Self Love

Your past says not to trust him

you’ve seen a halo under horns

but u don’t see the world how you used to

you embrace the flower with its thorns

but when loneliness starts to creep in

and everyone close seems foreign

you just look into the mirror for some company

and smile thru the jade and the scorn

Your friends told you not to love him

your daddy says you been warned

but you don’t see colors how they do

you say black the new orange

but if a cold front comes in today

how are you gonna stay warm

when you can’t touch him when u need to

so you just wrap your arms and hug your-self love

you love him, ’cause you got self love

he loves you, ’cause you got self love

they fear for you, ’cause they ain’t got self love

love your-self, love your-self love

you don’t need no help love

’cause you got self-love-your-self love
