Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Used to wake up Counting every scar Every quiet comment Cutting like it’s art Kept a smile Pinned it to my face But every mirror Felt like empty space [Pre-Chorus] How many nights Did I give myself away Trying to fit some shape I was never meant to make [Chorus] I’m learning to love myself Right here Right now As I am (as I am) Learning from the heartache Turning all the hurt into a plan Every broken piece I’m holding I’m calling it mine Calling it help I’m learning from the pain So I can finally love myself [Verse 2] Used to beg For a softer voice For a different story For a different choice Now I trace All the lines I’ve earned Every quiet bruise Is a lesson learned [Pre-Chorus] How many times Did I apologize for me Now I’m letting go Of who I thought I had to be [Chorus] I’m learning to love myself Right here Right now As I am (yeah, I am) Learning from the heartache Turning all the hurt into a plan Every broken piece I’m holding I’m calling it mine Calling it help I’m learning from the pain So I can finally love myself [Bridge] I forgive the kid Who didn’t know his name I forgive the one Who stayed inside the flame I forgive the face I used to try to change I forgive it all And I love it just the same (oh) [Chorus] I’m learning to love myself Right here Right now As I am Learning from the heartache Turning all the hurt into a plan Every broken piece I’m holding I’m calling it mine Calling it help (calling it help) I’m learning from the pain So I can finally love myself [Outro] Step by step Breath by breath I’m learning I’m learning To love myself
