Confident is important, and it must be built from now as well. And recently, The Maine released the music video that is inspiring to those who feel not confident or ugly. The Maine dedicate a song Am I Pretty?

“You are beautiful because your eyes are different sizes and your lisp gets in between your tongue and teeth every time you try to say ‘something’. You are beautiful because the scar under your chin looks like a spider and because you have a massive fear of heights. You are beautiful because there never has been, nor will there ever be anyone else on this Earth like you. Because your flaws are like fingerprints and should be embraced just like the free will that resides inside. You are not beautiful because of the symmetry in the little squares on your telephone, you are beautiful because “you” are the only “you” this place will ever know.

-John C. O’Callaghan V.”

Song lyrics The Maine – Am I Pretty?

You think I’m ugly
(Don’t you?)
And I know you hate my body
If you don’t like just what I do
Do what you like
So maybe then you’ll want me
Maybe then you’ll want me

Am I pretty?
Do people like me yet?
Is there a party?
Am I invited?
It’s such a pity?
No one adores me yet
So make me up in a shade that fits me
Tell me love oh “Am I pretty?”

You make me feel like (like, like, like)
Confetti for the gathering
So I’ll get used
To getting used
I’ll do that for you
So maybe then you’ll have me
Maybe then you’ll have me

Am I pretty?
Do people like me yet?
Is there a party?
Am I invited?
It’s such a pity?
No one adores me yet
So make me up in a shade that fits me
Tell me love oh “Am I pretty?”
oh “Am I pretty?”
yeah “Am I pretty?”

There’s beauty and grace in the flaws of your face
All candor and style in the crook of your smile
There’s beauty and grace in the flaws of your face
All candor and style

Am I pretty?
Do people like me yet?
Is there a party?
Am I invited?
It’s such a pity?
No one adores me yet
So make me up in a shade that fits me
Tell me love oh “Am I pretty?”
yeah “Am I pretty?”
oh “Am I pretty?”
“Am I pretty?”
oh “Am I pretty?”

Song meaning :

You are not alone in whatever you are going through. Whether you messed up or feel messed up, you are beautiful and deserving of life.

Overall, the moral message is one way to encourage love yourself.

The song was also a reminder that you do not know what one faces internally, so you also should not judge everyone because you really do not know their story.

“Am I Pretty?” is sarcastic, social-aware song that is one track on the album American Candy

Great job The Maine!
