Kered - #SELFLOVE

(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
#SelfLove
