Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You gonna waste your house and home
Throwin' your money away, so long
Goodbye to the love you think you know
Gamblin' woman don't let your love run
Dry your eyes my baby love
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
[Verse 2]
Beautiful face, I see your eye
Black and blue don't make good colors on
You salvation does rely
Don't let your man take everything
Say goodbye to the one you think you love
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
[Verse 3]
Now you see it comin', you can take off runnin'
Try to make a dream or two come true
Say a big hail Mary, catch that ferry
And I'll be waitin' for you
[Verse 4]
Baby, your friends are here for you
Tell that lyin' man to stop makin'
Excuses why he's mean to you
Let him know the love he stands to
Lose if he abuses you
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
[Verse 5]
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
If you really love yourself, you gotta leave 'em behind
