Alessa Cara is one of those singers who sings songs that actually resonate with you because they're so relatable. It might help that she's my age but I honestly just love her and her voice. She has a unique voice and doesn't sound like every other pop singer out there.

1. I would rather be at home all by myself not in this room
With people who don't even care about my well-being

-“Here”

2. She don't see her perfect, she don't understand she's worth it
Or that beauty goes deeper than the surface

-“Scars To Your Beautiful

3. Oh, I'm human after all, I'm not your expectations

-“My Song”

4. See, I need you and sometimes we need to
Shed our facade and be just who we are

-“Four Pink Walls”

5. And you don't have to change a thing, the world could change its heart

-“Scars To Your Beautiful”

6. And I wasn't trying to fall in love
But boy you pushed me
So all that I'm asking
Is that you handle me with caution

-“I’m Yours”

7. See I was racing and waiting for the day that I would be old enough
Guess I'll be patient and pace myself gotta prepare for when goings rough

-“Seventeen”

8. You should know you're beautiful just the way you are

-“Scars To Your Beautiful

9. So much on my mind
I think I think too much

-“Stone”

10. All of the days that I wasted gazing outside the window
Impatient frustrations let out into my pillow
Lied awake at night while my head wandered
And I wondered why

-“Four Pink Walls”

11. I realize that sometimes life brings you flowers
Then it builds you coffins

-“River of Tears”

12. In my time here, I wanna be revered and remembered
Oh, let them say I came, I conquered
So I won't fear and I can't blend in
You can't replace me and you cannot erase me

-“My Song”

13. Always keep your closest friends they can't slip away
They keep you grounded

-“Seventeen”
