Mila Jam:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Today\u2019s media bombards us with negative images and ideas. I wanted to make a song that would force everyone to take a deeper look into our individual worlds, and to recognize the beauty that we each offer to the world.\u00a0We all wear our plastic smiles out in the world while inside, we hide our true fears and loathing and feelings of inadequacy. Faces is about staring boldly into that mirror and realizing that we do belong, we are enough, and someone will love us for who we really are.”<\/p>\n
