"Iconic" lyrics
Wonder what you think of me now
Wonder if I let you down, down...
Wonder what you'll think of me now
Wonder if you'll turn around, round
This is for the ladies who are more than what they seem
The ones who wake up every day
And paint there with face pretty things
Just to be able to compete
With unrealistic expectations
The obligations of a woman
That just wants some validation
We're brought up on the lie that our women aren't sacred
Just procreators that God gave us
Nothin but baby makers
But its mind over materialism, that's what they should've told us
We don't even grow up, see we just live to get older
Its all a game and I'm folding
This caked up face is just a mask
I'm sick of the liner and lashes
This lipgloss tastes like ass
Go ahead and ask me why I do it
You won't believe me anyway
But women are in competition almost every single day
Impossible bodies are displayed for all to see
Picture perfect figures, but looks can deceive
It's like your buyin the right to say "yeah they wish they were me"
While chasing after somethin that you may never achieve
Wonder what you think of me now
Wonder if I let you down, down...
Wonder what you'll think of me now
Wonder if you'll turn around, round
Who's to say what's beautiful?
Why can't we love ourselves?
Who decides perfection
Why do we so seldom ask for help
Why are we defined by the bodies that were born in
Why does no one warn us of all the fingers they be pointing
Tell me where's the love in all this self hatred
The truth is, no one knows happiness so they try to fake it
You can't tell me that I'm wrong
When I've seen it repeatedly
Were all buying fake smiles
While dying inside secretly
I seen a woman recently
She was crying and in pain
When I asked her what was wrong
She said "It's never gonna change"
I'll never be enough
I'm so scrawny and so plain
And I looked her in eyes
That were a beautiful sparkling green
And I told her it'd be fine, fuck the ones they'll compare you too
There's never gonna be another one
Never gonna be another you
And that something you hold onto
And listen when I tell you, girl
While everyone will change themselves
You'll change the fucking world
Wonder what you think of me now
Wonder if I let you down, down...
Wonder what you'll think of me now
Wonder if you'll turn around round
Wonder what you think of me now
Wonder if I let you down, down...
Wonder what you'll think of me now
Wonder if you'll turn around round
Wonder if I let you down, down...
Wonder what you'll think of me now
Wonder if you'll turn around, round
This is for the ladies who are more than what they seem
The ones who wake up every day
And paint there with face pretty things
Just to be able to compete
With unrealistic expectations
The obligations of a woman
That just wants some validation
We're brought up on the lie that our women aren't sacred
Just procreators that God gave us
Nothin but baby makers
But its mind over materialism, that's what they should've told us
We don't even grow up, see we just live to get older
Its all a game and I'm folding
This caked up face is just a mask
I'm sick of the liner and lashes
This lipgloss tastes like ass
Go ahead and ask me why I do it
You won't believe me anyway
But women are in competition almost every single day
Impossible bodies are displayed for all to see

Wonder what you think of me now
Wonder if I let you down, down...
Wonder what you'll think of me now
Wonder if you'll turn around round
