K-Rino - Love Yourself lyrics

[Verse 1: K-Rino] Live, learn and move ahead because we've all been burned There's only so much you can give and not receive in return Don't let it stress you out, view it as a bump in the road Because it'll have you looking around the house looking for something to load I know the whole situation girl, I know what he done Ran game, lied and left you one deep with a son You gave him everything and got nothing and that's a shame Now looking at your own child's face brings back pain Because when you see him, you see the man that did you so wrong You get hard, harder to feel like you can raise him alone And I know you can, hell you've been doing it this long But packing all the weight for years makes it hard to be strong You better take a little time out to gather yourself When no laughter is felt just all tears that's bad for your health Don't get caught up in emotion, learn to hover above You stop loving yourself, you won't be there for others to love [Chorus: K-Rino & Ashlei] If you don't love you You can't love no one else How can you love someone If you don't love yourself? [Verse 2 K-Rino] This fellow pumped up your head with the words that he said Not even 24 hours later he had you in bed Said it was you and him forever and that he was your man To infatuated to understand his ultimate plan Now you done broke ties with family and got with him fast He educated you on street hustles to bring in cash You was sceptical at first but he sold you a dream He hit you with the "if you loved me, you would do it" routine Now you out there on the streets and stripping up in the club Selling your body and d** and this supposed to be love? You looked for it up in the wrong place and went with the flow Now you stay high because your self esteem is low And every day you seem to fall off just a little bit more Your appearance ain't even the same as it was before You gave your heart to a man who didn't have one of his own And when he found somebody new to use he left you alone [Chorus: K-Rino & Ashlei] [Verse 3: K-Rino] Now you grew up in a household that wasn't too stable Used to dream about leaving but you just wasn't able A dysfunctional family, momma was rarely around With an abusive father peace of mind could rarely be found It's real had being raised up in a house full of fools Somehow you never let that hold you back from going to school Momma got a drug problem but she's in denial And your own father molested you since you was a child You done lost your innocence at a real young age Lost faith in all men and feeling pent up rage Depressed and suicidal, feeling heartless and cold Blaming yourself for something that you couldn't control But don't ever feel like there's nothing that you could do You can have a brand new life but it starts with you You could still make a good man a wonderful wife Don't let life take you over just take over your life [Chorus: K-Rino & Ashlei] [Outro: Ashlei] *Ashlei singing Chorus to fade*
