Unappreciated

You show up for everybody
but yourself
Got used to doing everything
but never asked for help
See, you're the person
that people take for granted
And eventually regret it
When they realize the void that you left
And the hardest part for you
is just choosing not to go back
Because you holding on to memories
of what you used to have
And I know it seems like
everything you do goes unnoticed
People say they grateful
you just want someone one to show it
It's something bout being wanted
It's something bout being seen
It's something bout being chosen
over all those other things
That make you feel alive
and make you feel less alone
Make you feel like maybe
you don't always have to be so strong
I get it
But coming from somebody who took so many for granted
I just want say that you're appreciated
Don't let somebody's choices
and decisions give your worth a definition
You deserve to express your love language
You can take my time and attention
My affirmation are endless
Physically touch your soul
with these words that I've written
Give you gifts out of love
without expecting something back
Serve you with my heart
Look, I swear it ain't no act
Cause you deserve all of that
You deserve all of that
You deserve all of that
Baby, you deserve all of that
Cause every time I look at you
I can see the smile that hides your pain
You want someone to notice you
But you should know that you're appreciated
And you never gon' forget it again
You've been fighting back tears for so long
you feel like no one cares
so you gotta stay strong
You perfected a smile
that only breaks when you're alone
And it's hard to ask for help
when you do some much on your own
But if I had it my way
you would never feel forgotten
Never make you feel like you were just another option
Because you're the whole package
I ain't afraid of your baggage
You just want love someone
to show it with their actions
There ain't too much to ask
Look, I swear you ain't no burden
People come and go
it make you wonder if it's worth it
I get it
And I know it's hard to trust
when you feel like nobody sees you
You don't open up
in case they leave you
But you got so much value
And I know that you know this
But people make you question
if you loved or if you chosen
But let them all regret it
because eventually they'll know it
The one that got away
was the one they never noticed
Cause every time I look at you
I can see the smile that hides your pain
You want someone to notice you
But you should know that you're appreciated
And you never gon' forget it again
