第一次聽這首歌,真的是撲簌簌淚點拋,我覺得她點出了現在女生心中的痛,

不管我們現在幾歲、有多瘦,我們永遠都覺得自己不夠美不夠瘦,卻忽略了人生中真正重要的事,

我們不停的用女明星的照片苛責自己,卻沒發現99.99%女生都是一樣平凡。

你真正喜歡的朋友絕對不是你認識中最漂亮的那一個,而是個性最美的那一個。

我們走在路上總是不由自主的評價路人,"那個女生橘皮組織那麼厲害還敢穿熱褲!"

殊不知妳在指著別人的同時,也有人指著妳說"那個女生超瘦,但是臉超醜的!"

我們應該從自己做起,不想被評價,就先停止評價別人。

看著廚房辛苦煮飯的媽媽背影,妳一定覺得年華老去的媽媽還是超美,

因為媽媽的美已經超然於外表,不是嗎?

希望這首充滿正面能量的歌,能夠讓妳煥然一新,找回失去已久的自己。

 

 

這是 Alessia Cara 2017年在VMA的現場演唱,

從一開始的隆重打扮一層一層剝掉自己的裝扮,

最後只剩下沒有任何裝飾真正的自己,勇敢的表達自己的訴求。

 

Alessia Cara - Scars To Your Beautiful


She just wants to be beautiful
她只是想要變得更美
She goes unnoticed, she knows no limits,
她覺得自己毫不起眼  她知道渴求美麗是沒有極限的
She craves attention, she praises an image,
她尋求關注  她崇拜讚頌一個完美的形象
She prays to be sculpted by the sculptor
她祈求上天派一個雕塑家  把她重新雕塑成完美女神


see the light that's shining
看那裡有一道光正閃閃發亮
Deeper than the eyes can find it
隱藏在膚淺的外表下  閃閃發亮的自己
Maybe we have made her blind
也許是這個世界讓她變得如此盲目
So she tries to cover up her pain, and cut her woes away
所以她試著隱藏自己的痛苦  遮掩她的哀傷
'Cause covergirls don't cry after their face is made
因為擁有完美妝容的封面女孩是不會哭的


But there's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark
但是在暗處一直有一個希望  默默地等待妳去發現
You should know you're beautiful just the way you are
妳要知道  其實認真生活做自己的妳是最美的
And you don't have to change a thing
妳不需要做任何改變
The world could change its heart
需要改變的是這個世界
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful
妳的美是毫無瑕疵的  我們閃閃發亮而且我們超美的


My peers and then there was me
總是我的同學優先  然後才輪到我
A lot of people aren't afraid to give their opinions 
whether they're hurtful or not.
很多人都不怕發表自己的意見  不管別人是不是會因此受傷
People would laugh and stare
大家都會一邊嘲笑一邊盯著我看
People watching you eat and making little comments.
人們看著妳吃東西  然後在旁邊竊竊私語
As I grew up thinking that I had to look a certain way.
當我長大後思考  我必須要尋求某一種方式
I never thought I was as pretty as the other girls.
我從來都不覺得自己像其他女孩一樣漂亮 
Be proud, I shouldn't be trying to hide it.
我要為自己感到驕傲  我不應該隱藏我自己


Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
妳不需要做任何改變
The world could change its heart
需要改變的是這個世界
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful
妳的美是毫無瑕疵的  我們閃閃發亮而且我們超美的


She has dreams to be an envy, so she's starving
她夢想成為所有女人羨慕忌妒恨的對象  所以她每天都餓得要死
You know, "Covergirls eat nothing."
妳知道嗎  "封面女孩是不吃東西的"
She says, "Beauty is pain and there's beauty in everything."
她說  "美麗是痛苦的而且美是無所不在的"
"What's a little bit of hunger?"
"餓一點肚子算什麼"
"I could go a little while longer," she fades away
"我可以再撐一陣子"  說著這些話的她  身上逐漸地失去光彩


What I love about people is when thet're just being themselves,
and not worrying about what they look like.
我最愛人們展現真正的自己
而一點都不煩惱自己現在漂不漂亮的時候
Eyelashes and my hair extensions,
that's you always want what you don't have.
戴假睫毛跟接髮  我總是想要我沒有的東西
It's been something I've struggled with my entire life.
如果要說有什麼事  在我人生中一直苦苦掙扎
Not feeling like I fit in.
絕對不是穿不穿的下某件衣服


She don't see her perfect, she don't understand she's worth it
她完全看不見她完美的地方  她不知道她值得
Or that beauty goes deeper than the surface
真正的美麗是比膚淺的外表更有深度的
Ah oh, ah ah oh,
So to all the girls that's hurting
所以我想要對所有曾經受傷的女孩們說
Let me be your mirror, help you see a little bit clearer
讓我當妳的鏡子  幫助妳可以稍微看清楚一點
The light that shines within
妳內心的正散發出美麗的光芒
There's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark
一直有希望在暗處默默的等待著妳
You should know you're beautiful just the way you are
妳要知道原原本本真實的妳非常的美
And you don't have to change a thing
妳不必強迫自己改變什麼
The world could change its heart
需要改變的是這個世界
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful
妳的美是沒有瑕疵的  我們閃閃發亮而且我們超美的


Hold on and just wait until you can get out of that bubble.
暫停一下  靜靜地等待妳自己願意走出  自己編織的美麗的幻想中
Bacause the things that seem like weaknesses,
有時候有些事看起來似乎是你的缺點
That seem like weird things that make you strange,
或你有一些跟別人不一樣的外表或行為  讓你看起來很奇怪
When you become an adult and get out into the world,
當你長大成人走出家庭進入社會
You're gonna find out that all those differences,
你會發現在你身上這一切與眾不同的事情
They're like your greatest strengths.
它們會成為你最大的力量


Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
妳不必強迫自己改變什麼
The world could change its heart
這世界是可以改變的
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful
妳的美是毫無瑕疵的  我們閃閃發亮而且我們超美的


No better you than the you that you are
(no better you than the you that you are)
沒有比真正的自己更好的自己
No better life than the life we're living
(no better life than the life we're living)
沒有比現在認真生活的我們更好的生活了
No better time for your shine, you're a star
(no better time for your shine, you're a star)
沒有更佳的時機綻放妳的光芒  妳一直都在閃閃發亮
Oh, you're beautiful, oh, you're beautiful
妳很美  真的很美


A lot of it was in my own head I realize now.
有很多事情我現在才意識到
Theres always someone that's unique now,
這個世界上永遠都有一些特別的人存在
which is what the cool part,
這是最酷的地方
and that's what made me comfortable to realize 
that every single person is different.
當我意識到  這個世界上每個人都不一樣之後  讓我感到安心自在
 Personality outshines everything else at the end of the day.
到頭來  個性勝過所有的一切
What only matters is what I think of myself
我怎麼看我自己才是唯一重要的事
and that everyone has different kinds of beauty.
而且每個人都有屬於自己最特別的美
smile.smile.
微笑 微笑


Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
妳不需要做任何改變
The world could change its heart
需要改變的是這個世界
No scars to your beautiful, we're stars and we're beautiful
妳的美是沒有瑕疵的  我們閃閃發亮而且我們超美的

 

 


Often times, the world both directly and indirectly tells us that we shouldn't be happy with ourselves if we don't fit certain beauty standards.

Scars to your beautiful is a reminder that beauty isn't only one look, shape, size or colour. It isn't even always tangible.

It comes in an endless amount of forms and we need to recognize that.

大部分的時候,這個世界總是直接或間接地告訴我們,如果我們不是世俗眼中的標準美,我們就不應該感到開心。

這首歌希望可以提醒大家美不是只有一種長相、外型、尺碼、顏色。美甚至不是總是有形的。

美存在於各式各樣不同的地方以各種形態存在,我們必須意識到這一點。
