I Hate You!
 
How could you get under my skin like this, only to bring me a rash of pain and emotional torture?
 
What sort of a creation are you?
 
Understand, now, and for the rest of my life, I don't want you in my existence and I truly hate you!
 
You were so unbelievable, so new, so…. different—you could've been so easy to love, get along with, and relate to
 
I've dealt with you before but the thing that has me trippin' is you are always in the air, on the minds of many, and hard to shrug off.
 
You're over dramatized on TV, played out in books, done to death in cinemas, worked to death in life.
 
And, you still don't understand the impact you make.
I have no high-tech, super-enlightened, Freudian theory on why you are such a sore subject in my life; all I know is, you are to be avoided, for my mentality to stay focused and for me keeping my eye on the prize.
 
 
Such an irritating cliché and, I hope you're gone one day Oh, you still don't have the meaning of the words I had to say? I'm talking on my biggest irritation, my most commonly held gripe
It's loveI hate it like a person tense—the out of patience type
 
I hate you through all four seasons
With all your love songs with a rhyme and a reason
Many people think you're their purpose and you make the world go round But all I got from you was heartache and hurt is all I've found
 
A thing that's said to be of beauty and a necessary element
To live life more abundantly, it's said to be a compliment To you're every way, and all your days should be fulfilled
Girlfriends say, “You need a man!” To which I say, “Y'all need to chill.”
They claim to not understand where I'm coming from—Okay, to be more specific “Listen, I'm wishing love, beyond religion and family, never existed”
To which, I'm labeled as “wrong” for, being that I'm not the only one on earth
Who hates and detests love, for all that it's worth
 
 
With my whole life ahead of me and not knowing it all—having not experiencing every aspect of life—I know that this is one road of life I'd assume not travel again.
