Love Yourself

[Verse 1:]
I remember back when we were kids, yeah
You used to show me what believin' is, yeah
You used to tell me everything would be alright
As long I stayed focused things change from the inside
So tell me why when I see you now
You're the one that doesn't believe it now
I reach for your hand and your sleeve pulls up
I can see all the cuts and the pain that you've done
It's like, "what the fuck happened?" man, fuck rappin'
I wish we could go back to the skatepark and talk it out
We never talk about, just walk around, those issues like
If you don't acknowledge it, then it'll pass through
Try to talk to you eye to eye, break it down
Because when you break the skin it breaks my heart it's like
I know you haven't felt right in a long time
But I just wanna know what's up

[Pre-Chorus:]
See I like you and I don't like no one
Cause everybody tries to be something they're not
We get caught up in the drama of what's hot, just stop
I've been so caught up in my life, didn't see what's going on
And now I know, some of us just can't do this life alone, homie

[Chorus:]
I know you hate the way you look so much
I just wish that you would love yourself
And I know that you're still holding on
And I just wish that you would love yourself

[Verse 2:]
The conversation doesn't change on the day to day
Like "how you been, how you doin'?" Okay
The irony is you just lie to yourself
And while you contemplate death we're all dying to help
It's like I just wish you had a chance to see this
Everything's beautiful why would you leave this?
Beneath this veil of struggle it's all hope
And you swear there's not a way out and homie I know so please
Take the stars to the grave but not now
A lot of us try to fly and get shot down
It's not the end of the world tonight, friend
Well put the wings together and fly again
You don't know my demons, we all got 'em
And I struggle with depression too, no more or less than you
I'm right here next to you so just talk
Because I don't wanna lose you yet, see

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Cause I like you and I don't like no one
Cause everybody's tryna to be something they're not and get caught
But you you said "fuck it let 'em talk"
You got so caught up in that life, didn't see where you went wrong
And now I know, some of us just can't do this life alone, homie

[Chorus:]
I know you hate the way you look so much
I just wish that you would love yourself
And I know that you're still holding on
And I just wish that you would love yourself

[Verse 3:]
Before you pull the trigger just think twice
You'll put a bigger hole in the people you leave behind
You can't rewrite that history, true
But you can learn to see past it
Forget the drugs, the cuts, the pain, the loss
And find the light inside of you, you're lost
I know that everything will be alright
As long as you stay focused, things change from the inside

[Outro:]
I know you hate the way you look so much
I just wish that you would love yourself
And I know that you're still holding on
And I just wish that you would love yourself
I know you hate the way you look so much
I just wish that you would love yourself
And I know that you're still holding on
And I just wish that you would love yourself
