  • No use crying 'bout lost love
    A heart gooder was back in the day
    It was good alright, pretty damn good but not that good in the way
    It's gone gone gone gone gone
    And now I spend too much time thinking 'bout people do the things they do
    Why take it personally? No way
    I said where they at don't got too much to do with you at all
    Models will be the first ones to walk away

    After all you is, is another dog barking in the yard
    After all you is, is another empty glass sitting on the bar
    After all you is, is a spinning tire on the car
    You rode today, you rode tomorrow
    So make a little love, take a little love
    Give a little more than you get
    Got to love love love yourself before you love love love somebody else
    You got to love yourself, you got to love yourself, yeah

    They say don't cry 'bout spilled milk
    Today's just about good enough, better than nothing
    But not at all what I thought it be, I ain't meant to live this way
    Take down the G's telling me what to do and what to say

    After all you is, is another dog barking in the yard
    After all you is, is a fallen down house of cards
    After all you is, is a thumping in my racing heart
    Beat today, and beat tomorrow
    So make a little love, take a little love
    Give a little more than you get
    Take a little love, make a little love, give a little more than you get
    Make a little love, take a little love, give a little more than you get
    Got to love love love yourself
    Before you love love love somebody else
    You got to love yourself
    You got to love yourself

    Just sitting on corner, tryna go down in history
    Taking it slow 'cause don't know better
    You could travel 10 thousand miles all around the world
    Tryna figure it out and end up back where you started from
    And everybody always wanna know what life is all about
    But you gotta live to figure it out, come on

    Make a little love, take a little love, give a little more than you get
    Take a little love, make a little love, give a little more than you get
    Make a little love, take a little love, give a little more than you get
    You got to love love love yourself, love yourself Writer/s: CISCO ADLER, CODY SIMPSON, GARRETT DUTTON
