That song is essentially about body image. It’s aimed at ladies, but I believe males will enjoy it as well. It’s simply a song about the struggles that certain women face daily in order to feel loved or to love themselves. That, I believe, is a common occurrence in today’s environment (Scars to your beautiful lyrics).

These strange things are ingrained in us. Do you know what I mean? That tells us we’re not good enough or that there is only one type of beauty. This song essentially contradicts that notion. It’s saying, ‘Well, if the rest of the world doesn’t like the way you look, they should change.’ They should reconsider their position. You do not need to alter.’ I mean, I thought it was essential to put that out there next. Especially since I believe that is the route we are heading with ‘Here.’ (Scars to your beautiful lyrics)

‘Here’ was about not belonging anywhere, and ‘Wild Things’ was about finding a place where you belong. ‘Scars To Your Beautiful’ is essentially about loving oneself and finally reaching a point where you feel love and can love yourself. I believe it is appropriate to place third because I now have a larger platform. The song’s goal is to reach as many women or individuals as possible. (Scars to your beautiful lyrics)

Scars to your beautiful lyrics

She just wants to be, beautiful
She goes, unnoticed she knows, no limits
She craves, attention she praises, an image
She prays to be, sculpted by the sculptor
Oh, she don’t see, the light that’s shining
Deeper than the eyes can find it
Maybe we have made her blind
So she tries to cover up her pain
And cut her woes away
‘Cause covergirls don’t cry
After their face is made
But there’s a hope that’s waiting for you in the dark
You should know you’re beautiful just the way you are
And you don’t have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful
We’re stars and we’re beautiful
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don’t have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful
We’re stars and we’re beautiful
She has dreams to be an envy, so she’s starving
You know, covergirls eat nothing
She says, beauty is pain and there’s beauty in everything
What’s a little bit of hunger?
I could go a little while longer, she fades away
She don’t see her perfect
She don’t understand she’s worth it
Or that beauty goes deeper than the surface
Oh-oh, oh-oh
So to all the girls that’s hurting
Let me be your mirror
Help you see a little bit clearer
The light that shines within
There’s a hope that’s waiting for you in the dark
You should know you’re beautiful just the way you are
And you don’t have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful
We’re stars and we’re beautiful
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don’t have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful
We’re stars and we’re beautiful
No better you than the you that you are
(No better you than the you that you are)
No better life than the life we’re living
(No better life than the life we’re living)
No better time for your shine, you’re a star
(No better time for your shine, you’re a star)
Oh, you’re beautiful, oh, you’re beautiful
There’s a hope that’s waiting for you in the dark
You should know you’re beautiful just the way you are
And you don’t have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful
We’re stars and we’re beautiful
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don’t have to change a thing
The world could change its heart
No scars to your beautiful
We’re stars and we’re beautiful.
