Lyrics

Learn 2 Love Me

Verse 1
Mirror Mirror on the wall, why do I feel least of all
Been down so very long, what?s to hope for?
When being down don?t even hurt no more.

I played the fool trying to remake myself,
Time and time again trying to gain the love of somebody else
But that?s gon? change, gonna rearrange, it?s time to exchange
That old me, for somebody new

Chorus
So, I have got to learn to love me, before I try to love someone else
I?ve gotta learn, to give good love, I?ve got to start loving myself

Verse 2
Countless sleepless nights, years of teardrops stains
All the mental abuse and all the physical pain
So easy to allow, my past take the blame
And let my circumstances remain unchanged

Gonna pray for power to deliver me
From my own shackles that refuse to set me free
So I can flee, be all I can be, I wanna sing in a new key
Cause I do believe!

Chorus
So, I have got to learn to love me, before I try to love someone else
I?ve gotta learn, to give good love, I?ve got to start loving myself

Listen! No more tears?no more wasted years
I gotta be set free, so that I can love me

Dear Rachel,

The song says, you can?t give what you?ve never had
And once I begin to see the beauty in my, unmeasured by others standards
I will find the greatest love of all, which is loving myself
For loving me, is the foundation that all other love stands upon.
