Mistreating Me

(album: A Change Is Gonna Come - 2005)

Keep on pressuring me

To do more and do more
Don't move on unless you can see that
I'm all that
It ain't easy waking up early
To stay up late
I know God won't put more
on me on me
than I can take

and I know I know

Yes I know that I
I must take care of me
(You better love you say you love yourself first)
And I've been told that I
I can't put you above me
(You better love you better love yourself first)

No I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I have decided to love myself
and no I'm not gon' keep on mistreating me
I'm not if you don't love you can't love nobody else

I do love you

But sometimes
I feel (I feel)
Like this one things so so unfair (so unfair)
You don't even noticed
me when you down so
I pray everyday you start loving me

Yes I know that I
I must take care of me
(You better love you say love yourself first)
And I been told that I
can't put you above
(You better love you better love yourself first)

No I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I have decided to love myself
and no I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I'm not if you don't love you can't love nobody else
(Nobody else.. Nobody else)

[Talking:]
You can't love nobody before you love yourself first
You gotta love yourself (keep on mistreating me)
Mind Body and Soul (gotta love yourself)

And I know I know

Yes I know that I
I must take care of me
(You better love you say love yourself first)
And I've been told that I
I can't put you above me
(You better love you better love yourself first)

No I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I have decided to love myself
and no I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I'm not if you don't love you
you can't love nobody else!

No I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I have decided to love myself
and no I'm not gone keep on mistreating me
I'm not if you don't love you can't love nobody else

Break it down now
tie it down

Mistreating me.. (No you can't)
Love yourself..
