But I find it to be true and grand,
You can’t hate someone,
You understand.
Now believe me when I say,
The Hate will not just go away.
“Hate is a strong word” they all rejoice,
But Hate is not an emotion, but a feeling, and a choice.
I would say hate is a double-edged sword, but that would be a lie,
Hate is all the risk with no reward,
Let me tell you why:
You take two strangers,
Who have nothing but hate in their hearts,
Put them in the same room,
They’ll tear each other apart.
You take those same strangers at different points in life,
Before the sorrow, before the anger,
Before the hate and the strife,
You make them know each other,
Hoping that’ll do them right,
Then they don’t even think about a fight.
See the hate they felt wasn’t at each other,
The hate they felt was,
A burden of pain they had to muster.
Hate is a single etched sword,
And it’s pointed at the wielder
So when you feel hate,
Lend out a hand
Because it’s hard to hate
Someone you understand.
