Insecurities Part 2

Insecurities part 2

Why is my hair so brown?
I can’t help but frown
I wanna dye my hair
I can’t compare 
To those other girls
Their like beautiful pearls
And i’m stuck wondering
Do I even belong?
I hate my nose
I think it shows 
That i'm not comfortable
Looking the way I do
I wanna change it all
Then I wouldn’t feel so small
I’d finally be brave enough to
Be who i wanna be and do
What i wanna do without
Any of my doubt
I can walk up to all those guys
And stare them in there eyes
And tell themI think their cute
So im in pursuit
To find myself 
The self that makes me happy
