To Be Perfect

The pressure to be perfect 
it's so strong and it is so great, 
We all would like to be perfect, 
But there's only one perfect,his name is God! 

You would like to change your body, 
You would like to have a makeover too, 
Everywhere and anywhere on your body and your face, 
People changes their noses, they pull their skins, this way and that too, 

Some people have too many plastic surgeries everywhere, 
They take care of their wrinkles here and there,that we know, 
They're so worried about their physical appearance all the time, too much too, 
But what about your heart, your spirit and your soul,that's what make you whole 

Have you taken care of these, through all the years you lived,have you? 
What about your relationship with God, do you have at all, any too? 
The pressure to be perfect it is so strong,it is so great, 
But we can never be perfect, so relax and work 'more' in the real You!
