Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't you want you to win
If they ain't winning
Hate is love can't tell me the difference
Thoughts Yous my nigga
I seen it right in ya eyes
The hate was to hard to hide
You looking like homicide
Da hating it didn't work
You went to go to telling lies
I'm guess I'm to loyal niggas
It is Wat it is I can't fuck wit you niggas
Love is luv well not wit you niggas
Instead of go grind you steal it from niggas
N I just ain't feeling that
That's bringing the cause effect you know wha going come wit that
Wat you did is done
Remember ain't no coming back
You reap what you sow
Be prepared fo that
Just keep all that fake shit from round me dug
And then you going go try n take my plug ?
Fck is you on
Fck is you doing
I'm dropping the top
And I'm fckin ya jawn
Get mad ? Nigga get ah bag
Took ah L den I bounce back
Now tell me how real is that
Down since a lor nigga
All I did was keep it trill wit ya
And that's how you feel nigga
Shorty change n the shit hurt
Do dirt then they get murked
N they done did the sht first
They ont watch but they still lurk
Drag on em till they feel hurt
Got me Filling up a whole Hearst
Niggas dey like to be bummy
Don't wanna get money
They stay on that Fck shit
They love being cruddy
I stay out the way and pour up my muddy
N Fck wit my real ones I know that they love me
Niggas is mad that I got it
Like How did you get it ?
How much is it ?
You should be happy jus seeing me wit it
BUT
Stayed solid n I stayed real
Front niggas n I gave deals
N that still ain't enough
Got friends I can't trust
Niggas they want what we got
I'm hearing they plot , I know that they takin some shots
But niggas ain't built for the league
They still cuttin checks over seas
Went from the jeep to the Bentley truck
Who keeping score is they keeping up ?
Still that CA nigga posted up
Now we the face of UA when em posters up
That look in ya eye show you falling off
Do he got It or bluffin I can't even call
These niggss goin broke n it ain't close
They running wit sauce n they steal quotes
30 thous in one month
Ran it up ran it up
Damn right it ain't close
They drinking beer
We make toast
Ain't all in
Let em go!
Yuh
Broke niggas watch em close
When they stave do the most
It was love I called you bro
Dem true colors always show
Fuck you niggas now it's fuxk you niggas fuck em
These lyrics from the Black Eyed Peas song Where is the Love discuss the issue of jealousy and hate between people, particularly those who are supposed to be friends or part of a community. The line "Niggas don't want you do better then them" highlights the idea that some individuals are not willing to see others succeed or do better than themselves. They may even try to bring down those who are successful to make themselves feel better. The lyrics also suggest that sometimes the hate is disguised as love and it can be difficult to differentiate between the two.
The rapper explains that he saw the hate in his friend's eyes and realized that it was too hard to hide. He can't understand why some people would rather steal or cheat instead of working hard to achieve their goals. He also talks about loyalty and how important it is for him to surround himself with the right people. He has no interest in being around individuals who fake it or are not genuine. The lyrics suggest that people should be prepared to face the consequences of their actions as they reap what they sow.
The rapper discusses the pain of betrayal, as someone he considered a friend changed and started doing dirty things, which led to them getting hurt. He is aware of those who try to plot against him and the people he cares about, but he also identifies those who are genuine and supportive.
Overall, these lyrics convey a message of hope and encourage people to stay true to themselves and not let negative influences affect them. They suggest that we should surround ourselves with positive and supportive individuals while being aware of those who may try to bring us down.

That's because it isn't news when a man with a gun saves a family or a man with a gun saves several people from another man with a gun. It doesn't fit the agenda driven by the media.
It isn't news when a cop shoots a white person, it's only news when a black person is shot, regardless if he deserved it or not, in order to pus the agenda.
It's not news when it's something good. It's news when it's bad.
You have to keep one thing in mind. Almost ALL of the mainstream media is biased and favors the left.
So why does the left keep pushing all the stories of blacks being killed and mass shootings?
It's to promote the agendas they are pushing.
Everyone calls Republicans racist, but it was Democrats who started the KKK...
Not to mention, Democrats / Leftists in Universities are pushing segregation of people based on skin color, sexual identity, sexual preference, religion etc. non stop... And they punish anyone who supports our country ... Many times over students have been removed from campuses for handing out free constitutions on constitution day... and threatened by campus police at times.
Trust me... The left has never cared about humans once they learned how much power they could gain from playing on humans emotions and when they learned they could indoctrinate people long term. A book written in 1916 by a man named John Dewey called Democracy and Education set our country up for failure.
But please, don't get me wrong. Republicans aren't much better though. But at least they have some morals.
I think a healthy mix of socialism and capitalism are a great way to run a government. Sadly, it wouldn't work in America. Capitalism+Socialism in Northern Europe (Nordic System) works because the government is smaller. And it is held accountable.
It wouldn't work in a government like ours for two main reasons.
1. Our government isn't held accountable. Not by the people, not by other government entities.
2. For every $1 the U.S. government takes from us in taxes, only $0.35 makes it to where it is supposed to go.
Google, "How much money disappears in government" and watch the stories flow in... Nearly $600,000,000 that was for Zika funding, has vanished.... lol $45,000,000,000 lost in Afghanistan. Just 2 of thousands of examples.
Seriously, and people actually think that the government here should be responsible for our healthcare?
Anyways, I've gone way off track. I just really wish people would pay attention to the world around them carefully instead of relying on crap like social media and the mainstream media or a radio show to get their info.
It's a full time effort / hobby to truly grasp everything, and if you don't have the time, then please don't get involved and try to debate or call people ignorant or take stances based on memes and or maybe a blog post or two that you have read.

People killin' people dyin'
Children hurtin', I hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preachin'?
Would you turn the other cheek again?
Mama, mama, mama, tell us what the hell is goin' on
Can't we all just get along?
Father, father, father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me
