[Mary J. Blige:]. It's been a long ride but I made it here with love. I made it here with love love. Said I been and up and down and I've been through it all. Took a while to know my heart. Oh yes it has yes. Before a love like this you go. Through the fire and valley lows. But if you just hold on. Please hold on this love is strong it'll save you. Oh please hold on it'll save you save you. Truth can be the sweetest pain. It could mess up everything. It's the only way I know. I'm payin' for it I'm changin' for it. Oh oh and it hurts. But I'll make it work. 'Cause I'm no beginner I'm a winner. Paid dues I know my purpose. Thought they put my life on hold. But I knew somethin' they didn't know. I know myself too much to ever fold. Dark clouds I'm movin' past you. Oh you gotta love yourself. If you really wanna be with someone else. You gotta feed yourself. Before you feed somebody else. You gotta stay open and don't be foolish. 'Cause everybody don't mean you well. You gotta love yourself. Before you love somebody else. [Kanye West:]. Yeah you gotta love yourself. Uh you know what I'm sayin'?. I've decided not to use my color as a handicap. He a designer artist producer and he rap. Never found virtue from patience. In a dark room just pacin'. Precious time is just wastin'. You do not know what we facin'. I can not be complacent. In my job be courageous. Another kid just got shot. They can't find the assailant. Made it outta the basement. Made it outta the underground. From a town where you outta town. They might gun you down (blat). There goes another round (blat). There goes another round. Came from this Chi and wow. Look what the fuck they found. A young legend comin' to shut the summer down. You need to talk to me like you don't bring yo motha 'round. [Mary J. Blige:]. Oh you gotta love yourself oh yeah. If you really wanna be with someone else. You gotta feed yourself. Before you feed somebody else. You gotta stay open and don't be foolish. 'Cause everybody don't mean you well. You gotta love yourself. (You gotta love yourself). Before you love somebody else. I don't feel no ways tired. Can't get restless in the soul. Hold your heart the world is cold. Keep sayin' I don't ya start prayin' on it. Yeah it will come to pass. Don't worry 'bout nothin'. God knows that you're worth it. You deserve it can't nothin' else hurt ya. Thought they put my life on hold. But I knew somethin' they didn't know. I know myself too much to ever fold. Dark clouds I'm movin' past you. Oh you gotta love yourself oh yeah. If you really wanna be with someone else. You gotta feed yourself. Before you feed somebody else. You gotta stay open and don't be foolish. 'Cause everybody don't mean you well.
