Reinvention

 “They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder,
But what happens when the eyes of the beholder become tainted and blind?”

You’ve had it rough taken all you can take/
Never known enough to be enough could never take a break/
And I can see it in your eyes you’re bleeding
And broken getting tired of even existing/
But girl I’m insisting that you keep on believing/
Because even if you don’t see it/
I can tell that everything about you is Heaven sent/
Yeah you might be a little bent
But I swear that’s what makes you so magnificent/
And in the end all this torment is only meant to allow
Your true colors to shine brighter/
I know by your bruises and scars that you’re a fighter
So why you not runnin’ inta tha fire/?
You’re feeling like a failure but girl take a look in the mirror/
I need cha to take your make-up off and just see yourself bare/
Because when you apply it I swear you’re only hiding your beauty/
And it’s such a damn shame that these critics got it wrong/
But that’s probably only because you weren’t nominated
So fuck JLo you’re the sexist girl in the world/
Cuz she needs make-up artists and stylists to provide it/
But without any of them you still own the podium/

PRECHORUS
Yeah girl you’re beautiful, oh so beautiful/
So full of fight you can dance through the night
So don’t cha worry/
Honey just call me baby/ cuz I need you to see
You’re so beautiful/ shawty why can’t you see it/?

CHORUS
So I’m begging for your cuz it’s time for your reinvention/
Yeah babe it’s time you set your rebel free
And let yourself breathe/
Used to have fight and fire in your eyes
But now it looks like you’re dead inside/
So this is the reinvention of that wild hearted rebel soul/
That stole my heart and soul and demanded all my attention/
Yeah this is the rebel soul set free reinvention/

You’re a rebel soul reinvention and a wild heart reincarnation/
But girl I wish you would just open your eyes
And see how beautiful your reflection is to me/
But all you see is distortion, blind to the natural charm of your complexation/
You’re fronting when you paint yourself full of make up
But girl what tha fuck you tryna cover up/?
I mean yeah you be looking all pretty, but it’s all glamorized fantasy/
Girl you need to bring it back to reality and tell me/
What happened to the girl I used to know that went against this society/
And refused to be another faceless commodity/?
That said “fuck conformity that shit never flew with me/
Because I choose to celebrate my individuality/?”
Shawty sincerely, help me solve this mystery/
Cuz honestly, it’s starting to tear me apart/
Knowing that you no longer let your wild heart burn freely/
And your rebel soul comes around even more rarely/
And honey quite frankly its fucking scary so won’t cha listen when I say

PRECHORUS
Yeah girl you’re beautiful, oh so beautiful/
So full of fight you can dance through the night
So don’t cha worry/
Honey just call me baby/ cuz I need you to see
You’re so beautiful/ shawty why can’t you see it/?

CHORUS
So I’m begging for your cuz it’s time for your reinvention/
Yeah babe it’s time you set your rebel free
And let yourself breathe/
Used to have fight and fire in your eyes
But now it looks like you’re dead inside/
So this is the reinvention of that wild hearted rebel soul/
That stole my heart and soul and demanded all my attention/
Yeah this is the rebel soul set free reinvention/

“They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder,
But what happens when the eyes of the beholder
Become tainted and blind?
It is up to those whom the beholder holds most dear
To clear their vision and make them see the truth
Beyond any and all distortion!”
