Your Own Kind Of Beautiful
Stooshe Lyrics

You say they talk behind your back
You have mentioned that there are people who talk negatively about you behind your back

And now your confidence is gone
Their words have made you lose your self-confidence

Never let them see you cry
Don't give them the satisfaction of seeing you upset

Crack a smile and carry on
Instead, smile and move forward

Everybody wants to cut you up
Society has taught us to judge and criticize people who don't fit a certain mold

So you fit into a little box
As a result, people try to fit themselves into narrow, limiting labels or stereotypes

Ain’t nobody’s business but your own
It's not anybody else's business how you choose to live your life or express yourself

When you’re trying work with what you got
Rather, focus on making the most of your own unique strengths and qualities

So let it go
Let go of the limiting labels or expectations and embrace your authentic self

Shut up and don’t keep putting yourself down
Stop criticizing and belittling yourself

(oh-hu-oh, oh-hu-oh, oh)

Stand up and find your spotlight in the crowd
Instead, stand tall and confidently showcase your unique qualities and strengths to the world

You’re a superstar
You are amazing and talented just the way you are

Exactly how you are
You don't need to change or pretend to be someone else to be valued or loved

You don’t have to try so hard (hey!)
Don't put unnecessary pressure on yourself to fit into society's expectations

Speak up, remember you can have it all
Be confident and speak up for yourself, and don't forget that you are capable of achieving whatever you set your mind to

Just be your own kind of beautiful
Embrace your unique qualities and be proud of who you are, because there is no one else like you

Why can’t we appreciate
It's a question of why society can't appreciate the diversity among individuals

Individuality
The unique qualities and characteristics that make each person different from others

Everyone feels they can rate
People tend to judge or rank each other based on superficial or arbitrary criteria

In magazine society
This type of labeling and judgment is often perpetuated and normalized in media or popular culture

You can follow, or you can lead
You have a choice to either conform to society's expectations and stereotypes or to break free and be yourself

Which one would you rather be?
It's a rhetorical question that encourages listeners to choose to be true to themselves instead of trying to fit in

No one made it there by playing safe
In order to achieve success or happiness, people need to take risks and be willing to stand out from the crowd

We’re going down in history
By being true to yourself and going against societal norms, you may create a legacy that inspires others to do the same

Walk outside and it’s a sunny day
The external world may seem bright and cheerful, but inwardly you might be struggling

But in your eyes is like a hurricane
Your emotions may be strong and intense, like a storm

You got to face it now or run away
It's time to confront these emotions and deal with them head-on, rather than avoiding them

Let it rain, yeah I say, let it rain
Accept and allow the emotions, even if they are difficult or uncomfortable to deal with
