Hater Family

Ah see, they say hatin' is hereditary, aha
Which means if yo daddy was a hater
And you mama is a hater, then yo broke-ass
Gonna be a hater, you hear?
It's just in your blood to obe one, man
But, it's cool 'cause i guess it's
All part of the game, you know
You feel me? Don't hate tho, look at this

Here's a story 'bout a nigga named Hate
Who lived next door to this cat named Great
See Great did everything Great that
He put his mind to
But Hate had a mind-state he was confined to
Had a chick named Misery
The neighborhood ho'
And the company she kept
You know how that go?
Me, I stayed on Prosperity
Street and Success Lane
Was taught comin' up in the
Streets to respect game
This nigga Jealousy was always telling me
How Envy don't like me envy wanna fight me
See Envy was a shiesty type a nigga
Who showed his discontent politely
Snake in the grass ass nigga that'd cross
You soon as he get the chance
Type a nigga that'd throw salt on your plans
Teamed up with Hate, tried to shit on Great
'Cause when you make it to the top
This is what you'll await with that said

You see
If you ever wanted to ever be anything
There'll always be somebody that'd
Shoot down any dream
There'll always be haters
Thats the way it is
Hater nigga marry hater bitches
And have hater kids
And they be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family

I studied the secret
Know the laws of attraction
Knew what the consequences were
For my actions
I laid the foundation but they acting
Like I didn't do nothing on my
Own to make this happen
Like, nigga was writing but I was rapping
(Damn) but everybody took the credit
When it happened (Why?)
And I'm almost dead, I can feel it though
But niggas catch feelings when they feeling
They ain't near you though
And there you go, your true colors show
He say, she say
It wasn't really nothing though
I'm still here, still down, still around
Lets do lunch this week 'cause next
Week I'm out of town (Damn, dawg)
Now they telling my mama he act different
(Why?) just cause my black berry
Went to my assistant (Okay)
But shit is wicked on these mean streets
Some of my friends sleep and ya'll
Trying to win but then again

If you ever wanted to ever be anything
There'll always be somebody that'd
Shoot down any dream
There'll always be haters
Thats the way it is
Hater nigga marry hater bitches
And have hater kids
And they be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family

You was on the outside looking in
But now you're on the inside looking out
And as you think back to the things you did
When you was trying to get on
No one helped you out
Now when you ride by the haters
(Look at the six)
And when you wave to the ladies
(Look at his wrist)
Now everybody need a favor (Listen to this)
My definition of a hater, that's what this is

If you ever wanted to ever be anything
There'll always be somebody that'd
Shoot down any dream
There'll always be haters
Thats the way it is
Hater nigga marry hater bitches
And have hater kids
And they be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family
It's gon' be one big hater family
