    After having a mental breakdown, you empathize with the girl more and more in this video. This song soothes you, reminds you. Be gentle on yourself because you deserve love too.

      David Rodriguez this comment hit me hard...because when I met my girlfriend she grew up touched on and she didn’t care about herself. She said after I came into her life I made everything better and she’s starting to respect herself now. I’m a proud young man who saved a life ❤️

      We have to start by lifting our youth up as a country and loving them together so that they will know how to love themselves. Without love for yourself you cannot give love completely and in a way that someone else deserves and wont know what kind of love they also deserve from another. So we dont have to live through another time that our children are ever going to have to feel hatred of other's for no valid reason claiming rhetoric like race or secual orientation. We have to stop this division and hatred weve allowed ONE hateful narcissist to poison our ppl and far too many of our youth.. lets get love back in our lives an pour it into our future and get our happiness BACK!!we r running out of time .. our kids r losing their future

    I love this song I cry every time I hear this cuz people are so quick to judge you without knowing what you went thru in life. And so once upon time I worked as a waitress in a strip club and I made sure to make friends with them all and learn their stories and broke my heart. Because most of them were so nice and were there just to make ends meet. Some had families they were raising or some were paying for school. Like we need to have more compassion for our fellow humans one day we won’t be here anymore and those are the moments that will count. I also don’t stab anyone in the back ESPECIALLY loyal loving ones that would literally go to the moon and back for you !

    Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
    How to love
    How to love, mmh
    You had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
    Now you in a corner tryna put it together
    How to love
    How to love, mmh
    For a second you were here, now you over there
    It's hard not to stare, the way you moving your body
    Like you never had a love (had a love, ayy)
    Never had a love (had a love, ayy)
    When you was just a youngin', your looks were so precious
    But now you're grown up, so fly it's like a blessing
    But you can't have a man look at you for five seconds
    Without you being insecure (insecure)
    You never credit yourself so when you got older
    It's seems like you came back ten times over
    Now you're sitting here in this damn corner
    Looking through all your thoughts and looking over your shoulder
    See you had a lot of crooks try to steal your heart
    Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
    How to love
    How to love
    Mh, see you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
    Now you in this corner tryna put it together
    How to love
    How to love
    Mh, for a second you were here, now you over there
    It's hard not to stare, the way you moving your body
    Like you never had a love (had a love, ayy)
    had a love (had a love, ayy)
    Oh, and you had a lot of dreams that transformed to visions
    The fact that you saw the world affected all your decisions
    But it wasn't your fault, wasn't in your intentions
    To be the one here talking to me, be the one listening
    But, but I admire your poppin' bottles and dippin'
    Just as much as you admire bartending and strippin'
    Baby, so don't be mad, nobody else trippin'
    You seen a lot of crooks and them crooks still crook
    You see you had a lot of crooks try to steal your heart
    Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
    How to love
    How to love
    Mh, see you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
    Now you in this corner tryna put it together
    How to love
    How to love
    Oh, see I just want you to know
    That you deserve the best
    You're beautiful (ayy), you're beautiful (ayy)
    Yeah, and I want you to know
    You're far from the usual (ayy), far from the usual (ayy)
    You see you had a lot of crooks try to steal your heart
    Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
    How to love
    How to love
    Mh, see you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever

      I was in Toronto recent and this album dropped. I lit up some incense, blasted the bass and vibed out hard. I stared out at the beautiful skyscrapers surrounding and hoped they all loved each other. I was into other lyrics also all for human agape and this really surpassed them. I felt like the song made me feel high on weed again. I wrote some compositions as this was a major inspiration. 😇

      ***** Please refrain from your blatant persuasion to listen to other music. People can like whatever kind of music they want or whatever song they want and no one's opinion matters. This is a fantastic song and just because you fail to see that doesn't mean it is bad. Maybe he doesn't like Led Zeppelin. I know I don't because it's not what I like to listen to.

      Yeah! He didn't freestyle shit. Detail wrote the song, Lil Wayne just got luck of the draw to sing it. Dumbass.
      I not once hated on him, I just stated a fact. Maybe if you passed the 3rd grade English, you'd have better reading comprehension.

    • @Trazyn_the_Infinite_40K
      @Trazyn_the_Infinite_40K Před 9 lety +1

      Marlen Rodgers You don't need to use a semicolon or colon unless you're directing the reader's attention to something which is important. If I'm making a simple connection between two independent clauses, you use a comma. Had this not been important, you wouldn't have mentioned it at all if what I said about your reading comprehension meant nothing. You brought it up out of a psychological need to defend yourself. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, nobody wants to lose face in front of others or to have their reputation damaged regardless of whether company is present at the situation. Ergo, it obviously was important because I made an attack on your intelligence, which lead to a logos appeal by mentioning your ACT score, something anyone secure in their intelligence would never mention. And then returned the attack from a spiteful yet reserved tone which was palpable in your response. Again, simple psychological defense.
      Detail is a record producer, a writer, and an artist. If I recall, he has done a few songs.

  • @KaylaTheKindOne

    I always knew this song was about a woman who never had a chance to learn what real love is, but at the age of 22, I can now understand that it even extends to her not knowing how to love herself. And the singer isn't just a man enamored by her, it's a man who's speaking a pure and well-intentioned truth. He's encouraging her to overcome her insecurities, to not blame herself for her trauma. And that's beautiful.
    The music video tells a story of just how important it is for parents to love themselves and teach their children how to love.
    Always remember that you deserve the best of what life has to offer. You deserve good things. You deserve to be happy.
