Percaya diri itu penting, dan itu harus dibangun mulai sekarang juga. Dan baru saja, The Maine merilis musik video yang inspiratif untuk mereka yang minder. The Maine mendedikasikan dengan sebuah lagu Am I Pretty?
“You are beautiful because your eyes are different sizes and your lisp gets in between your tongue and teeth every time you try to say ‘something’. You are beautiful because the scar under your chin looks like a spider and because you have a massive fear of heights. You are beautiful because there never has been, nor will there ever be anyone else on this Earth like you. Because your flaws are like fingerprints and should be embraced just like the free will that resides inside. You are not beautiful because of the symmetry in the little squares on your telephone, you are beautiful because “you” are the only “you” this place will ever know.
-John C. O’Callaghan V.”

Lirik lagu The Maine – Am I Pretty?
You think I’m ugly
(Don’t you?)
And I know you hate my body
If you don’t like just what I do
Do what you like
So maybe then you’ll want me
Maybe then you’ll want meAm I pretty?
Do people like me yet?
Is there a party?
Am I invited?
It’s such a pity?
No one adores me yet
So make me up in a shade that fits me
Tell me love oh “Am I pretty?”You make me feel like (like, like, like)
Confetti for the gathering
So I’ll get used
To getting used
I’ll do that for you
So maybe then you’ll have me
Maybe then you’ll have meAm I pretty?
Do people like me yet?
Is there a party?
Am I invited?
It’s such a pity?
No one adores me yet
So make me up in a shade that fits me
Tell me love oh “Am I pretty?”
oh “Am I pretty?”
yeah “Am I pretty?”There’s beauty and grace in the flaws of your face
All candor and style in the crook of your smile
There’s beauty and grace in the flaws of your face
All candor and styleAm I pretty?
Do people like me yet?
Is there a party?
Am I invited?
It’s such a pity?
No one adores me yet
So make me up in a shade that fits me
Tell me love oh “Am I pretty?”
yeah “Am I pretty?”
oh “Am I pretty?”
“Am I pretty?”
oh “Am I pretty?”
