Not Perfection Poem by Grade X Students!
This is written and composed by Shravani Gore & Priyanka Athawale (Grade 10).
[Intro]
She has the perfect eyes Yet she's crying every night You say her life is perfect But is she doing alright?
She wants to do everything
Be the perfect girl you'd ever find She's tried 100 versions of herself Yet she's still a 99...
[Verse 1]
She looks at the moon , she thinks it's so pretty
But what she doesn't know is that it has parts that are dirty She looks in the mirror just to find another flaw
But what she doesn't know is that the mirror could be wrong...
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm fed up of this world
I'm fed up of being perfect
I'm tired of all these standards Only looking at my surface...
[Chorus]
Perfect face, perfect smile
Being perfect all the time
Do they see? Do they care?
Or do my efforts disappear?
Thinking 'bout it every night
Did I step over the line?
Am I being too cringe ?
Or am I way too kind ?
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!
This is what I get
when I try to be perfect
A stain.
[Rap]
Yeah ,
It ain't fun losing the game
Oh my god! Such a shame
Being perfect, is it worth it
If I lose myself in pain?
Yeah I know , it's a losing fight to fight
Yeah I know , you ain't gotta tell me twice
Yeah I know , I can never be the perfect girl
But no I won't give up in front of this world!
[Verse 3]
Yeah I know
I'm just wandering in the dark
Trynna find the light
While I'm losing my own spark
[Bridge]
This is what I get when I try to be perfect
A stain that never leaves but leaves me in regret
I'm praying for a break but I guess I'm out of luck
No matter what I do but I'm never enough
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm fed up of this world
I'm fed up of being perfect
I'm tired of all these standards
Only looking at my surface...
[Chorus]
Perfect face , perfect smile
Being perfect all the time
Do they see ? Do they care ?
Or do my efforts disappear?
Thinking 'bout it every night
Did I step over the line?
Am I being too cringe ?
Or am I way too kind ?
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!
This is what I get
when I try to be perfect
A stain.
