Hate me all you want
[00:01.17] I walk down roads with a dust in my hair
[00:05.96] Worked my fingers raw while nobody cared
[00:11.53] They smiled to my face, whispered when I'd go
[00:15.26] But I learned real quick what I needed to know
[00:20.05] Life's too short for fake handshakes
[00:23.77] Too much pain in the love they make
[00:27.75] So I pour my heart in what I do
[00:30.14] And let the lies roll off like morning dew
[00:39.18] Hate me all you want, I don't care
[00:42.10] I don't mess with two-faced hypocrites
[00:44.22] I swear I'm gon' be me
[00:46.61] And stay busy working hard and living free
[00:49.53] You can talk your talk behind my back
[00:52.19] I ain't got time for that kind of act
[00:54.59] I'd rather die standing tall than live on my knees
[00:59.63] Yeah, hate me all you want, I'm at peace, mm
[01:06.27] Some folks love to see you fall apart
[01:09.46] They feed off your pain like it's fine
[01:11.86] Oh, but I got a fire that won't go out
[01:14.52] A soul that's real, that what I'm about
[01:17.18] Every scar I earned, I wear with pride
[01:19.32] They remind me who I am inside
[01:21.71] You can keep your gossip, your plastic smiles
[01:24.36] I'll be chasing dreams for miles and miles
[01:27.02] Hate me all you want, I don't care
[01:28.63] I don't mess with two-faced hypocrites
[01:31.29] I swear I'm gon' be me
[01:33.41] And stay busy working hard and living free
[01:37.68] You can talk your talk behind my back
[01:39.81] I ain't got time for that kind of act
[01:41.94] I'd rather die standing tall than live on my knees
[01:47.25] Yeah, hate me all you want, I'm at peace, mm
[01:53.36] Let the thunder roll, let the rain pour down
[01:57.35] I made peace with this hometown
[01:59.47] Don't need no crowd, don't need no show
[02:01.61] I'm fine with the truth, I know
[02:04.27] Hate me all you want, I don't care
[02:06.92] I don't mess with two-faced hypocrites
[02:09.31] I swear I'm gon' be me
[02:12.77] And stay busy working hard and living free
[02:14.36] My hands are dirty but my soul's clean
[02:17.02] Living my truth, chasing my dreams
[02:19.14] You can't hate me all you want, that's fine by me
[02:29.34] 'Cause I'm free
[02:35.18] Yeah, I'm free
[02:39.70] Mm
