2pac - Hatred lyrics

[2Pac] I'll be on North side Keepin' my peace back in my piece Smokin' sense To deal with this inner city stress I know I'm blessed But these demons are out to curse me Do anything that they can To try and hurt me Good Lord whatever happened To compa**ion and brotherly love Cause now there's hate in every action I try to maintain Be a player in this game But I seem to keep losin' Maybe it's the strategy I'm usin' Or maybe it's the friends that I'm choosin' Jealous a**ociates Guarantee to cause confusion Is it your goal to hide truth? It's an illusion, develop my trust Then leave me stranded in the bust I feel like pullin' out my gun And bustin' on these fakers Two bit punks, perpetrators And player haters But I gots to keep my eyes On the prize Watch me bubble like champagne n***as Watch me Rise Beyond haters [Lucky Luciano] I try to escape but everywhere I go to try and keep my focus But a world without hatred, is like the projects without roses No matter how high I get I can't escape the sense of it And all you hatred a** haters always making me sick I'm trying to find a place where I can go where hatred ain't allowed To show everybody about money, and they all try and blow I'm trying to find a place, where ain't no hating allowed But I'mm always seeing them faces and hearing them haters screaming out loud It's an average night and I got my windows rolled up tight Blowing Mo out the sunroof and not a hater in sight But I'mma keep my third eye open cause I know them haters gonna be waiting To catch me at the light with hopes that they can leave me open Preposition be the past but I know caskets still blast So I'mma lean back in my seat so I can't be seen through the gla** It ain't nuttin' to hold me dawg but I got to watch out for 9 times out of 10 if it's [?????] And I know so I'm careful on who I run with I ain't got no time to be combined in no scandalous a** sh** But everywhere I go I'm hearing what sounds like shot from a 44 Blasting on drivers side door My n***as who sniff too much snow And me I'm just trying to flow Separate my friends with my foes And only f** with n***as who understand the mind [???] So everywhere I go I try to stay completely separated from those with Hearts full of hatred for anybody that makes it
