Hatred and Love (Re-released Version)

I've done some bad, don't be the one to tempt me And I've done some good, but the good I've done don't exempt me From feelin' envy, when I need a refill, empty, but I'll be the one if you let me Or even if you don't, have you met me I been thinkin' bout, mistakes that I've made I been holdin' doubts, bout things I can't change It's a crazy mind game, but the pain in my veins Has paved the way for great things, trails to blaze and make gains Ain't been through a lot but I been through enough To know the difference 'tween hatred and love Those two words can mean the same thing When you hate that you love the things that bring pain Sick of the victims, stuck in the system Thinking everybody's out to get them We all been a victim, guess you been forgetting Bout the shit your given, it's a fucken privilege Frowned upon, looked down upon By people that don't stand the ground I'm on Tossed aside, been left behind Left in dust but I'm catchin' up I'm comin for the top and I'm not gonna stop No I'm not gonna drop off, unless you're talkin About the bars I'm droppin' When I walk in the booth I'm locked in The kick is my heart, the keys are my blood The words represent all the things that I love Below and above, I'm showin' the love I grow from the love, cuz I know it's enough The moment it's woven, I go through the motions Like Moses devotion I open the sea I know what I seek Those who oppose me are mostly intrigued Being the man that I'm hopin' to be Standing up here with my cloak in the breeze Not jokin' you see, I show my technique I walk down the road for a moment of peace I'm holdin' the key I don't know what it's going to be But I'm growin' at least The world's my plate and I'm going to feast Ya the world's my plate and I'm goin to feast And I see the place that I'm goin to reach I can read your face, I know you weep I feel that pain, It goes so deep I was there from the start, not prepared to depart Not fair to the art, to tear it apart, I swear on my heart I haven't laid it to rest, there's a pain in my chest The more I think about it, the more insane that it gets Every teen has a dream to be the king or the queen They sing and we scream Things that we need seem to recede But we are ever so keen If you ever believe you can have everythin' Then you already win that's something I learned And I already been in a place where it hurts And I already sinned, now I have to repent Worry bout this and worry bout that Worry bout yo future and doin yo duty to clean up your act Like I'm doin my duty to clean up my rap You keep your feet on your path I keep my head up, and even when fed up I keep with the facts And it goes deeper than that, but I guess I'll just leave it at that
