Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm walking on the ceiling
I'm still building home again
At 2 AM and you're sleeping
Came up with the trophy on my body
Calibrate, couldn't say, "I'm sorry!"
(Shine, shine, shine, shine)
OK, I'm a piece of shit, you caught me
But you can't pretend that you don't love me
(Shine, shine, shine, shine)
She said, "I hate you" by the way
With a smile on her face
She said I'm usually not her type
I guess the rules they don't apply
She said, "I hate you" by the way
With a smile on her face
She said I'm usually not her type
I guess the rules they don't apply
Quick look comming
I think I'm loosing my phone
Where'd you go, where'd you go
Nothing funny but a fashion
Dinner ever fell before
She said, "I hate you" by the way
With a smile on her face
She said I'm usually not her type
I guess the rules they don't apply
She said, "I hate you" by the way
With a smile on her face
She said I'm usually not her type
I guess the rules they don't apply
(She said, "I hate you" by the way) Where did you go?
(With a smile on her face) Where did you go?
Where did you go?
The lyrics of "Hate u btw" by rence paint a complex picture of a tumultuous relationship filled with contradiction and mixed emotions. The opening lines, "I sit on my tongue again, I'm walking on the ceiling, I'm still building home again, At 2 AM and you're sleeping," set the tone for inner conflict and uncertainty. The singer seems to be holding back their true feelings, struggling to find their place in a relationship that feels unsteady and unsettled.
The following lines hint at a sense of self-awareness and regret, with references to coming up with a trophy on their body and struggling to apologize. The repetition of "Shine, shine, shine, shine" could suggest a desire to move past mistakes and find a way to still shine in the midst of imperfection. There is a recognition of being flawed, but also a plea for acceptance and love despite these flaws.
The chorus of the song, where the singer repeats the phrase "She said, 'I hate you' by the way, With a smile on her face," reflects the complexity of the relationship dynamics. The juxtaposition of hate and a smile hints at a love-hate relationship or perhaps a push-pull dynamic where strong emotions are present but not always expressed in a straightforward manner. The mention of not being the usual type and rules not applying adds layers to the narrative, suggesting a sense of unpredictability and defiance of norms.
The latter part of the lyrics introduce a sense of confusion and disorientation, with references to losing a phone and searching for someone. The repeated question of "Where did you go?" adds to the feeling of uncertainty and longing for clarity or connection. The chorus is repeated once again, reinforcing the themes of conflicting emotions and the struggle to make sense of a complex relationship.
Overall, "Hate u btw" delves into the complexities of love, hate, self-awareness, and longing for acceptance in a relationship that is marked by contradiction and unpredictability. The lyrics capture the rollercoaster of emotions that can come with loving someone who brings out both the best and worst in oneself, leaving the singer grappling with their feelings and the uncertainties of the relationship.

@RenceMOV
nice!
@vrealitygaming7088
This is great Rence!!! I can hear the emotion and the build up is amazing! Found this on Spotify and can't stop listening. You're going to blow up if you keep releasing songs/hooks this catchy. 0:58 when everything comes together is brilliant. Only feedback I have is to get a better quality camera and some really cool video editing done versus the simple overlays, your view count will skyrocket once you get high quality production in your video.
Edit: Just watched your video 'expensive' with Noah Cyrus. That's exactly the type of production quality I'm talking about that would blow this up to 500k-2 million views for sure. Btw, that song is super good due. Don't listen to people telling you to get a vocal coach, you're doing good just work within your range and find your sound which it sounds like you have.
