Can We Really Be More Just By Weighing Less?

You will never be enough 
until you are enough with yourself
All the bumpy lumps
The ups..the downs
The smiles and the frowns

Today I saw another ad
  Featuring Carrie Fischer
She's got a famous ma
And a gig with Jenny Craig
 30 pounds lighter..
Blah, Blah, Blah
 
But, what about the soul inside?
The words narrow
Long or wide
Can't describe a soul

A soul is noble, wise or pure
Maybe wicked on occasion
It can't be weighed, it's quite obscure
And needs no coaxing or persuasion

To do what it's here to do
That timing is up to us

One thing I know for God Damn sure
The soul's not better if we have a smaller gut
Or a tighter ass, or bigger boobs
None of that shit matters

If you're not enough with the weight
You'll never be enough without it

Don't you realize?

It's the soul you carry, not the weight
So if you're gonna exercise, exercise your right
 Attend to your life's gig and make THAT tight
And stop worrying so much about your thighs
