I Love Myself (feat. Macklemore)

The best thing I could ever do for me is love myself

I was sitting on the bed, Atlanta, Georgia

All alone in my emotions, full of fear

Gotta protect this precious life, I got the future by my side

Be the last time that I cry these tears again, hey

No more drama, no more pain

No drama, no drama, no pain

I'm done making same mistakes, ayy

It's alright, I been to the bottom, and I've seen the end

Wanna forever be together 'til the end

And I found the problem, it starts with me

I figured out now what I want, got what I need

(Ladies, help me sing it out now)

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

I'm never gon' fall 'cause I love myself

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

And I can have it all 'cause I love myself

Check it, now

If loving myself's a job, am I doing it?

Art's a weapon, a resistance, am I using it?

I got two girls, how do I get through to them?

Don't want the 'Gram telling my daughters what beauty is, nah

I ain't raising princesses, I'm raising warriors

Self-love is a bite, keep some extra in the holster

My children, I'm trying to teach them to love themselves

But I can't expect it if I haven't accepted myself

See, if Dad isn't sober, and Dad isn't honest

And Dad can't control it, and Dad got these problems

If Dad is so selfish, and Dad is lying to mama

Then that is gonna have an impact on Dad's daughters

If I'm not right with me, how can I pass it on?

I got a pact today, I know, and I can't knock it off

And if I'm blinded by the light, then I can't walk with God

Don't wanna realize later He was with me all along

Loving me, being free, bringing peace, leave these wings

Tryna fly to my peak, I reside eye to eye

The divine in my reach as I strive and I seek

Live light, proceed, love me for me

At ease

It's alright, I been to the bottom, and I've seen the end

Wanna forever be together 'til the end

And I found the problem, it starts with me

I figured out now what I want, got what I need

(Ladies, help me sing it out now)

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

I'm never gon' fall 'cause I love myself

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

And I can have it all 'cause I love myself

I'm not tripping, it's not fate

No, I'm not selfish, nope

No more holding back on me, I'm feeling free

Only happy tears I'll cry, I swear, this time, I'll get it right

It's the best thing God could ever do for me, hey

No more drama, no more pain

No drama, no drama, no pain

I'm done making same mistakes, ayy

It's alright, I been to the bottom, and I've seen the end

Wanna forever be together 'til the end

And I found the problem, it starts with me

I figured out now what I want, got what I need

(Ladies, help me sing it out now)

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

I'm never gon' fall 'cause I love myself

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

And I can have it all 'cause I love myself

Playing hopscotch with ya life

Couple heartbreaks 'til you get it right

Sometimes, you gotta fall

Sometimes, you lose it all

That's when you get it right

Taking shortcuts get ya cut short

Never ever settle when you know your worth

You gotta free your soul, you gotta take control

That's how I got it right

It's alright, I been to the bottom, and I've seen the end

Wanna forever be together 'til the end

And I found the problem

It starts with me

I figured out now what I want, got what I need

(Ladies, help me sing it out now)

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

I'm never gon' fall 'cause I love myself

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

And I can have it all 'cause I love myself

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

I'm never gon' fall 'cause I love myself

Damn right, yeah, I love myself

And I can have it all 'cause I love myself
