Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn’t straight her body isn’t fake
And she’s always felt overweight
Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are
(Chorus)
There could never be a more beautiful you
Don’t buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you
Little girl twenty-one the things that you’ve already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you’ve got a man but he’s got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead
Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there’s a man whose love is true
And he’ll treat you like the jewel you are
So turn around you’re not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It’s not too late you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear they can all be washed away
By the one who’s strong can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world
He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light He will show you truth
And again you’ll see through the eyes of a little girl
I think we need more songs that encourages people and let people know that there is hope and we don't have to be somebody else because there could never be another person like us individually!
Girls and boys, women and men..most of us are not happy with some part of our appearance and wished that we can have someone else's features. No doubt we need to take care of our body because it is the temple of the Holy Spirit.
If you feel that you are not pretty enough or not handsome enough, listen to this song. There's so much truth in it. "Dontcha" may be nice to listen to, but the message is somehow depressing people that would think they have to look like those girls in PSD. I'm not against PSD (if I don't like a song, I only mean the lyrics), but the message is sending out negative message.
You're beautiful in your special ways!
