Love Me or Hate Me

Love Me or Hate Me

A Poem by Thorne Empire

Love me or hate me, I don’t give a damn

If you love me, I’m in your heart

If you hate me, I’m in your head

Either way, I rise, I'm always ahead

 

I rise, I rise, I'm always ahead

I rise, I rise, I'm always ahead

 

They talking s**t, but they ain’t built like me,

I'm a different breed, check the pedigree,

Talking like you know me, but you ain’t been where I’ve been,

I'm a soldier in the shadows, built from deep within.

 

My mind's a battlefield, I'm fighting to survive,

Try to break me, but I always rise.

Love me or hate me, it’s your choice,

But in the end, I’m the one with the loudest voice.

 

Love me or hate me, I don’t give a damn

If you love me, I’m in your heart

If you hate me, I’m in your head

Either way, I rise, I’m always ahead

 

I rise, I rise, I'm always ahead

I rise, I rise, I'm always ahead

 

Every scar I carry, I wear it like a crown,

Don't matter what you say, I’m never backing down.

I'm the beast you created, now you're stuck in my game,

Love me or hate me, you will repeat my name.

 

Love me or hate me, it don’t matter to me,

In the end, it's all the same.

You can’t stop what’s meant to rise,

I’m at the top, you can see it in your eyes.

 

Love me or hate me, I don’t give a damn

If you love me, I’m in your heart

If you hate me, I’m in your head

Either way, I rise, I’m always ahead

 

I rise, I rise, I'm always ahead

I rise, I rise, I'm always ahead

 

I rise, I rise, I'm always ahead

I rise, I rise, I'm always ahead
