Love won't come from someone who don't want to see you thrive
So if his love is holding you down
That's not love, baby girl, that's pride
If he's holding you down inside
Love is something he won't provide (no, no, no)
If he's holding you down inside
Then love is something he won't provide

Love is patient, love is pure
Love isn't a game that people play with when they're lonely or insecure
No, love is selfless, love is kind
Love is something you can only give if you wanna see somebody shine
There isn't a thing I wouldn't do for you
I would bury my pride just to bear your fruits
If love is a verb, let your actions show
Otherwise, you gotta let them know
And you should know that

Love won't come from someone who don't want to see you thrive
So if the love is holding you down
That's not love anymore, that's pride
If he's holding you down inside
Love is something she won't provide
If he's holding you down inside
Then love is something she won't provide (I said girl)

Girl, I hate it when you frown
Love to turn that upside down
But at the same time, if you need to be sad
I'm right there in your corner till the sadness passes, baby
I'd love to watch your dreams come true
I'll do what I have to do for you
But if it means I'm watching from the side
Girl you're worthy of the glory, I just wanna see you shine
'Cause your language of love is the tongue of the soul
And I tell you I love you, it means I will go to the ends of the earth just to wander your rose
If I say I love you it’s because I know that

Love won't come from someone who don't want to see you thrive
So if their love is holding you down
That's not love anymore, that's pride
If they’re holding you down inside
Then love is something they won't provide
If they’re holding you down inside
Then love is something they won't provide
I said love won't come from someone who don't want to see you thrive
So if their love is holding you down
That's not love babygirl, that's pride
Said if they’re holding you down inside
Love is something they won't provide
Said if they’re holding you down inside
Then love is something they won't provide

If they're holding you, holding you, holding you
They’re holding you, holding you, holding you
They’re holding you down then baby
Love won't come from someone who don't want to see you thrive
So if their love is holding you down
That's not love, baby girl, that's pride
