Lil B - I Hate Myself Lyrics

Don't want the world to see me
Don't think that they'd understand
Everything's meant to be broken
Want you to know who I am

My lifetime came from struggle
All I've seen is what I follow
My skin color, automatic transaction
I'm already classified, no second chance
Taught to feel nappy hair, little grade
Why can't I sag when it's just a style
Little beard, black hoodie, and I'm all good
People judge before they even know me
Stare at me, don't know I'm lonely
Outside's from these stares from police
And I get the bad rep because another man
That just looks like me
Think life's a movie like Spike Lee
Too cool like Ice T
Yeah, I move with Life's Peace
And he move with the gun piece
So there's no peace
I gotta go to the hood, all I see is
Divided, the freshest schizophrenics
Men pimping women, people losing vision
Given choices before she started living
I hate myself

I see myself in the mirror
But I don't see nothing
If you understand what I'm seeing
Please tell me something
When you black, the media make you wonder why
I just need my history, because I hate myself

It makes me sad to see pimping
Like I'm at a battle with my surroundings
Everybody do it, but not really
And I couldn't imagine my momma
Universal knowledge is karma
I see young girls hanging off the corner
And they searching for love
In the wrong space gave her mind to a pimp
Now he's changing faces
Sometimes I just wish I could trade places
I hate myself for being taught
The rules of the hood
Which don't matter, no respect and no love
Ain't got jail for the real thugs
And I'm sorry to all the innocent in prison
You get a second chance when
You free or in heaven
I promise if you really love
And you watch your steps
Respect everybody, man you will get blessed
Get your point across without violence
The black dying by the gun
I'm tired of crying i hate myself

For real man
This been in my heart for a long time
And if you understand
Please tell me something
When you black, the media make you wonder why

I'm ready to give up my old thoughts
I'mma move past what I saw
I'mma do what I want and be happy
I'm not gon' rob or kill to survive
Everything I've seen was a lie
I'm not ready to die, I love myself
I said, everything that I've seen was a lie
I'm not ready to die, I love myself
Break that mental

You know we are free now man
Break that, uh, mental blockage
Don't think too hard, free your mind
