Skin
Ryan J. Simpson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm the one they want to be
Still don't feel I'm good enough
Still don't feel I'm thin enough
I stand up and I push back down
And every opinion now
It makes me feel inhuman
Giving in and giving up
To be worthy
To feel beautiful in this skin
Be beautiful in this skin (Love the skin I'm in)
Love me for me
Have confidence in this skin
Be confident in this skin (In this skin I'm in)
So tell me what is wrong with me
I'm the girl with everything
So why am I not strong enough
I want to be strong enough
To tell you how I really feel
I know that my talent is real
So don't tell me, don't tell me
I have to be 102
I don't have nothing to prove
So don't tell me, don't tell me
I am worthy
To feel beautiful in this skin
Be beautiful in this skin (Love the skin I'm in)
Love me for me
Have confidence in this skin
Be confident in this skin (In this skin I'm in)
Be real, be real
See the beauty inside this skin
I don't have to hide this skin (Love the skin I'm in)
I feel, I feel
An awakening in this skin
Stop forsaking me in this skin
I am, I am
(Beautiful in this skin
'beautiful' lies within
Beautiful in this skin I am)
To be worthy
Be beautiful
Love me for me
'cause I am beautiful
To feel beautiful in this skin
Be beautiful in this skin (Love the skin I'm in)
Love me for me
Have confidence in this skin
Be confident in this skin (In this skin I'm in)
Be real, be real
See the beauty inside this skin
'cause I don't want to have to hide it
I feel, I feel
I'm beautiful in this skin
Beautiful in this skin
I'm beautiful
And you're beautiful
Beautiful in this skin
The song "Skin" by Ryan J. Simpson addresses the theme of self-love and acceptance. The first verse describes the feeling of constantly striving for perfection, yet still feeling like it's not enough. The pressure felt from other people's opinions sometimes make one feel less than human. However, Simpson states that it is important to remain confident and love yourself for who you are, not just for what other people see in you. The chorus emphasizes the importance of self-worth and self-confidence, acknowledging that beauty is not limited to what is seen on the outside. In the second verse, Simpson is seen challenging society's standards of what it means to be strong or successful, expressing the desire to be taken seriously despite what one may look like. The bridge of the song reaffirms the beauty that lies within oneself, and the importance of allowing oneself to be seen and accepted for who they truly are.

@@ruibento9840 Christianity was never about religion.
Souls get forgiven and saved for real.
Sous go down to hell, paying for their sins for themselves for real.
Christ came to set an example how to live for real and He died for all of our sins for real.
Rapture - real life even soon to take place.
Tribulation (Jacob's trouble) - real life event - soon to take place.
Real GOD and His real promises:
1.)Outwardly peace
2.) wisdom and understanding about heavenly thinks
3.) providing food and clothing, expecting souls to seek out His Kingdom.
4.) Protection against every weapons which shall be formed against us.
5.) Free gift = eternal life.
What spot about Christianity seems religious?
GOD is real, humans are real, earth is real. etc.
Logic says, what`s real, means reality.
The facts about religions :
1 = all are lies/ false ways to heaven.
2 = all origin from masons.
Now try with religions.
What religion promises real thinks?
2 BIBLE verse, which share clues about masons:
John 8:44
John 10:1

Wow no Botox... Good on her!
@GoblinsAreAGirlsBestFriend
She was so excellent, honestly. She was so honest in a world of PR-orchestrated, fearful young female pop stars. I LOVED that she was never afraid to look dumb or ditzy, because at the end of the day she was a sweet person and she cared about uplifting other girls. She did a wonderful show on MTV about beauty standards around the world and self-confidence. She was real, and people who made fun of her being any other way were just showing how shallow THEY were!

Very nicely said!!!!

Uh, I'm not sure she could control the ditz. No shade just an observation.
