SCARS TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL

                                                                                       

            So for this week we are going to write a song review called “Scars To Your Beautiful” recorded by Canadian singer and songwriter Alessia Cara.Basically, this song is about body image. It's directed to women, but I think men can relate to it as well. It's just a song about these things that certain women go through on a daily basis in order to feel loved or in order to love themselves. I think that this issues is what that goes onto today's world. These weird issues are instilled in us. For examples ,they tell us that we’re not good enough or that there's only one kind of beauty in this world. This song basically is argue against that idea. It's saying, 'Well, if the world doesn't like how you look then they should change. They should change their perspective. You don’t really have to change yourself. “Scars To Your Beautiful” is basically about embracing yourself and finally coming to that conclusion where you feel love and you can love yourself. As a person that go through insecurities,this song means a lot to me to be honest. I don’t feel confident but listening to this song literally boost up my confidence level.

Scars to your beautiful by Alessia Cara was release on 2015 , by that time Alessia was 20 years old inspired to wrote this song about her own personal struggles. Alessia share how, as the daughter of a hairdresser, she always enjoyed experimenting with new looks when she was younger. Despite this, she also acknowledged that she struggled with self-consciousness and constant hair issues. She soon began straightening her hair, which, in her opinion, may have been the cause of her hair loss in middle and elementary school.

                                                some of the lyrics from the song

 

You will understand the concept of this song once you watch the official music video. This song, which is both heartbreaking and tragic, illustrates how women endure daily suffering due to their appearance. She "doesn't perceive herself as perfect, and she doesn't realize she's worth it." This statement describes how how other people's opinions might alter how you see yourself. The message that Alessia conveys in this song is that you are unique, attractive, and different from everyone else. Changing who you are is not necessary. When girls are gorgeous, they are viewed favourably while the ugly one are avoided. Alessia exhorts all women to embrace their unique selves and resist falling prey to the ideal of beauty. In essence, there is a person who is completely unloved and unnoticed while yearning to be anything other than herself, which finally leaves wounds on her beautiful. In a metaphorical sense, her lovely spirit bears wounds. This song highlights the fact that beauty may take many different forms. The main message of the song is that you should accept your scars since they make you special and attractive in your own way. It's about being self-assured and resisting pressure to conform to social norms regarding one's appearance and behaviour.
