BeYoutiful
Embrace Your Uniqueness with 'BeYoutiful' by Paapa Versa
Lyrics
She looks in the mirror
Self-reflection in front of a mirror
She doesn't like what she sees
Expressing dissatisfaction with her appearance
She thinks she's a thriller
Believing she's exciting or interesting
She thinks she's ugly
Perceiving herself as unattractive
People have broken her pillar
Others have damaged her support or confidence
Her faith is now weak
Her faith in herself is now diminished
But I got a message from Jesus
Receiving a message from Jesus
He told me
Transition to Jesus' message
He told me "you're a star to me
Jesus affirming her as a star
I made you who you are, so be
God's role in shaping her identity
So be you, beautiful
Encouragement to embrace and be proud of her uniqueness
Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful"
-Your laugh might be a little scary
Acknowledging a distinctive laugh
Ok maybe not a little… maybe very
Exaggerating the scariness of the laugh
And yes, maybe you might have a stammer
Acknowledging a possible speech impediment
But you see that doesn't matter
Emphasizing that imperfections don't matter
Because you're an image of Jesus
Connecting her to an image of Jesus
So you just have a perfectly imperfect appearance
Embracing imperfections as part of divine design
And if you are just an image, then I have to see His face
Expressing a desire to see Jesus in her
It's a song that's been locked up in my heart cells, cardiac tissues
Describing a song confined within the artist's heart
You can call me cobbler cause I'm trying to fix this issue/ish-shoe
Play on words with "issue" and "shoe"
Make-up on so thick you wouldn't need winter sheets
Describing heavy makeup
Each day, I get a little more weak/week
Feeling progressively vulnerable
See when you were created God said "look at who I made now.
God expressing pride in her uniqueness
I have made nobody like her. I'm so proud!"
God's affirmation of her special creation
So go now go shine, no solar eclipse
Encouragement to shine without hindrance
Cause God told me this
Reiterating God's message to shine
He told me "you're a star to me
Repeating the message to embrace her beauty
I made you who you are, so be
-So be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful"
-We are a beautiful because of Jesus
Affirming collective beauty through Jesus
We want you to know that's how he sees us
-We are a beautiful because of Jesus
-'Cause you are worth it
-And you are perfect
Affirming individual worth and perfection
Be you, beautiful
Final encouragement to be oneself and embrace beauty
Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
-Be you, beautiful
