Love Yourself

Let the doubt fossilize
You, fall from the lies that you tell yourself
Erase all the footprints you left cemented neighboring resurrection
Say bye to the bygones the gray can be to infectious
Back of my mamas hand check my temp for a fever
She, knows that I'm heating up cuz I remained a believer
Remorseful talks in the mirror prayers taken over by pleases
I struck contentment in my dreams but I knew I couldn't keep it
Bull by the horns, struck by the thorn while we arose
Blood blends in with the pedals, pedals drag on the street from my foot piercing through the floor
Can't really settle for less when you are destined for mo
You used to brace for the impact that never came
You spent time clutching at straws while the walls was caving
Sane days turning to insane days
New mileage on the car your exhausting, on a walk tryna change ways
The book is in bold, half of the battle is reading the other is tryna get yourself to believe it
Hostile homes you fail to leave em, love yourself you deserve more than the devils treason
Go head and build a beacon or be it, behold the light
See the beckoning signs are yours for keeping
No moving backwards you better manage your tenet although I know it can feel uneven sometimes
You just gotta
Love yourself, Love yourself
I strayed too far away from that
Can't waste the water I need that for myself
Love yourself, love yourself
I strayed too far away from that
I cannot not call you when I need to call myself
Therapy sessions carving a path
Cracks in the cement filled with grandmothers cigarette ashes
Papa was rocking the purp and gold, talks about Kob over eruption in staples when he went to the basket
Doorbell screams at sevenam
Ruth cradles a winchell's box in a white shirt and a denim jacket
Tryna push past the past, surrendering pace putting less over faith
All in on patience Wiping the tears from the spilled milk still haven't
Fully forgiven myself for the deviation Duplicated mistakes
Corrosive cycles in your rear view need to be called
Into question before discovering true elevation
Forced isolation
Don't let my ignorance be the bearer of my reputation
I don't wanna reach out for air just to feel deflated
Breathe breathe breathe
Couldn't even see in myself when I needed myself
I know I need to let go of this I'm deceiving myself
Nobody checking in losing control of the dose, two
Roads to go down if my brakes give out I'll be two tired
I'll be too tired
Flipping and rollin the speed had backfired
But we made it out alive so you just gotta
Love yourself, love yourself
You strayed too far away from that
Can't waste the water you keep that for yourself
Love yourself, love yourself
Don't forget to wake your bloom
Make sure that you call on yourself
You strayed too far away from that
Can't waste the water you keep that for yourself
Love yourself, love yourself
Don't forget to wake your bloom
Make sure that you call on yourself
