Loving Yourself
Embrace Your Worth: A Journey of Self-Love by Kevin Hawkins
Lyrics
Why did I ever let you in my life
Expressing regret about letting someone into their life.
I should’ve said no but I didn’t
Acknowledging the missed opportunity to say no.
Over and over and over I let you slip and slide
Repeatedly allowing the person to influence or affect them.
Till you ran past me
Metaphorically describing the person surpassing or leaving them behind.
Oh yes you did
Affirming the reality of the person moving on.
Never ever will I let that happen again
Determined not to repeat the mistake of letting someone in.
Noo nooooo
Emphatic refusal or rejection of the previous experience.
You can guarantee it
Confidently stating the commitment to change.
Don’t let someone’s physical attraction
Warning against prioritizing physical attraction over self-love.
Keep you from loving yourself
Reiterating the importance of self-love over external attraction.
Keep you from loving yourself
Repetition for emphasis on not letting physical attraction hinder self-love.
Don’t let someone’s physical attraction
Cautioning against compromising personal growth for physical attraction.
Keep you from being your best
Emphasizing the need to be the best version of oneself.
Keep you from being your best
Repeating the importance of striving for personal excellence.
You were my most prized possession
Affirming the significant value of the person in the past.
My most awarded yes you were now
Highlighting the person's previous status as a prized possession.
But even a trophy will get tarnished over time it will collect dust
Acknowledging that even valuable things can deteriorate over time.
And I’ll dust you off
Expressing the intention to revive and value the relationship.
Never ever will I be your runner up again
Promising not to settle for a secondary position in the relationship.
Noooo I’m only gonna be first prize
Asserting the desire to be the top priority in the relationship.
You can bet yourself you can guarantee it
Confidently stating the commitment to being the first choice.
Don’t let someone’s physical attraction
Reiterating the warning against letting physical attraction overshadow self-love.
Keep you from loving yourself
Emphasizing the importance of self-love over external attraction.
Keep you from loving yourself
Repetition for emphasis on not letting physical attraction hinder self-love.
Don’t let someone’s physical attraction
Cautioning against compromising personal growth for physical attraction.
Keep you from being your best
Emphasizing the need to be the best version of oneself.
Keep you from being your best
Repeating the importance of striving for personal excellence.
Oooooooooooooooo
Expressive vocalization, possibly conveying emotion or intensity.
Oooooooooooooooo
