00:00Hi, it's Lizzo for Brut.
00:02How do you want to live your life?
00:03Do you want to be unhappy with yourself every fucking day?
00:06Or do you want to be happy with the body you were given
00:10and the person that you are?
00:12It's just accepting yourself.
00:13It's not rocket science.
00:15It's hard because they made it hard,
00:17not because it's naturally hard, you know?
00:21But I mean, like, how important is it to you, like,
00:25to send this message to me, like,
00:28accept yourself, like, just fuck everything,
00:31like, just accept yourself?
00:32It's important to me because I just,
00:35it's important to me because it's what I'm doing.
00:53Going to school every day did not make me happy.
00:56Having to listen to my parents didn't make me happy.
01:00Puberty didn't make me happy.
01:04Sweating a bunch and all of that shit, that sucked.
01:07Not knowing if anyone liked me and
01:10all of that uncertainty that comes with youth
01:13didn't really make me happy.
01:14And the older I got,
01:16I realized that all of those things
01:17that didn't make me happy were gone.
01:19Don't nobody tell me what to do, you know?
01:22I've bought all the things that make me look nice
01:25and I smell good and I like my body
01:27and I've settled into myself and my hormones.
01:31I don't gotta go to fucking school no more,
01:33I go to work and I do a job that makes me happy.
01:35Like, just find the shit that makes you happy
01:38and all of this shit that's kind of a bummer right now,
01:42give it time and you'll look around and it'll be gone
01:45and you'll be surrounded by your friends, you know,
01:47having a fucking drink and laughing
01:51and having kids and making them go through that shit.
01:55It's just a circle of life, man.
01:57I think you gotta think about life as bigger than the day.
02:00It's not just today.
02:01Like, live in the moment but, you know,
02:04don't just, you know, be a victim to the moment.
02:07You know, you have the promise of tomorrow
02:09to have a fresh start and to be better.
02:13It's just shitty, man.
02:15I got teased, I got made fun of, I was sad.
02:18I didn't wanna look like myself.
02:20I wanted to be somebody else.
02:21Like, that's just a part of it.
02:24You know, you look at magazines
02:25and you think of things you wanna change.
02:27You think of things that you wanna fix on your body
02:30and you feel like you don't belong in your friend group.
02:35You feel like the ugly one in your friends,
02:37the undesirable one.
02:39You feel like boys don't like you, girls don't like you.
02:41You don't even know what you like.
02:43It's hard, you know, we're confused.
02:46But you just gotta spend, you gotta take, you gotta just,
02:49you just gotta find your own story.
02:51Find your own success story, you know.
02:54You can't have my success story, you know,
02:56but you can have your own
02:57and I think that's the beauty of it.
03:00Don't try to rush into someone else's success.
03:05You just do you.
03:08You're not gonna listen to a Lizzo song and be like,
03:10you know what?
03:12Lizzo's gonna change my life.
03:13No, you're gonna change your life.
03:15You know what I'm saying?
03:16Because that's how I had to do it.
03:18I ain't got no fucking magic wand, you know.
03:20You just have to, you just gotta do it yourself.
03:23And that's, it's shitty because we don't wanna
03:26really do anything ourselves
03:27because we're sold on this idea that like,
03:30there's a magic pill or there's a magic machine.
03:33If you don't care about my message, you don't have to.
03:36This is for people who need to hear it.
03:39And if that was one person, that would have been cool,
03:42but luckily it's millions of people
03:44because I think millions of people
03:45just wanna feel better about themselves.
03:52I gotta take this bra off.
03:56I gotta take my fucking bra off.
03:59It hurts.
03:59The longer you deal with yourself,
04:01the more you accept it, you know.
04:06Just like with anything, just like with that bra.
04:09You know, the longer I wear that bra,
04:11the more I'll deal with the pain,
04:12but you know, you have a choice.
04:14You can take the bra off
04:15or you can live your whole life in pain.
04:17And I think that the bra is a metaphor of, you know,
04:21societal pressure to conform.
