Brye
Diet Culture (Stripped)
[Verse 1]
My smaller friend is bloated and has to announce it
My mother-in-law needs shape-wear so her bits fit right
Someone I just met jokes that they forget
To eat until it's the middle of the night
[Chorus]
And I know their worst fear is to look like me
And that fact makes me want to kill somebody
I'm eating at the counter and you're talkin' about your weight
I usually don't hate you, but today I'm enraged
[Verse 2]
You look at me with pity, just know I do the same to you
What a sad life you live, afraid to gain a pound or two
I know that feeling well, and I can always tell
When someone is controlled by their food
[Chorus]
I know their worst fear is to look like me
And that fact makes me want to kill somebody
I'm eating at the counter and you're talkin' about your weight
I usually don't hate you, but today I'm enraged
I know at this point that everybody
Hates themselves and hates their bodies
But I've put in the work, yeah, I've done my time
I'm taking up the space that is rightfully mine
[Bridge]
There's nothing wrong with my body, "fat" is not a dirty word
If my body tells me something, I will make sure it is heard
If my body is a vessel, I will give it what it needs
I will not betray my body, no matter what they think of me
[Outro]
There's nothing wrong with my body, "fat" is not a dirty word
If my body tells me something, I will make sure it is heard
If my body is a vessel, I will give it what it needs
I will not betray my body, no matter what they think of me
