Don't Hate
Don’t hate, appreciate
Be careful what you write in the bathroom stall
You might just want to make that person fall
Fall, fall on their knees
Next thing you know they are tempted to squeeze
Squeeze, pull that trigger
And then their depression starts getting bigger
People can’t figure out why
Why, why was she crying?
What was so bad she felt like dying?
Then you begin to look back
Think if the time you took off that pen cap
It was the scratch of your pen
You writing out your own dividends
Your own proportions of hate
That sent that beautiful girl to the pearly white gates
Be careful what you write on the bathroom door
Slut, B****, skank and whore
You never know next that name could be yours
