Scars To Your

    Beautiful

    Artist: Alessia Cara

    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 cover girls 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

    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, cover girls 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

    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

    Background

    This is a song by Canadian singer-songwriter Alessia Cara for her debut studio album, “Know-It-All.” It’s a social anthem defying the stigma around suppression of personal outlook. The composition boasts solidity, with a unique drum base retro sports themed pump-up tune gelling perfectly with finger clicks. Cara’s vocals are iconic and strong.
