Love Me Enough Lyrics – Nicki Minaj ft. Monica
Love Me Enough Lyrics
[Intro: Monica & Nicki Minaj]
Oh
Monica and Keyshia Cole
[Pre-Chorus: Monica]
I used to think love had to hurt
So I'd do sh!t to make it worse
Got off on the toxic words
I used to think love had to hurt
[Chorus: Keyshia Cole & Nicki Minaj]
But, lately
I've been thinking, maybe
No one needs to save me
'Cause I love me enough for all of y'all
And, lately
They've been tryna change me
But that sh!t don't faze me
'Cause I love me enough for all of y'all (Uh, ayo)
[Verse 1: Nicki Minaj & Monica]
I used to think my happiness depended on a man (A man)
Diamond on the ring finger blinging on my hand (My hand)
Sativa or Indica, it don't matter what the strain
The worst drug of all, the addiction to a man (A man, oh)
Insecurе, real jealous, bitter littlе man (A man)
Cursing, beat a woman, but he never hit a man (A man)
Man, yeah, you such a man, damn (A man)
Like Tina in a limo, well, b!tch had to go ham, scram (Aah)
F**k I look like? (Brr) I wish I would like (Yeah)
Wasted a couple years, now I'm good like (Yeah)
It's worth the pain, I'ma still have a good life
Still be a great mother, still be a good wife
[Pre-Chorus: Monica]
I used to think love had to hurt (Used to)
So I'd do sh!t to make it worse
Got off on the toxic words
I used to think love had to hurt
[Chorus: Keyshia Cole, Monica & Nicki Minaj]
But, lately
I've been thinking, maybe
No one needs to save me
'Cause I love me enough for all of y'all (All of y'all)
And, lately
They've been tryna change me (Oh)
But that sh!t don't faze me (Oh)
'Cause I love me enough for all of y'all (Uh, ayo)
[Verse 2: Nicki Minaj & Monica]
I don't need bitter betties to believe me (Oh, yeah)
And I don't care how the media perceives me
I just do it for the girls who ain't never had it easy (Oh)
The woman who conceived me, the girl in the mirror (Oh)
That just cries when she sees me, easy, I'm breezy
Finger on the trigger yelling, "Squeeze me, relieve me" (Oh)
I thought that everyone who loved me would leave me
But, f**k that, I love this new chick named Me-me (I love)
First things first, all my girls, know your worth
Self-love is the greatest love on Earth (Yeah)
Cry your eyes out, get it out, it's the worst
But love don't hurt, no
[Pre-Chorus: Monica]
I used to think love had to hurt (Used to)
So I'd do sh!t to make it worse
Got off on the toxic words
I used to think love had to hurt
[Chorus: Keyshia Cole & Monica]
But, lately
I've been thinking, maybe
No one needs to save me
'Cause I love me enough for all of y'all (All of y'all)
And, lately
They've been tryna change me (Oh)
But that sh!t don't faze me (Oh)
'Cause I love me enough for all of y'all
[Post-Chorus: Monica & Keyshia Cole]
(Ee) Love me enough, love me enough
Love me enough for all of y'all (I love)
(Ee) Love me enough, love me enough
Love me enough for all of y'all (All of y'all)
(Ee) All of y'all, all of y'all
All of y'all, all love, y'all (All of y'all)
(Ee) All of y'all, all of y'all
All of y'all, all love, y'all
[Bridge: Nicki Minaj & Monica]
Oh, baby, don't you play
Wipe your pretty little face
Let 'em say what they say
Oh, baby, walk away (Oh)
Oh, baby, don't you play
Wipe your pretty little face
Let 'em say what they say
Celebrate you walked away
Celebrate, celebrate (Celebrate)
Celebrate you walked away (You walked away, yeah)
Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate you walked away (Oh)
[Outro: Monica]
Walked away
I gotta celebrate, you gotta celebrate
Walked away, c'mon
Woo
