Feeling Not-So-Hott

It’s waking up feeling not-so-hott
Being ignored by someone you like a lot
Loving someone you thought you despised
Feeling like a loser in everyone’s eyes

Trying to be cool, gonna be “bad”
Then being told you look like your mom; act like your dad
Nothing you do ever turns out right
Lying in bed at night thinking “gotta get me a life”

You don’t get the attention that you crave
You’re lost with no clue how to behave
You’re head-over-heels with someone you never see
Cuz the other guys just let you be

You played by the rules, obeyed the game
But none of the boys even know your name
The other girls got the catch of the day
While silently you watch them strut away

Feeling unimportant, like nobody cares
Your problems are trivial compared to theirs
All your life playing second best
Nothing but average, mixed in with the rest

But that’s a lie, someone always loves you
You can’t see Him, but His love is true
He takes you as are, smoothes out the rough edges
Tends to your wounds, puts ice on your bruises

He gave everything for your life
So walk with Him in His light
Next to Him you belong
There’s a place just for you within His arms

So be prepared for trial, opposition, temptations
They’re here to stop you, to cause frustrations
To steer you from the path you know
And lead you way down deep below

Remember what you stand for, who you are
Keep your values, raise the bar
You deserve nothing short of great
But sometimes it requires a little wait

You are important, lose the blues
He’ll drop everything and come for you
You’re not second fiddle, instead the best
The crème de la crème, cut above the rest
