Love Myself

They say you gotta face the past, in order to heal

But I don\'t even know, if any of it\'s real

They say that pain, erases memories

But what is there to take the pain from me

 

The therapist said, between childhood and exes

I never learned what love was

My world was torn between here and Texas 

All because I was hurt, so I hurt.. the one\'s I love 

 

Lord knows that I\'ve tried 

I\'ve prayed and I\'ve cried 

I\'ve read the book, changed my look

To just another version I hate 

I\'ve loved my friends, and my foes

Even loved the ones I don\'t know

In hoping to change my fate

I can forgive everyone else 

But I don\'t know how, to love myself 

I harbor hate, but it\'s for me

Lord can you please show me

How to love myself
