""Trying to Love""
  by Group: Lyrical Divas


Beauty is skin deep...
That's why when I look in the mirror...
I whisper ... DAMN I LOVE ME

I'm more than this chocolate brown skin
See I'm trying to love....
So, I’m starting from within

In order to find love, I hear I have to love me...
So before I go looking for a man
I'm going to get comfortable loving me ... you see!

You have to find out what you love about you
That way when a Man comes around...
He has to know how to treat you as well as you do!

Preach- that last line is where I'm at in my life. But yea before you commit to anyone it's important not just to know yourself but to love yourself too!

*Applauses for 10 minutes*... we tend to forget that true love comes from within... but loving yourself falls right under learning God's love... seek his face Diva... I'm feelin this one
