Things I Hate
A.D.A.C. 8286 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Having trouble with the words to say
All my feelings I been throwing away
And all I ever do is try to run away
And I've been so numb overcame my rage
(Said I)
I've been feeling like I'm digging my grave
Pray the lord for my soul to take
Know it's different from the shit I display
All the things I hate all the things I hate
All the things I hate and it's starting with you
Got me bumping in my ride truly all I play is blues
Babe I really only hate me just understand
That it didn't take persuading to play my hand
But I guess we want the same thing it wasn't planned
All this shit that I've breaking I'm not a man
Now I'm clouded with my hate I've been thinking just to rage
Cause it's better than the numbness and it's better than the pain
Lately I've been feeling selfish really hope that you're okay
You're okay
By the way I'm ashamed from the way I handled things
Cause I played you like a rattle and I played you like a game
Now I'm burning in this blame like a candle like a flame
Having trouble with the words to say
All my feelings I been throwing away
And all I ever do is try to run away
And I've been so numb overcame my rage
(Said I)
I've been feeling like I'm digging my grave
I pray the lord for my soul to take
Know it's different from the shit I display
All the things I hate all the things I hate
All the things I hate and it's ending with you
I couldn't make this song without mentioning you
Out of all my loves your the hardest to lose
Like what's it gonna take to fucking get it through
My mind do this all the time
I still got all your habits guess I love you deep inside
If truth is being told you're the reason why I rhyme
Like why I got it started and why I just wanna shine
I know we been butting heads never seen it eye to eye
And I wish we could've lasted I'm not tryna hide my pride
But the things that you've done making cupid stop the quiver
I rarely want to see you if I ever do I look into my mirror
Having trouble with the words to say
All my feelings I been throwing away
And all I ever do is try to run away
And I've been so numb overcame my rage
(Said I)
I've been feeling like I'm digging my grave
I pray the lord for my soul to take




Know it's different from the shit I display
All the things I hate all the things I hate
