gonna love myself Lyrics

I've been running in circles

I've been calling out your name

Trying to figure out a reason

But they turn out to be lame

Don't know why I've been mourning

All these years I've laid to waste

When I could have searched for someone

And wash away the guilt that I had braced

So I'm leaving it all behind

I'm gonna start afresh

Look for the brighter things in my life

And move on from this mess

I'm gonna try my best

Let go of the guilt in my chest

I'm gonna love

Oh, I'm gonna love myself

I've been looking for reasons

But they were never there

You kept playing with my emotions

While I kept drowning in my tears

Don't know why I tried to make up

For the draining layers of trust

When the love you professed so dearly

It was just a mask disguising your lust

So I'm leaving it all behind

I'm gonna start afresh

Look for the brighter things in my life

And move on from this mess

I'm gonna try my best

Let go of the guilt in my chest

I'm gonna love

Oh, I'm gonna love myself
