Hello, everyone! As you have all been made aware (maybe, if you like to follow my annoucement posts, idk), Faded Gem is going to be made into an audio drama! It will not be out for a long time. I still need all of the proper equipment before I can even release any kind of casting call. But I've been working on the screenplay version and SapphireRose120120 is working on writing the songs! Recently, she's just created this beautiful gem and I'd like to show you the lyrics.
Unfortunately, I have no way to show you the tune (heck, I don't even know the tune yet, Sapphire is still working on getting that to me), but I can show you the lyrics. She's been working so hard for me and I appreciate it. Don't worry, I asked Sapphire's permission first before posting her work here! Anyway, this song is called 'What Beauty Truly Means' and it's during the moment where Rarity is discussing her new beauty campaign with her mother. It's so uplifting and inspirational and I just wanted to share it with all of you! Enjoy! ^_^

"What Beauty Truly Means"
Lyrics and Music by SapphireRose120120
Rarity:
If models had a voice
If we gave models a choice
The world would realize that they're good enough
No more silent cries
No longer will we hide what we have and what we truly love
No more lies
Do not hide behind a facade
The numbers on the scale don't define who we are
Don't you know you're beautiful just the way you are?
Girls
Let's show the world what beauty truly means
Let's embrace our flaws
Let's not try to be one thing
We're unique and that is just a fact
We'll no longer care how people react
Cause it's what beauty truly means
Pearl:
That's great, sweetheart! What else do you have in mind?
Rarity:
We need to focus on many different body types being beautiful. Not just one. I think we should start small with having plus-sized girls model tighter-fitting clothing that they'd normally have smaller girls wear. I don't see how that's fair now, is it?
Pearl:
You are absolutely right!
Rarity:
If all girls saw their worth
Who they were meant to be since birth
The world would realize they don't need to be ashamed
These teen magazines need to start doing something
Or else we'll all believe what they proclaim
No more tears
No more fears based on a mirror
I can help everyone to start seeing clearer
Don't you know you're beautiful just the way you are?
Girls
Let's show the world what beauty truly means
Let's embrace our flaws
Let's not try to be one thing
We're unique and that is just a fact
We'll no longer care how people react
Cause it's what beauty truly means
Rarity and Pearl:
Girls
Let's show the world what beauty truly means
Let's embrace our flaws
Let's not try to be one thing
We're unique and that is just a fact
We'll no longer care how people react
Cause it's what beauty truly means
Rarity:
Cause it's what beauty truly means
