Makiah Rea - Unfiltered Me Lyrics

I'm my own worst critic sometimes
I know how to tear myself apart
Flaws in the mirror always seem so magnified
Comparison twists like a knife inside my heart

What if the ideal was never the goal
What if I was more than my potential
What if I finally bared my soul

I'm letting go of perfection
Finding beauty in my reflection
Take away all the constant editing
No more masks to hide behind
Just the raw image this time
Strip it all away until you see
The Unfiltered Me

I'm so good at playing all these games
I know how to look all together
So sick of striving to be something I'm not
Never enough, always needing to be better

What if the ideal was never the goal
What if I was more than my potential
What if I finally bared my soul

I'm letting go of perfection
Finding beauty in my reflection
Take away all the constant editing
No more masks to hide behind
Just the raw image this time
Strip it all away until you see
The Unfiltered Me

So tired of looking at myself and hating the person I see
I can't take the pressure of who I think I'm supposed to be
No more filters or masks, trying to hide what's underneath
I'm finally falling in love with the unfiltered me

I'm letting go of perfection
Finding beauty in my reflection
Take away all the constant editing
No more masks to hide behind
Just the raw image this time
Strip it all away until you see
The Unfiltered Me
