Lyrics
Hate By Design
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Yeah!
Born into this world of hatred
We are born free
From the restraints of this society
Helpless to what is instilled
(Yeah)
To all those who raise us, mold us, and shape us:
There is a time to separate
From this
A reason why, a state of mind
There's a disconnection
A judgement made
Fueled by hate, it's your mistake
It's a choice you made
It's tearing us apart
Hate
Hate by design
Is destroying our lives
Seek to find
Some understanding
Redefine your life!
Consequence, effected
In a life that is rejected
Anger misplaced
A burden on our hearts
That's keeping us apart
No love
No understanding
What we design is hate inside
A misconception
A judgement made
(A judgement made)
It's our mistake
What we create
When we lose compassion
It's tearing us apart
Hate
Hate by design
(Hate by design)
Is destroying our lives
Seek to find
(We'll seek to find)
Some understanding
Redefine your life!
Redefine your understanding
Redefine your own life
(Go!)
Hate
Hate by design
(By design)
Is destroying our lives
(Our lives)
Seek to find
Some understanding
Redefine your life!
