#SELFLOVE Lyrics

(Ooh, no)

(Ooh, ooh, woah, ooh)

I need to learn to love myself

Cause I've been trying to learn to love someone else

But I don't want to do that anymore

I'm tired of feeling like this

Sometimes I just want to die

But I'm too afraid to try

Besides I should survive

I've promised all these friends of mine

But I feel alone when I'm alone

And I don't know where to go

But I'm fighting these demons

They say, "You're nothing on your own"

But I know that shit's false

Cause I gave it my all

And I've got them off my back

But they just come right back

I'm trying to love myself above anyone else

Anyone else

I used to want to die, but now I gotta a lot to strive for

I'm afraid to die, but I know people that I'd die for

People wonder why do I break like a xiphoid

Because I'm emotional, get heated like typhoid

Rash and fever, when I gotta leave her

I keep on feeling this pain

And that pain keep on getting deeper

I wanted to keep her

I'd realize that when I'd meet her

Cause she's up high on the meter

But God took her like the Reaper

She ain't dead, but she might as well be, yeah

She's gone for good

All because I had to fucking play her

She was the love of my life

But now, it's time to delete her

I told myself that I wouldn't

Realize now, I don't need her

I need myself

Ohh, woah

Or else I might just melt to the ground

And sell my soul for a pound of

Whatever it is that I need right now

What do I need right now?

I need myself

What else could I do

Besides tell the truth

About you and me to myself?

And be honest about what I'm doing wrong

I need to love myself above anyone else

Above anyone else

Cause you tell me things that you want me to be

But I can't do those things because of you

Cause you won't let me jump off the top of a rooftop

Cause you fear that I will flop

We could fly higher than the buildings

You could do anything, cause you have no ceilings

If you're wondering who I'm talking to

I'm talking to myself, cause I have a feeling

That I might succeed more than I thought I could

That if I believe in myself maybe that would

Be enough that I need to set myself free

Open your mind, there's more you need to see

Everyone lives, and I know that you know what I mean

I hope that you know what I mean

I hope that you grow and you find your relief

I'm trying to teach y'all that you're all

That you're ever gonna need
