Unlock Your Worth: Embracing Self-Love Amidst Relationship Struggles
Lyrics
What's the price that you pay for having a good heart?
Questioning the cost of having a good heart and the challenges it brings.
It's like people picking up trash, walking past you, a piece of art
Metaphorically describing the lack of appreciation, comparing oneself to overlooked art.
You'd be waiting in these halls, you're giving life to all these walls
Waiting and investing in relationships, giving life to surroundings, but unnoticed.
But no one comes close and checks how much you even cost
Expressing the loneliness of being undervalued, with no one acknowledging the effort.
How much time do you waste having a pure soul?
Raising the question of the time wasted due to maintaining a pure soul.
It's been minutes and hours and days of knowing you're whole
Reflecting on the substantial time spent knowing oneself completely.
Without anyone around and when you try to open up
Describing solitude when attempting to open up emotionally.
You let your guard down and get dumped
Highlighting the vulnerability and disappointment when letting one's guard down.
And then you try to be like somebody else
Attempting to change oneself to fit societal expectations.
Because you think you need to change something 'bout yourself
Questioning the need for self-change, especially for someone undeserving.
But baby he ain't even what you deserve
Asserting that a particular person is not deserving of the speaker's affection.
You need to be centre of your own universe
Encouraging self-centric focus as a priority in life.
You better let that man go
Repetition emphasizing the necessity to let go of an undeserving person.
You better let that man go
-You better let that man go
-You better let that man go
-How much life do you lose holding unto dead bonds?
Questioning the value of holding onto unproductive relationships.
Forcing the connections, acting like they weren't lost time ago
Acknowledging the lost connections and the need to release them.
Time to let go, time heals all wounds
Advocating for letting go, with the belief that time heals emotional wounds.
Girl, you don't even wanna be with him
Advising against being with someone undesirable.
You don't need to be the one who is
Empowering the listener to avoid being in a one-sided relationship.
Giving love out you ain't never getting back
Warning against giving love without receiving it in return.
From someone who thinks they're all that
Criticizing those who think highly of themselves without reciprocating love.
Know your value and just fall back
Encouraging self-awareness and the realization of personal value.
'Cause it's better to be by yourself than thinking you gotta stay
Suggesting that being alone is better than staying in an unsatisfying relationship.
And then you try to be like somebody else
Reiteration of the theme of changing oneself for undeserving individuals.
Because you think you need to change something 'bout yourself
Highlighting the misguided belief that self-change is necessary.
But baby he ain't even what you deserve
Reiterating that the undeserving person does not merit the listener's affection.
You need to be the centre of your own universe
Stressing the importance of being the center of one's own universe.
You better let that man go
Final emphasis on the necessity to let go of an unworthy individual.
