Her II

Who are we to judge her
no one gave us that right
how do we know everything about her 
when no one gave us that sight
she may be trying to find her confidence
while holding on to her sanity
but we just make fun of her
and call her out in the name of vanity
when we see a million photos of her
only then do we seem to care
maybe she's trying to capture something
she isn't sure is really there
if we're so quick to throw shade
why do we claim to be so bright 
did we forget what it was like 
when we couldn't see our own light 
some of us still don't know our worth
we're just trying to figure it out
but if we judge her for doing the same
then what's it really all about
maybe if we encouraged her more
instead of always putting her down
she would believe that she's a queen
truly worthy of her crown
