00:00Lizzo... I don't know. I don't know how to describe her, man. She's crazy.
00:06She's got a lot of levels. She's deep. She's very deep, like the ocean.
00:12She's beautiful and talented and smart. I wish I was Lizzo.
00:30You're not going to listen to a Lizzo song and be like, you know what? Lizzo's going
00:46to change my life. No, you're going to change your life. You know what I'm saying? Because
00:50that's how I had to do it. I ain't have no fucking magic wand, you know? You just have
00:53to do it yourself.
01:24This is Sasha Flute.
01:30Puberty didn't make me happy. Sweating a bunch and all of that shit. That sucked. I got teased.
01:38I got made fun of. I was sad. I didn't want to look like myself. I wanted to be somebody
01:43else. That's just a part of it, you know? You look at magazines and you think of things
01:48you want to change. You think of things that you want to fix on your body. You feel like
01:55you don't belong in your friend group. You feel like the ugly one in your friends, the
01:59undesirable one. You feel like boys don't like you. Girls don't like you. You don't
02:03even know what you like. It's hard. We're confused.
02:18Hi.
02:48How do you want to live your life? Do you want to be a
03:16How do you want to live your life? Do you want to be unhappy with yourself every fucking
03:20day? Or do you want to be happy with the body you were given and the person that you are?
03:26It's just accepting yourself.
03:37I was just so afraid. I was like, no one wants to hear what I have to say. No one wants to
03:41just look at me. Making solo music was so hard for me. I would always be in these groups
03:46with my best friends and women that I thought were prettier than me and cooler than me and
03:50more interesting than me. I mean, they are pretty and they are cool and they are interesting,
03:54but I would always put them on this pedestal. They deserved the spotlight more than I did.
04:11Oh, you got a problem? Get a solution.
04:41I use sadness so constructively in the last two years, ever since I've been working on
05:05being emotionally honest, I've used sadness as a tool for gratitude. It's humbling and
05:14I'm grateful that I'm able to feel these emotions because I know that because of this sadness,
05:27I'm going to be able to feel joy.
05:36I got to take my bra off. It hurts. The longer you deal with yourself, the more you accept
05:52it. Just like with anything, just like with that bra. The longer I wear that bra, the
05:59more I deal with the pain, but you have a choice. You can take the bra off or you can
06:04live your whole life in pain and I think that the bra is a metaphor of societal pressure
06:13to conform.
06:34Bye, bitch.
