Love Myself - Hendersin

Why do I do this, every single time?

Already knew this, that I was out my mind

And the way that I view this, you’d think I was blind

Cause i just say screw this, dammit I’ll be fine

And I make an exception, and I pay the cost

Same direction, I still feel lost

The intersection, that I need to cross

Need to do some reflection, on pain I’ve caused

A whole lot of baggage, but really I don’t claim it

Thoughts running wild, I wish that I could tame it

Emotion’s rapid fire, I’m wishing I could aim it

And you say you’re doing better, I’m wishing I could same it

Cause I gotta get on track like a G.I., but my burdens always follow me like a

P.I

Looking at my ex, and you hoping you see why

But honestly I’ve been like this, since knee-high

Wake up and I start running, running to lose the past

But the, the thing about it, is it moves way too fast

And I don’t, don’t wanna leave you, I don’t want no one else

But if, but if I love you, first I should love myself

Why do you love me?

I need to know

Inside it gets ugly, but I wanna grow

The second you hug me, I let go

Guess I got lucky, cause I don’t show

All the emotions, that I feel

Like I’m stuck in ocean, but I just deal

A sip of the potion, and life gets real

I’ve been praying and hoping, that I can heal

I don’t want to ever let you down, like that Nate guy

Wish I was type of person, that could take my

Feelings and just get them off my chest like a weight, why?

Do I always wait until the second I break, try

Wait like 30 days, that’s the point of no return

Usher in a new way, or let it burn

Ashes to ashes, someone get a urn

This is my battle, its not your concern

Wake up and I start running, running to lose the past

But the, the thing about it, is it moves way too fast

And I don’t, don’t wanna leave you, I don’t want no one else

But if, but if I love you, first I should love myself
