Scars to Your Beautiful by Alessia Cara Song Info
“Scars To Your Beautiful“ is a song by Alessia Cara which serves as the third single from her debut album Know-It-All. Cara first performed the song at TEDxTeen 2015, and later released it as part of Know-It-All. On July 26, 2016, the song was serviced to Top 40 radio. In an interview with Idolator, Cara explained the meaning behind the track. “Basically, that song is about body image. It’s directed at women, but I think men can relate to it as well. It’s just a song about these things that certain women go through on a daily basis in order to feel loved or in order to love themselves. I think that’s such a thing that goes on in today’s world. These weird things are instilled in us. You know? That tell us that we’re not good enough or that there’s only one kind of beauty. This song basically is contradicting that idea. It’s saying, “Well, if the world doesn’t like how you look then they should change. They should change their perspective. You don’t have to change yourself.” I mean, I thought that that was important, you know, just to put out next. Especially because I think that’s kind of the direction we’re going in, you know, with Here“
