[Verse 1]
Is the bathroom mirror all steamed up?
Or did I just forget who I was?
'Cause my last man, he painted me out to be someone I hate on
Got my self-worth all messed up
[Pre-Chorus]
Think I need to do a self-portrait
Put the pen to the page
Remind me what he missed
I'ma draw it like my heart didn't break
Like I'm bad, like I'm brave
Remind me I'm that bitch
[Chorus]
I'm a savage, they should hang this up in Paris
This shit lookin' like magic, oh
Think I need to do a self-portrait
Love myself for a change
Remind me what he missed
[Verse 2]
Me in that dress, ten out of ten, how could I doubt myself?
Don't you remember when you couldn't control yourself?
So much has changed since then, can't even call you a friend
Oh, I'ma say it again
You're the last man, who's painting me out to be something I'm not
Got my self-worth all messed up
[Pre-Chorus]
Think I need to do a self-portrait
Put the pen to the page
Remind me what he missed
I'ma draw it like my heart didn't break
Like I'm bad, like I'm brave
Remind me I'm that bitch
[Chorus]
I'm a savage, they should hang this up in Paris
This shit lookin' like magic, oh
Think I need to do a self-portrait
Love myself for a change
Remind me what he missed
[Bridge]
Oh
You're gonna miss this
Yeah, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Think I need to do a self-portrait
Put the pen to the page
Remind me what he missed
I'ma draw it like my heart didn't break
Like I'm bad, like I'm brave
Remind me I'm that bitch
[Chorus]
I'm a savage, they should hang this up in Paris
This shit lookin' like magic, oh
Think I need to do a self-portrait
Love myself for a change
Remind me what he missed

I really love it because of the sentiment. It’s an anthem but it has a heartfelt end to it, so you can get the feels. Self-love moments are the most important. That’s where I am right now mentally.
