Your Own Hater

Written By: Grace Van Dyck 

 

VERSE 1

Dear girls all over the world

I bet you’re looking in the mirror

Criticizing yourself

 

When you look at your own reflection

Do you see a girl who’s rocking the world?

I think you should

 

I know it can be hard

To love yourself

But the truth is

We’re all beautiful – So

 

CHORUS

Take a step back

From all the pressure of the world

We need to realize

God sees us as perfect in his own eyes

 

Don’t throw that second dart

At yourself

Your imperfections are your perfections

So stop hating yourself

And start loving you

Don’t be your own hater

 

VERSE 2

I gotta admit I was this way

A few years ago

Trying to be perfect

Not just number one – But bigger and better

 

When I looked at myself

I couldn’t even look at myself

All that was reflected

Were toxic inner voices

 

Sometimes you have to change them

To make your voices like you

Instead of criticizing – Why don’t you

 

CHORUS

 

BRIDGE

Take the dart from the

Outside voice

The person who loves you

Throws the first punch

 

Don’t put the dart in

It is poison

Resist the blame

It only causes shame

 

Don’t put the dart in

It is poison

Resist the blame

It only causes shame

 

ENDING

Dear girls all over the world

I bet you’re looking in the mirror

Criticizing yourself

 

When you look at your own reflection

Do you see a girl who’s rocking the world?

I think you should

 

I know it can be hard

To love yourself

But the truth is

We’re all beautiful…
