[Intro]
Love Yourself
Poodieville
Love Yourself
[Verse 1]
Let me tell you about Holly
See, Holly self-conscious 'bout her body
And ever since a child she's been overweight
Looks into the mirror
Her heart fills with so much hate
At school she's an outcast
Back of the class
She finds peace in her own world
Waiting for the bullies that'll ridicule her
Ain't no telling what that shit is really doing to her
She just trying to find her way, man
Every night she looked at God and say a prayer man
'Cause she just want to be a center fold
Just like those girls on the TV and on those videos
She don't understand it
She stopped eating and now she looking anorexic
Livin' reckless
Skipping breakfast
She got a deathwish
Her momma tried to tell her different
She don't respect it
She's on a mission
And it's deadly vicious
Killing her body
Holly can't see that the clock is ticking, damn
More love it, don't be fucking with your health
Bigger or skinny girl you gotta love yourself
And that's some real shit
[Verse 2]
So let me tell you about Christine
See, Christine she got low self-esteem
So she let a nigga cheat on her, beat on her
Hoping one day, put a ring on her
Yeah right
She fucked around and had his child
And he don't even claim him
She don't even blame him
He just come over and fuck
And leave her crying naked
Her world is raining
But to him, this shit is entertaining
She don't understand it
Start popping pills
Now this shit became a habit
She's an addict
This shit is tragic
She's just a victim
Brainwashed by no good dog ass niggas
She's on a mission
And it's deadly vicious
Killing her body, nah
She can't see that the clock is ticking, damn
More love it, don't be fucking with your health
He don't love ya 'cause you never loved yourself
That's some real shit
