8 Zipp - Hate Be Real

The hate is real wen it come from the closet people
Sometimes these niggas be around you just to feel equal
The pain they injected me wit I bet its more lethal
Wonder why certain niggas die in the rain
The street will teach you
You suppose to be low key if you out here selling kilos
Where I'm from we was taught to carry it like it's legal
Everyday it's a roll at the dice and I ain't playing cello
Lord forgive me for my sins
Please cover me from the evil
They hate to see me winning
I see em faking the love
It hurts more wen y'all come from the same mud
Look wat the pain does
I feel it in my soul wen the rain comes
Like betrayal coming straight from a day one
Watch who round you
If it ain't adding up give em some distance
Ya gifts in the present they couldn't relate to Christmas
Gotta manage ya company before they get in ya business
Ever seen ya man's name in ya discovery as a witness
If you listen closely
You better move low key
Cause they don't wanna see you eat without they own piece
You should value ya time way more then you value rollies
I done seen stars in they prime get turned to trophies
Too many died in the rain
Head shot couldn't imagine the pain
Left in the streets as a permanent stain
Til this day they can't remember his name
So watch what the streets teach you
And be careful on who you be letting reach you
The hate is real wen it come from the closet people
Sometimes these niggas be around you just to feel equal
The pain they injected me wit I bet its more lethal
Wonder why certain niggas die in the rain
The street will teach you
You suppose to be low key if you out here selling kilos
Where I'm from we was taught to carry it like it's legal
Everyday it's a roll at the dice and I ain't playing cello
Lord forgive me for my sins
Please cover me from the evil
The hate is real wen it come from the closet people
Sometimes these niggas be around you just to feel equal
The pain they injected me wit I bet its more lethal
Wonder why certain niggas die in the rain
The street will teach you
