Pretty Hurts
Beyoncé Lyrics

Ms. Third Ward, your first question:
What is your aspiration in life?
Oh, well my aspiration in life would be
To be happy

Mama said, you're a pretty girl
What's in your head it doesn't matter
Brush your hair, fix your teeth
What you wear is all that matters

Just another stage
Pageant the pain away
This time I'm gonna take the crown
Without falling down, down

Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
Perfection is a disease of a nation
Pretty hurts, pretty hurts
Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
You tryna fix something, but you can't fix what you can't see
It's the soul that needs a surgery

Blonder hair, flat chest
TV says bigger is better
South beach, sugar free
Vogue says
Thinner is better

Just another stage
Pageant the pain away
This time I'm gonna take the crown
Without falling down, down, down

Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
Perfection is a disease of a nation
Pretty hurts, pretty hurts (pretty hurts)
Pretty hurts (pretty hurts)
We shine the light on whatever's worst
We try to fix something, but you can't fix what you can't see
It's the soul that needs the surgery

Ain't got no doctor or pill that can take the pain away
The pain's inside and nobody frees you from your body
It's the soul, it's the soul that needs surgery
(It's my soul that needs surgery)
Plastic smiles and denial can only take you so far
Then you break when the fake façade leaves you in the dark
You left with shattered mirrors and the shards of a beautiful girl

Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst (pretty hurts)
Perfection is a disease of a nation (pretty hurts)
Pretty hurts, pretty hurts
Pretty hurts (pretty hurts)
We shine the light on whatever's worst
We tryna fix something, but you can't fix what you can't see (pretty hurts)
It's the soul that needs a surgery

When you're alone all by yourself (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
And you're lying in your bed (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Reflection stares right into you (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are you happy with yourself? (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
You stripped away the masquerade (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
The illusion has been shed (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are you happy with yourself? (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are you happy with yourself? (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)

Yeah, yes (ah, ah, ah)

I didn't know it was titled that 📀.
All i know and recall is, when that album came out, i was feeling exactly 💯 that pain and for the exact reasons she sings...
I remember thinking to myself, how odd, someone gets me in my deep pain, i never understood she was literally singing my life.
I was miserable inside crying ... I was harassed... I thought it i was physically ugly, my pain would disappear...
Men would hit on me, i couldn't find anything real...
I didn't want to be possessed nor someone's property...
Nor subjugated, so that pain 😭 was very real...
Its too late to try to undo all that wrong in society...
All they can do now is in hindsight try to understand all the wrongdoing they have done.
Women 👠👠 are not "objects" to be possessed as material things ...
And neither are they there for men's sexual gratifications either they don't realize the deep psychological impact they have on these girls.... They cry 😭 inside they scream, imagine being born "desirable" and all you get is possession and harassment ... How do you escape that?
They're low lives functioning in society there's a serious problem in these Men ...
What did the Georgia stones say?
"Control Your passions"? ❤️
I don't understand what passions this could mean?
Then next to it said respect the INFINITE? ♾️
Oh I don't understand what that could mean either.
I like a better song 🎵🎶 one where they sing...
And the world 🌎 suddenly ended 😭 and the survivors were better people. Thanks God 🙏 praise the Lord.

Quiero contar una historia del porque amo esta canción.
Hace aproximadamente un año conocí a una chica, muy hermosa y con un físico increíble que llamaba la atención de mucha gente. Yo soy un chico con baja autoestima y nunca me paso por la mente que yo le gustaría obviamente porque ella para mi era demasiado.
Bueno ella me habló a mi (fue lindo) y ahí inicio una historia de amor.
Eso es solo el comienzo y no tiene nada que ver con la canción, eso es al final de la historia; yo había estado solo por 5 años, sin relaciones de pareja y solo algunas relaciones de amigos porque la mayoría del tiempo estoy solo, ella me trato como yo siempre hubiese querido que me trataran, me enamore profundamente de ella, mi baja autoestima me hizo ser dependiente de ella, la ame mucho, entregue todo de mi y me sentía la persona más feliz del mundo.
Tristemente mi baja seguridad me hizo ser celoso y tóxico, algo que nunca quería llegar a ser, desconfié de ella, la hice sentir mal y decidí trabajar en mi, fui a terapia a sesiones con una psicóloga que me ayudo mucho.
Hice un cambio en mi por ella, no me arrepiento de haberlo hecho porque gracias a ella soy como soy ahora.
En fin a ella le encanta esta canción, nunca me contó porque pero yo creí que fue porque alguna vez en su vida sufrió mucho (la gente decía que no era una chica linda solo tenía un cuerpo definido, para mi era la chica más hermosa!), ella tenía una autoestima muy alta, demasiada seguridad y un amor propio que muchos quisiéramos tener. La relación la termine yo porque mis problemas mentales estaban ocasionando problemas, para no hacerle más daño a ella y por el amor que le tenia decidí pedirle un tiempo lo cual ella lo interpreto como un “no te quiero volver a ver en mi vida”, perdí todo contacto con ella, yo solo quería un tiempo para sanarme, trabajar en mi mismo y darle una estabilidad a la relación, no fue así y ella se fue de mi lado.
Aveces he estado triste porque la extraño y algunas veces recuerdo lo que me decía, subía mi autoestima y me apoyaba mucho, me dejo varias experiencias buenas que me ayudaron a ser mejor, por ejemplo me dejo esta maravillosa canción que me hace recordarla (a ella) y a ser mejor cada día, sentirme bien conmigo mismo y amarme mucho.
Lo diré muchas veces, donde quiera que estes Melissa gracias por la hermosa relación, gracias por tu apoyo, quedan lindos recuerdos, cumple tus sueños, tus objetivos y nunca dejes de ser la chica feliz que conocí “tu sonrisa es lo mejor”.

This song hits so hard
In world where perfection is obsession that accepting the real you and accepting perfection along with imperfection becomes hard
Because we live in a judgemental society where before being human your judged for you appearances and what we wear and whatever you do , good or bad
People will always have something negative to say .

Still even after so many storms
Hold on and love the real you
Self love is the best 🥺😊💜♾️

I feel this so deeply now at 24. I use to sing along to this in middle school as if I really understood this song and its deep meanings, but it was more of a sprinkle of it. Now, it's at the forefront of so many things. It is incredibly difficult to live as a woman in this world, and not care about how you look when it effects how your life as a whole is and how people treat you. But if you choose not to care, it means you have to find a way not to care about how people will continue to feel and treat you, all due to societal bullshit, and more so what makes us human. Human beings are wired to be judgmental. People were literally so mean to me in middle school, just because I wasn't put together and didn't know how to take care of myself. Even then, I was such a kind good kid and didn't look that bad, yet everyone treated me like I was trash on the floor. Especially the boys. It definitely stays with you and is something that you have to work on at some point. I currently am. It's pretty wild how these things are in you, they don't just disappear.

@Toasty I'm not belittling a serious topic; this topic applies to BOTH men and women. Trying to make it sound that women have it worse is ridiculous! We BOTH have our struggles in an increasingly superficial society. Also, it's not men who make other men feel inferior; in fact, it's women. "Tall, dark, and handsome" wasn't invented by men! The 6's rule wasn't invented by men! There are superficial men AND women who project insecurities into young men AND women. The media doesn't make it any easier for men or women. But you simply can't deny that there's been a significant shift in what's perceived attractive by the media when it comes to women. Take a look at the recent Versace's show; beautiful women of different shapes and sizes, but what about the men?! Nothing!

not usual

Wow😢❤

@K S Take in regards that YOUR community of men are the reason there are titles like that! Not women. If you men put in the consistency of trying to make a difference about men’s rights or titles that obviously hurt men — which I 100% have sympathy towards men as a feminist; We wouldn’t even be having this conversation right now or you wouldn’t feel the need in saying which gender gets more “attention,” unlike men women trying to resolve these issues I mean there’s been a woman’s protest since I don’t know how long! Try to talk about the problems without getting on a platform which simply is pointing at women’s issues and those who are addressing it and talk about your own issues on your platform. Cause right there we feel as if your belittling a serious topic.
(By the way I’m not saying you are the only male who does that.)

K S

@Tyrone There are still height and body requirements for BOTH men and women. I'm not saying that women have it easier; they don't. But at least there have been more representation and celebration of women of different body shapes and types. The same can't be said for men and that's simply a fact. Even Lizzo who preaches body positivity and inclusivity only features tall, muscular male models in her music videos! All I'm saying is that the struggle is real for BOTH men and women; I've seen countless young men at the gym who abuse steroids and heard of young men who've lost their lives to steroids. Men are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to get a few inches taller by under high-risk procedures that literally break their bones! All I'm saying is that the media needs to wake up and realize that men are hurting as well, but in silence.

Hey, I know it must be very hard to confront your mother, but If you don't like doing something, you should tell her that. It's common that parents often deposit their life expectations e frustrations on their childs, that's not okay. You do not owe them anything, you are who you are, thus should do what you like.

I struggled with an eating disorder from my teens through my mid 20’s… I feel this song so deep in my soul. There are gorgeous women out there who don’t see what everyone else sees. It breaks my heart because I see how beautiful you all are, I just wish you could see what I see. I also wish the world could see what I see. “If only our eyes saw souls instead of bodies, how different our ideals of beauty would be.”

This is an amazing woman! Her vocals are so strong yet controlled - I’ve never heard her voice crack from strain when she sings acapella - she’s amazing!

She writes songs that inspire women, which is beautiful. She shows what women in beauty pageants go thru trying to obtain perfection. She’s naturally beautiful so it’s a testament to her character as a woman that she’d light on this problem.

Beyoncé- you are one of a kind. You are a once in a lifetime artist just as MJ was. ❤️

Nobody is born ugly, they just live in a place that is full of criticism. You don't have to be perfect to be pretty on the inside. You should never put yourself down to make another happy. You come first Nobody else. You are beautiful, no matter what you are! bi, Lesbian, gay, you are the only one of you. Embrace it

@Achuma Chush literally all they did was say that people should be happy in their own skin I think they did think before they commented. So please stop doing that just because they used sexual orientation for people to be inspired. You need to think before you comment and understand what this person was trying to do.

"Perfection is a disease of a nation ... it's the soul that needs a surgery."
I had almost fully forget the greatness and the supreme of this underated song of Beyoncé. This song has the very curable melodious lines and also the very motivational lyrics inside, it is the best tune to all the need encourage's women and also mothers of today's, the song encouraging the listeners and the audiences by its unintentional beauties of the all settings even the wonderful soundings also the fine production concepts in the visuals also the audios, the wise choosing of the contents of the music album itself is totally the most essential one. The painstaking efforts in this album were showing the much of productivities' Beyoncé, also shown the background music works had widely focus on the music qualities itself, the honesty and the purity of the great precious personalities of the very respectful the songstress Beyoncé had fully put all of herself even all inside her to prove the prominent outstanding refined quality of the very high recommended high production value, even though maybe the contents of the repertoire were considered not commercial friendly perhaps, but the great well exertions and the flexibility among the pop and the alternative variable impressions still are in the very creative come such of outstanding especially among the R&B musics which are so mechanised now. In this worth mentioning album of Beyoncé, much of the remarkable talents behind the music scenes had blessed the album with their representative works also as their most favoured tears shedded literature to empower and give blessed to the final result of the album. The each specialty significant presentation of each song had the unique flowering surprise to let the audience to have the rawest facing to the creator Beyoncé herself, in spite of her performing or her singing which were finely purposed in the album. Lastly, may wish the precious fanatic enthusiasm of Beyoncé could continues prosperous as this precious prestigious album production also more productive and more suffices on the sharing of musics include the publishing of self opinions about arts and musics. Courage and may Beyoncé stay enthusiastic always in music. All The Best. 👍🏻👍🏻

This song isn’t just “good”. It’s a masterpiece, as is this video. As someone who had pretty severe anorexia for four years, I appreciate how well the suffering of perfectionism and weight obsession was captured here. Very emotional but empowering message to rise above our impossibly high and often destructive beauty standards.
