Letra de 'Lifting You' de Michael Blume

Can't do it anymore, it's too much weight
Hurts my vibe, hurts my pen
My whole game's thrown off
You disarm me, you know my weak spots
One-person is an army

It's alarming how quickly I've become fatigued
A new league
And now my old teammate is like my police
Controlling my thoughts
Carteling my dreams
And I'm planting my seeds

So I've gotta let go
I'm cutting the ropes
But you don't have to fall
You can pass aboard
You can take some notes
You can make a call
But you gotta trust your insides
You gotta fuck with your own shine

You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
Yeah, you've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first

'Cause I can't keep lifting you
Can't keep lifting you
I can't keep lifting you
I can't keep lifting you
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)

Yes, it's uncomfortable but I need to say
You can't get anywhere if you don't love the way you're made
You've got to be the one that defines you
Be the one who supplies you
Study those that inspire you
Your fire is uniquely you

How do you expect to grow?
How do you expect to know more?
You're not gonna get more dope
Being mad at someone else's flow

External validation is not a prerequisite for self-appreciation
External validation is not a prerequisite for self-appreciation

You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
Yeah, you've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first
You've got to love yourself first

Cause I can't keep lifting you
Can't keep lifting you, oh
I can't keep lifting you (I can't keep lifting you)
I can't keep lifting you
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
Can't keep lifting you (higher) (so it's so high)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)

There's just no time for comparing
Sharing is all we can do, yeah
I see the beauty inside you (I see the beauty inside you)
But it's worthless till you see it too

You got to love yourself first
You got to love yourself first
You got to love yourself first
You got to love yourself first
Yeah, you got to love yourself first
You got to love yourself first
You got to love yourself first
You got to love yourself first

Cause I can't keep lifting you
Can't keep lifting you
I can't keep lifting you
I can't keep lifting you (I can't keep lifting you)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
Can't keep lifting you (higher)
I can't keep lifting you (higher) (I'm going up)
I can't keep lifting you (higher) (But I only have so much strength)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
Can't keep lifting you (higher)

I can't keep lifting you (higher) (I'm trying my best)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
(Wanna see you right there next to me)
I can't keep lifting you (higher)
Can't keep lifting you (higher) (But you gotta love)
I can't keep lifting you (higher) (You gotta love)
I can't keep lifting you (higher) (Go on say love)
