Love Yourself vs F*CK Yourself
Kelly Kiara Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

For all the times that you rained on my parade
And all the clubs you get in using my name
You think you broke my heart
Oh girl, for goodness sake
You think I'm crying
Oh my oh, well I ain't

Well I didn't wanna write a song
'Cause I didn't want anyone thinking I still care, I don't
But, you still hit my phone up
Now baby I been moving on
And I think it should be somethin'
I don't wanna hold back
Maybe you should know that
My mama don't like you and she like's everyone
And I never like to admit that I was wrong
I've been so caught up in my job
Didn't see what's going on
But now I know
I'm better sleeping on my own

'Cause if you like the way you look that much
Oh maybe you should go and love yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin'
You should go and love yourself

All the times that you had to check my phone
The failed attempts to quit that shit that you smoke
Always stumbling in with makeup on your shirt
You think I don't know that you still talk to her
And you told me you were movin on
You just don't want anyone thinking you still care but
Ypu still keep them screenshots
And I guess she just loved you more





All your boys told me how you wanted something real but I guess I wasn't good enough
My daddy gon' kill you when he hears this song
He knows that you lied to me, he's glad to see you gone
You're just so messed up in your mind, you cannot see what's inside mine
But now I know, I'm better sleeping on my own
No I don't like, the way, you played me out
Maybe you can go and fuck yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin on to something

Baby you can go and fuck yourself
Hmmm hmn hmn hmmmn hmnn
For all the times that you made me feel small
I fell in love now I fear nothin' at all

I never felt so low and I was vulnerable
Was I a fool to let you break down my walls?
Cause if you like the way you look that much
Then maybe you should go and love yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin'
You should go and love yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin'
You should go and love yourself

Overall Meaning

"Love Yourself vs F*CK Yourself" by Kelly Kiara is a song about a past relationship that the singer has moved on from. She addresses her ex-partner, who mistreated her and acted selfishly, causing her pain. The lyrics speak to the idea that the singer now realizes that she deserves better than how she was treated, and that she has come out stronger on the other side. The first verse addresses the ex-partner, who is assumed to have cheated on the singer, used her for their own gain, and broken her heart. The second verse shows the singer's growth, as she acknowledges that she had been too caught up in her work to notice the red flags in the relationship. However, she has moved on and is now confident in herself and her ability to be alone.


The chorus of the song is the most notable part as it repeats the lines "Cause if you like the way you look that much, oh baby, you should go and love yourself." This lyric is a call for the ex-partner to take a step back and learn to love themselves, as their actions towards the singer were not acceptable. The song ends with the repetition of this line, with the addition of "and if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin', you should go and love yourself." With this, the singer makes it clear that she has moved on and that the ex-partner should do the same, leaving the past behind to focus on self-love.
