Jack Maguire - luv yourself first (Official Visualizer)

Love Letter, my second album, is out now.
LYRICS
(C’mon, dawg, you know you can’t do it alone)
The boy got too much time on his hands
So many thoughts but no plans
Doing what he know he can
'Cause he know that the good days will come back around
But what's he gonna do with himself now?
He know he gotta love himself first
He gotta love himself first
It was that struggle between the pink and the livin'
Individualism, he took pride in it
He always loved being part of the team
But there were times where it was so hard to see
He had to love himself first
He gotta love himself first
You know, he's right, nobody can do it by themselves
We all know what loneliness feels like, we all been through hell
You know you gotta find something to prove
But how do you find energy to make it through
If you don't love yourself first?
You gotta love yourself first
And we know 'bout recognizing the real and the fake
But you gotta have some self-respect to know what to take
Hard choices make it harder to breathe
Look in your heart and ask "What's best for me?"
You gotta love yourself first
You gotta love yourself first
You gotta love yourself first
You gotta love yourself first
This wintertime, I was tryna figure out who to be
Long walks while I searched for inner peace
I invested all of my energy into friends
I really thought that they could fix all my problems
But I had to stop and turn to the person who was actually tryna solve 'em
Tried to use my phone less, tried to change how I was always out less
And music really gave me an outlet for my soul
While I stressed about things I can't control
But my mama always said be the best version of yourself
My dad said don't listen to no one else
And when I started playing music, my uncle told me to follow my dreams
Wish he could see me now, rest in peace
And I ain't perfect, but I'm stronger
It's a beautiful thing to recognize
And it won't be much longer
'fore I have to search for answers in life
But if I love myself first
It won't be as hard as it seems
And if that's something I'm able to realize
Then I can open my eyes to what's truly key
'Cause there's some people who helped me feel content
With being unapologetically me
Now there's some thank-you's that I gotta perform like I rehearsed
But just know that I had to love myself first
