Mistreating me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Keep on pressuring me to do more and do more
don't move on unless you can see that
I'm all that it ain't easy waking up early
to stay up late I know God won't put more on me on me
than I can take and I know I know!
Chorus:
Yes I knooooooooooow that I must take care of me
(You better love you say love yourself first)
And I been told that I can't put you before me
You better love you better love yourself first
No I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I have decided to love myself
And no I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I'm not if you don't love you can't love nobody else!
I do love you but
Sometime I feel I feel
that this one thing so so unfair (so unfair)
You don't even know that me when you down so
I pray everyday you start loving me
(Chorus)
You can't love nobody before you love yourself first You got to love youreslf
And I know I know
(Chorus)
No I'm not gone keep on mistreating me I have decided to love myself and no I'm not gone keep on mistreating me I'm not if you don't love you can't love nobody else!
Break it down now
tie it down
Mistreating me 7x
love yourself
