Enemy Lyrics

I'm supposed to love my enemies

I'm supposed to treat them as myself

I'm supposed to love them more than me

Extend my hand when they need help

But Lord, I'm sorry, cause though I believe

I don't know who you made me to be

I'm supposed to turn the other cheek

Forgive the ones who made my heart bleed

But don't nobody hurt me like me

Don't nobody hurt me like me

Tell me

How can I love 'em when

When I'm the enemy

Am I to love myself or whoever I'm meant to be

I'm under fire 24-7, I am mentally

Walking a wire between order and rule of entropy

How am I to love myself?

I have a tendency

To overcomplicate everything that I could ever think

I tear myself to shreds whenever I try to self critique

Man, I'm so bitter about who I know I will never be

How am I to love myself?

Why can't I just accept it?

I'm beautifully created

So much time asking questions

Now it's just time that's wasted

Obsessively try to perfect every step

I'm stressed over lies that I tell myself

But don't nobody hurt me like me

Don't nobody hurt me like me

Tell me

How can I love 'em when

When I'm the enemy

Am I to love myself or whoever I'm meant to be?

I'm under fire 24-7, I am mentally

Walking a wire between order and rule of entropy

How am I to love myself?

I have a tendency

To overcomplicate everything that I could ever think

I tear myself to shreds whenever I try to self critique

Man, I'm so bitter about who I know I will never be

How am I to love myself?

I'm tired of everything

I'm growing tired of being chronically upset with me

It's growing old, perfectionism is preventing me

From having some joy and bringing out the very best in me

So how can I love myself and who I'm meant to be

How can I love myself and my identity

How can I love myself and find serenity

How can I love, how can I love, how can I love myself

When I'm the enemy

Am I to love myself or whoever I'm meant to be?

I'm under fire 24-7, I am mentally

Walking a wire between order and rule of entropy

How am I to love myself?

I have a tendency

To overcomplicate everything that I could ever think

I tear myself to shreds whenever I try to self critique

Man, I'm so bitter about who I know I will never be

How am I to love myself?
