Love yourself
Destiny Smith 1997 (Tulsa)
Shut your mouth and open your eyes. You must love yourself enough to stop feeding yourself lies. You know it's the truth, So shut your mouth and open your ears,
If you continue to argue you won't actually hear. There's no need to argue, you know that they're right. So lay down your baggage and quit trying to fight. They do this because they love you , and they know who you can be, and it hurts them when you continue to cause yourself so much misery. No they're not better than you, they've just grown through all the pain, and as soon as you start to love yourself, you'll realize we're all the same. Life can be hard but , it's only as hard as you make it, so quit beating yourself up, take the cycle and break it. You will find peace in loving yourself because if you don't love you, you can't love someone else. You are worth it. There's no such thing as perfect. You have to believe in yourself and know that you deserve it.
