Self-Lovin
The Wldlfe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Late night all alone
Starin′ at my phone
Waitin' for somebody new to call
And I feel less blue
When I′m without you
Yeah, I'm barely missing you at all

I need a break
Before I break
Is it all a waste
'Cause I don′t wanna wait?

Gonna give myself some self-lovin′
'Cause lately I′ve been giving me nothin'
Is it wrong for me to want something?
Oh, gonna give myself some
Gonna give myself some
Self-lovin′

Take my, take my doubt
Watch me cash it out
'Cause I′ve got no more tears left to cry

And it feels so good
In my neighborhood
'Cause I'm worried about myself and I

I need a break
Before I break
Is it all a waste
′Cause I don′t wanna wait?

Gonna give myself some self-lovin'
′Cause lately I've been giving me nothin′
Is it wrong for me to want something?
Oh, gonna give myself some
Gonna give myself some
Self-lovin'
Self-lovin′
Self-lovin', yeah
Gonna give myself some
Self-lovin'
Self-lovin′
Self-lovin′, yeah
Gonna give myself some
Self-lovin'

Lost my head dreaming of how it′s supposed to be
Am I alright or is this just a fever dream?
Spent too much time on you, not enough time on me
Is it a crime for me to want some self-lovin'?
Lost my head dreaming of how it′s supposed to be
Am I alright or is this just a fever dream?
Figured it all out while listening to "Seven Rings"
I do what I want

Gonna give myself some self-lovin'
′Cause lately I've been giving me nothin'
Is it wrong for me to want something?
Oh, gonna give myself some
Gonna give myself some
Self-lovin′
Self-lovin′

'Cause lately I′ve been givin' me nothin′
Is it wrong for me to want something?
Oh, gonna give myself some
Gonna give myself some
Self-lovin'
Self-lovin′
Self-lovin', yeah
Gonna give myself some
Self-lovin'
Self-lovin′
Self-lovin′, yeah




Gonna give myself some
Self-lovin'
