BEST FOR ME
Breaking Free: Navigating Self-Love Amidst HeartbreakLyrics
I gave you all of me for none of you
I gave everything of myself to you without receiving anything in return
Something that I don't ever do
Acting in a way that is unusual for me
You made me feel like I'm not good enough, yeah
You made me feel inadequate or unworthy
And I don't wanna walk away, that's the last thing that I want, but hey
Though I don't want to leave, it seems like the only option left
I guess right now I have to do whatever's best for me (best for me)
At present, I need to prioritize what's beneficial for myself
I can't hold my breath no more
I can't continue to endure this situation
Tired of your selfish love
Fed up with your self-centered affection
I can't be what you want
I cannot conform to your desires
But I still wanna be loved
Despite that, I still desire to feel loved
Never asked for nothin' else
I never requested anything beyond being loved
I gotta do this for myself
I must prioritize my own well-being in this situation
I believed you loved me, girl
I believed you cared for me deeply, despite my own lack of self-love
When I couldn't even love myself
When I couldn't find love within myself, I thought you loved me
I'm afraid of myself
I'm scared of my own actions or emotions
You taught me how to hate myself
You taught me how to dislike or resent myself
For you, oh, girl, I changed myself
I altered myself for you, oh girl
And chained myself down
I confined or restricted myself because of you
And then I start to blame myself
I began to blame myself for the situation
Back and forth with my head
Struggling internally with your words and their impact on me
Thinkin' 'bout what all you said
Contemplating about everything you've said
I swear it's been a week since I slept
It feels like a long time since I've had proper rest due to distress
'Cause mine don't feel the same as your bed
My thoughts don't bring the same comfort as being in your bed
This ain't love, it's hard to fake it
What we have isn't genuine love; it's challenging to pretend it is
You ain't mine, it's hard to face it
Accepting the difficulty of acknowledging that you're not mine
All of the time I wasted
I spent a lot of time investing in this relationship
I really tried to save us but
Despite my efforts to salvage our relationship, it didn't work
I can't hold my breath no more
I can't continue to endure this situation
Tired of your selfish love
Fed up with your self-centered affection
I can't be what you want
I cannot conform to your desires
But I still wanna be loved
Despite that, I still desire to feel loved
Never asked for nothin' else
I never requested anything beyond being loved
I gotta do this for myself
I must prioritize my own well-being in this situation
I believed you loved me, girl
I believed you cared for me deeply, despite my own lack of self-love
When I couldn't even love myself
When I couldn't find love within myself, I thought you loved me
