Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You should come on over, I’ll throw
Yeah I know, feel like déjà vu
Everything you’ve been saying not true
I don’t live in the past I grew
Had to say ‘no’ to everything on throw
Tryna please you with everything I do
If I could take it all back then I would
Yeah, should’ve known better I
Didn’t understand this whole letters
Not this time, hell no I won’t let her (ayee)
A rose couldn’t find you, you should praise yourself you know
Fuck, you was not serious when you take yourself you know
Don’t think that you should ever change yourself
Opinions don’t matter, you should rate yourself
Don’t break yourself, embrace yourself
You can do much better you can trust yourself (ohhh)
Who on Earth gon’ love you, if you don’t love yourself
Has got to be you, it can’t be no one else
Has got to be you, has got to be you
(Yeah)
You can’t love yourself, then girl I gotta go
How you not tryna grow?
I’m tryna run and, you tryna slow
I love your brain and, you love the smoke
I don’t complain and, I ain’t got no hope
You never change, you ain’t never home
You never like going out to be honest you not even sure
Always worry about there is never yours
You’ve been acting like your face, need a cure
Pretty girls be the most insecure (pretty girls pretty girls)
How many times I gotta tell you that, “you’re perfect”
You here acting like your worthless
Heard it, but you do that on purpose
That’s okay, I can make all your fears go away
Crying every now say you feel so ‘changed’
Gotta wait for you self esteem
Don’t waste no time
You always hit me up so late
Won’t stay coz you know your love so fake yeah
Looking for validation
Gon’ cry all night (ayee)
You can do much better you can trust yourself (ohhh)
Who on Earth gon’ love you, if you don’t love yourself
Has got to be you, it can’t be no one else
Has got to be you, has got to be you
Has got to be you, has got to be you
Has got to be you, has got to be you
Has got to be you, has got to be you
Has got to be you, has got to be you
In Elizée's song "Love Yourself," he talks about the importance of self-love and acceptance. He starts by addressing someone who told him to "say brand new me" and invites them to come over, but he feels like it's déjà vu because everything they say is not true. He emphasizes that he doesn't live in the past and has grown from it, saying "if I could take it all back then I would." He also highlights how he tried to please this person but now understands he shouldn't have. Elizée then shifts his attention to the listener and tells them that they should praise themselves because no one else will love them if they don't love themselves first. He suggests that they can do better and should trust themselves, stating that they need to embrace themselves and not break themselves.
The chorus is a powerful reminder that the person most responsible for loving yourself is yourself. If you can’t love yourself, then it’s time to go, and if you don't love yourself then no one else will. Elizée encourages listeners to trust themselves and embrace who they are. He addresses the insecurities and validation-seeking behavior that can come from not loving yourself and reminds us that self-worth is important.
