LOVE::HATE

"when my story’s told, how will they tell it? /
will they say I was a giver or will they say I was selfish /
will they say I was a sinner or pretend I was a saint"

How will they label me? Usually I paint my thoughts in controversial verbiage, but the message is intended for the simple minded. I've been challenged, tested, mislead and lied to, and still I rise. I've shared the little I have, not expecting anything in return, yet they continue to consume and diminish me, without a care...


"will I go down as a winner, whats the picture they gon paint /
wouldn’t say that I’m a quitter thats one thing I know I aint /
will they tarnish, will they taint? /
glorify me, overthink, say they know me, say I’m great /
say I’m phoney, I was fake /
say the things about me they never told me to my face /
I was loved I was hated /
just a n-gga with a dream" - J.Cole
