I Love Me

I gave my heart
To people
Who didn't know
What to do with it

I lost myself
Trying to be
Everything
They needed

But I found my way
Back to me
And now I see
What I couldn't see

I love me first
I put me first
No more waiting
No more hurt

I choose my peace
I know my worth
I love me first
I love me first

I love me
I love me
I love me first

You liked me better
When I was giving
When I was bending
Just to stay

But I got tired
Of overloving
Someone
Who couldn't love me the same

Now I don't chase
I don't beg
I don't stay
Where I'm not fed

I love me first
I put me first
No more waiting
No more hurt

I choose my peace
I know my worth
I love me first
I love me first

If I lose you
But keep myself
That's not loss
That's my power

I love me first
That's my rule
I don't shrink
I don't lose

I love me
I love me
I love me first
