Rap Away Hatred

I must let go of
the hatred you show
Because you want
nothing but
destruction
Wanting me to
feel like nothing
Who are you to
define who I am
I'm no punching bag
this feels so sad
Get a good grip
show love instead
Be worth something
no losing you head
Doing the things
you'll later regret
Why do you hate me?
What have I done?
To feel no love
inside me, I'm done
I'm running away
from this hell pay
Leave me alone
this hurt you've sewn
Take away this pain
I'm making this plain
Get off my back
quit this attack
You make me bleed
do I need to plead
Get away from me
I need to be free

Sounds quite angry at the end there. I agree with the theme, if only we could eliminate hate. Nicely expressed Holly.

Agreed. I like the tone up until the end. Good write. -- Wesley C.
