all of it
