I’m feeling love for me
That’s what’s coming through
I got love for me
Have you got love for you?
 
I look back on my journey
And all I’ve come through
And love for me
Is all I can come to.
 
I’m resilient
If nothing else
Have adapted many times
And there’s a strength in self.
 
I’m giving love to me
That’s been long overdue
I got love for me
Have you got love for you?
 
My heart was waiting on love
While it seems love had started hating on me
So I’m giving love to myself
That didn’t come for me.
 
The love I deserve
The love you deserve too
Don’t be waiting on others
When they ain’t waiting on you.
 
We learn from our defeats
We rise each time we fall
We learn from our mistakes 
And new breaks call.
 
Understand we deserve better
And better is what we’ll get
If they feel they can treat you bad
Then there’s better treatment to get.
 
Put your heart out?
Someone crush it for their pleasure?
Hell no baby!
We deserve much better.
 
But if we deserve better yet
We got to change our mindset
For the disrespect we get
Is a result of the disrespect we let. 

I’m giving love to myself
You giving love to you?
Don’t be waiting on someone else
To give you the love you are due.
 
You give that love to yourself
And find someone who thinks more of you
And eventually the love you give yourself
Someone will give you more of too.
 
We ain’t in no panic
We ain’t in no rush
And if they don’t give
Well, then we won’t push.
 
You give that love to yourself
Be thankful for what you got
For there are folks out there
Remaining happy without a lot.
 
Give that love to yourself
And share it with each other
Can’t give it to the one you love
Give it to your sisters and your brothers.
 
You give that love to yourself
Knowing better is what you’re due
And the love that you give
Will soon come back to you.
 
I got love for me
Have you got love for you?
I’m giving love to me
You give that love to you.
