Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Born into this world of hatred
[Verse 2]
We are born free from the restraints of this society
Helpless to what is instilled
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
[Verse 3]
Hate
Hate by design
Is destroying our lives
Seek to find some understanding
Redefine your life
[Verse 4]
Consequence effected in a life that is rejected
Anger misplaced
A burden on our hearts that's keeping us apart
No love, no understanding
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
Hate
Hate by design (Hate by design)
Is destroying our lives
Seek to find (We seek to find)
Some understanding
Redefine your life
[Verse 7]
Redefine your understanding
Redefine your own life
[Verse 8]
Hate
Hate by design (Hate by design)
Is destroying our lives (Our lives)
Seek to find some understanding
Redefine your life
