Eyes of the Beholder
BEAUTY thou only skin deep can bring out the ugly in you
Don’t lie about who you are and the foul things that you do.
Face beat with make up to cover your insecurity
While all along not knowing it’s your attitude that makes you ugly
Under the lace front wigs, weave and make up you are still you
Wanting to be a grown woman but still living with your mom, what are you still age 2?
Butt pads and padded bras misrepresenting someone that you’re not
Lying and misleading men making them think you got things that you ain’t really got
Who wants a relationship built on lies that just makes no sense?
For when that relationship goes bad it’s your partner you will resent.
How you get them is how you lose them didn’t your momma tell you so
For this is one of first thing that I learned a long time ago
Grow Up be a real women, hold your head high and arch your shoulders
Cause beauty my friend is only in the eyes of the beholder.
