Masego - A message to women lyrics

A message to women you deserve better than to be called pretty you deserve better than to get upset and go online to act petty you deserve better than to be on hold you deserve better than to hold onto someone who's already let go you deserve better than to be held in convenience you deserve better than to keep your relationship lowkey because someone might see it and someone might ask questions and someone might wonder why someone like you would rather hang around a boy who won't commit when someone like them is ready to love you, is ready to learn you, ready to show you who you are paint you a picture of you through his eyes and convince you that you are indeed art show you the way he's mesmerized the way your broken heart still beats, the way it flutters when whole eyes and yours meet the way it silences to express its beat show you how much he realizes you need healing from this hurting I know you I know something about what you've been through I know some days feel like heavy weights and heartbreaks with protection that you failed to break through I know what it's like to put heartbreak on hold for the "love of your life" who forget relationships take two I know he forgot to say, "I love you too" I know he forgot to stay faithful I know you forgot about the time you promised yourself you'd do better but every time you try to leave something keeps pulling you back telling you this is the best you'll ever have in life, so you stay the night every night he misses you after remembering your head and how good it works and how good it feels to know no matter how bad it gets you'll always come back I know you and he does too we know the way your stomach drops at the thought of him loving someone better so he knows you won't search for better and I know you deserve better I know you deserve better than to have your spirit bruised I know you deserve someone who empowers you I know just how beautiful you can be if only you can see your own self value and I know you you're a collection of paradoxes you are a compilation of food for thought you're a woman before all things you're more a lover than a fighter after all, it seems you're special, listen to me you are special and I know you deserve way better than to settle
