Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanted to believe you
But I was unsure so I moved slow up the ladder
I was careful but it didn't matter
'Cause you got what you wanted, a feeling
When I said you could hold me and feel lucky
And we basked in our mutual adoring
And I don't show this side of me to no one
[Verse 2]
Maybe you do this kinda thing all the time
How could you change so suddenly?
How could you desire me
Then have no desire left for me?
[Verse 3]
(Love yourself)
Please (Love yourself)
Say to me what you want, what you need
(Love yourself)
Please (Love yourself)
Explain yourself
[Verse 4]
Yo, the story of never-ending empty bottles and ashtrays
Overdosin' on lies prescribed to me by my cellmate
So to speak, do you even notice me?
Almost had control of me, I let you into my galaxy
How our world so obsolete? Nothing ever feels complete
A victim of disbelief, honest is what you've never been
Why the ones that's close to me? Why has God done chosen me?
Money doesn't grow on trees, my riches, my soul at peace
[Verse 5]
I wanted to believe you, I wanted to keep you
Forgive me if that's selfish, I'm thinkin' of me too
Had a shitty deck of cards and I dealt with it calm
Shoulda knew this shit would fade like the tats in your palm
You gotta laugh, am I your fool 'cause I fell for your charm?
And those beautiful eyes, you're a beautiful liar
And a fake in disguise, show your colors with pride
It's approaching that time, let us all see your light
Let us all see your light
[Verse 6]
Made me wait (Love yourself)
A fire brewin' in my heart today
(Love yourself) And it sounds like
Say to me what you want, what you need
(Love yourself) Abracadabra, yeah, you got me
The trick stuff, I'll never close my eyes again
Please (Love yourself)
Explain yourself
[Verse 7]
(Love yourself)
(Love yourself)
(Love yourself)
