Love Yourself

Little sister
Spends her whole
Life searching
For the man who can
Touch her heart
But the lover that she’s
With ain’t working
I hate to see her cry
Why can’t she realize
She deserves a better situation
Then a fist and a kiss goodnight
I wish she’d take another’s invitation
To see that real love, is more than
Being tough
Sister, don’t be afraid to let him go
You got to love yourself
If you want somebody else to love you
You’ve got to love yourself
You’ve got to reach inside
If you’re ever gonna find someone
To love you
You got to love yourself
I don’t wanna preach the bible
I just wanna reach the truth
A loverman shouldn’t be your rival
Only to raise a hand
Never to understand
There’s a voice inside every person
That can speak when
The heart is numb
You’ve got to scream
Before the body worsens
You’re just a step away
From being free of pain
Sister, don’t be afraid to let him go
You got to love yourself
If you want somebody
Else to love you
You got to love yourself
You’ve got to reach inside
If you’re ever gonna find
Someone to love you
You got to love yourself
You got to love yourself
If you want somebody
Else to love you
You got to love yourself
You’ve got to reach inside
If you’re ever gonna find
Someone to love you
You got to love yourself
