I Love Me Better Than That

I love me better than that
Yeah
I'm going to get my life back

As I look in the mirror a broken woman I see
Broken down by the streets of life's journey
That broken woman is me
So, I take me a little ride
Back down memory lane
Pass the verbal and physical abuse and all the drama and pain
I've got to plead from this crazy situation
'Cause it's driving me insane
Now I'm packing up all my broken pieces
And a little bit of strength and remains
'Cause I love me

I love better than that
Then to lay here and cry or stay here and die
I'm going to get my life back
I know I've made my mistakes
But it's never to late

Do I have any sisters
Who will agree with me?
It's time to come to your senses
It's time face reality
I hear you sister girl when your saying
"I just don't want to be lonely"
But it's impossible to love somebody else
When you don't even love your self
It's time to plead from this crazy situation
'Cause it's driving you insane
So, come on and pack up all your broken pieces
And all your strength that remains
Pick up yourself and say

I love me better than that
Then to lay here and cry or stay here and die
I'm going to get my life back

I'm gonna get my life back
Get my life back

The enemy comes
To kill and destroy
But I'm gonna get my life back
To take your hopes and dreams
And kill all of your joy
Said I'm going to get my life back
But as a child of God
I hope you can see
That he'll renew your strength
And he will give you victory

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I love me better than that
I love me better, uh-oh
I'm going to get my life back
I'm going to take it back
See I've made up in my mind

I want my joy back
I want my peace back
I want my strength back
All my sisters help me say
I want my joy back
I want my peace back
I want my strength back

I want my mind back
My self-esteem back
I want my keys back
Say it, say it, say it
I want my mind back
My self-esteem back
I want my keys back

Ye, ye, ye, ye, ye, ye, yeah

I want my hope back
I want my dreams back
So, don't you come back
No, no, no, no, no
I want my hope back
(I want my hope back)
I want my dreams back
(Dreams back)

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I'm going to get my life back
'Cause I love me
(I love me better than that)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
