I Hate You
The Hoods Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel I'm lost to the world
Out of touch and far behind
Put my passion to the test
I feel I've lost it all

Look at me with hate in your eyes
A reflection of you is
What I feel inside all I've done and all I gave
Years have passed nothing?s changed

Now you'll walk alone
Now you'll walk alone

I hope the lesson you've learned
All these years of work
Now you'll walk alone




A loss of mind, family, love, respect
No respect

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Hoods's song I Hate You speak of a sense of inadequacy and failure, as well as resentment towards someone who has caused these negative feelings. The songwriter feels lost in the world, out of touch and far behind, and despite putting their passion to the test, they feel like they have lost it all. The second verse addresses someone who looks at the songwriter with hate in their eyes, which becomes a reflection of the songwriter's own negative feelings towards themselves. The chorus repeats the line "Now you'll walk alone" twice, which suggests that the person who has caused all this pain will now suffer the consequences of their actions, which may include a loss of family, love, and respect.


The song seems to be about the consequences of trying to compete against others and comparing oneself to them, which often leads to feelings of inadequacy and failure. The lyrics suggest that this is something that has been going on for years, and despite all the hard work, nothing has changed. The power dynamic in the song shifts towards the end, as the person who has caused all the pain is left alone to suffer the consequences.
