RAYE - Body Dysmorphia.
I let my fingers pinch my skin
I’m so hungry I can’t sleep
But I know if I eat
Then I’ll be in the bathroom on my knees
I hate the way my face is square
I hate my arms inside these sleeves
for this hourglass we all desire
I wear 3 corsets underneath
XL T-shirts, baggy jeans
so I don’t have to stress about it
Marijuanah everyday so I cannot obsess about it
How can I expect you to romance me touch my body baby
I don’t even want to take it off for you
So turn the lights off
I don’t really like my body
But knowing it’s my only body
I should prolly call somebody
I should really show you how I’m feeling inside
Matter fact I’m glad you called me
I’ve been hiding I been high and
I’ve been sleeping hungry
I hug my knees I squeeze my waist
There’s so much that I want to change
Yes lately I’ve been thinking bout the ways to rearrange my face
I wanna cut pieces off
Looking in the mirror
want to take a pair of scissors
Sadly dear
I wanna cut pieces off
Lately I’ve been so depressed about it
No one sees what I can see and I’m so fucking scared about it
How can I expect you to romance me
touch my body baby
I don’t want to take it off for you until you turn the lights off
I think when I grow older I’m going to get a nose job
I have a bump in my nose and it’s ugly
When I grow up I want to be skinny but with an hourglass figure
I hope I’ll be pretty when I grow up or I think I’ll be sad

[@emmanueltrejos3115]

I'm so proud of you, RAYE! I truly appreciate the fact that you decided to be an independent artist so your true voice can be heard. This album is incredible!

[@AN4_4]

I agree!!!😭🫶🏾

[@MF22.]

No cap.

[@xrrumi]

YESS

[@xHachiko33]

this song had me in tears and then it got to the ending with the little girl and i lost it. i wish i could accept every part of my body and be happy with it. 😢

[@v.m.e.6641]

Same here. You are not alone. I hope you'll feel better one day :)

[@nikee7677]

Same my boyfriend just came into the room like are you ok? I was balling after this song its so powerful and I hope the next generation won't be as affected by the unrealistic images on social media!

[@MonaLisa.16]

This album is so beautiful in the story-telling, lyrics, metaphorical meaning, the production, everything has been crafted so incredible. i’m in awe Raye

[@Crz4Tay]

Whats awe

[@sophieharris97]

​@@Crz4Tay a feeling of reverential respect mixed with fear or wonder.

[@komraks.388]

im grateful for this album ❤️ listening to the whole of it the first time tonight and just felt overwhelmed with feelings

[@tanayajd.667]

I had no idea she felt like this! I'm a new fan and I was mainly drawn to the fact that she is so gorgeous and her voice matches. This is such a deep album.

[@CAI.DREAMS]

I’m obsessed with this entire album. I’ll admit this is the hardest song for me to listen to but I very much appreciate this song. I’m so blessed to experience RAYE’s music.

[@Mariiiii2505]

I let my fingers pinch my skin
I'm so hungry, I can't sleep
But I know if I eat
Then I'll be in the bathroom on my knees
I hate the way my face is square
I hate my arms inside these sleeves
For this "hourglass" we all desire
I wear 3 corsets underneath
XL T-shirts, baggy jeans
So I don't have to stress about it
Marijuana every day, so I cannot obsess about it
How can I expect you to romance me
Touch my body, baby
I don't even want to take it off for you
So turn the lights off
And I don't really like my body
But knowing it's my only body
I should pro'ly call somebody
I should really show you how I'm feeling inside
Matter fact, I'm glad you called me
I've been hiding, I been high
And I've been sleeping hungry
I hug my knees, I squeeze my waist
There's so much that I want to change
Yes, lately I've been thinking 'bout the ways to rearrange my face
I wanna cut pieces off
Looking in the mirror
Want to take a pair of scissors
Sadly dear
I wanna cut pieces off
Lately, I've been so depressed about it
No one sees what I can see and I'm so fuckin' scared about it
How can I expect you to romance me
Touch my body, baby
I don't want to take it off for you
Until you turn the lights off
And I don't really like my body
But knowing it's my only body
I should pro'ly call somebody

When I grow up I want to be skinny but with an "hourglass figure"
I hope I'll be pretty when I grow up or I think I'll be sad

[@forestfairy261]

It's so sad that many of us have to go through this, and at least for me sometimes I feel like no one can understand me, but this song does. I actually remember seeing Raye for the first time and thinking she was so perfect and beautiful, and that I wished I had her body. But we only got our body... 😞

[@e11a222]

this is exactly what it feels like to have body dysmorphia :( love it

[@kevinmaikel3178]

This is how you make a debut grl

[@AN4_4]

Literally no skips

[@themusicdiaries1179]

Sonically and lyrically this has to be the best song off the album

[@CandyKissesBabby]

I lost 110 lbs.. I 100% have major mental body issues.. this song has absolutely touched me to tears.. just amazing ❤😭

[@FoodIsOverrated]

Same here, I started my journey 6 months ago and I still see myself fat in the mirror and this song brought me to tears.

[@Mareesindigo]

Beautiful RAYE! Ive been following your journey and I’m so glad that you’re finally able to be the true you and opening up all that you’ve been through! You’re an inspiration to women everywhere! I live for this new album and I live for the new you! 🫶🏼❤️

[@Madpencildust22]

She sings every thing we go through as women. Her style is a mix of old school with her own originality. 🔥🔥🔥Her voice is unique and unlike any other.

[@evelynfever]

Most times we see such beautiful people, and don't know or realize what they really go through. It's unfortunate how so many can relate to this.

[@robynjancik8401]

You're an amazing artist, taking that trauma and using it in the creative process.. BE proud!!!

[@mya_mymy]

I’ve been suffering from body dysmorphia since I was 14.. it hurts because till this day I don’t see what people see. and unfortunately everyday I want to get my body done.. but I had to think about it.. “will I even be happy when it’s done” ..

[@themusicdiaries1179]

This is one off the best songs off this rocking album. I love it

[@cookycutie]

Finally a song about Dysmorphia , due a traumatic event i lost sooooo much wait i went anorexic in few days only i started to vomit involuntarily, i lost so much wait i started to get sick and my health declined, i was sick in bed , it took many months b4 i could finally go outside the first time i saw myself in my old my old clothes i was shook it hot me that i lost so much weight nothing was fitting my weight was alarmingly low i saw it but my brain was convincing me that i was fine and not underweight, everyone arround me kept silent bc they were scared of my reaction to how awful i looked my hair was falling , i was clearly anorexic but i myself kept convincing myself that i. Was fine , till health problems showed , it took SOO MUCH to improve love my unhealthy body and start to try to get better , no matter what i didnt i didn't gain weight , it took years for my body to finally start working a little and be somewhat healthy , i still need to gain some kilos to get to the normal weight but compared to how i was i am finally better , i can finally rely on my body to work and do daily tasks, this song remind me how it felt , my body was alarmingly underweight i couldn't even walk or run and my brain convinced me i should loose weight, and in between i was only hating myself and my body i was in a whole other dimension i couldnt relate to anyone or anything i felt so strange and so diffent the betrayal of having an unhealthy body that wont allow you to do anything is terrifying.
