Lyrics Hate On Me - Jill Scott

If I could give you the world on a silver platter
Would it even matter?
You'd still be mad at me
If I could find in all this a dozen roses
Which I would give to you
You'd still be miserable

In reality, I'm gon' be who I be
And I don't feel no fault for all the lies that you bought
You can try as you may, break me down but I say
That it ain't up to you
Gon' and do what you do

Hate on me hater, now or later
'Cause I'm gonna do me
You'll be mad baby (go head and hate)
Go head and hate on me hater
I'm not afraid of what I gotta pay for
You can hate on me

Ooh, if I gave you peaches out my own garden
And I made you a peach pie, would you slap me out?
Wonder if I gave you diamonds out of my own womb
Would you feel the love in that? Or ask why not the moon?

If I gave you sanity for the whole of humanity
Have all the solutions for the pain and pollution
No matter where I live, despite the things I give
You'll always be this way, so go head and hate

Hate on me hater, either now or later
'Cause I'm gonna do me (I'm gonna do me)
You'll be mad baby (go head and hate)
Go head and hate on me hater
I'm not afraid of what I gotta pay for
You can hate on me

Hate on me hater, either now or later
'Cause I'm gonna do me (I'm gonna do me)
You'll be mad baby (go head and hate)
Go head and hate on me hater
I'm not afraid of what I gotta pay for
You can hate on me

You cannot hate on me 'cause my mind is free
Fill my destiny, so shall it be
You cannot hate on me 'cause my mind is free
Fill my destiny so shall it be

You cannot hate on me, hater ('cause my mind is free)
Now or later (fill my destiny)
'Cause I'm gonna do me (so shall it be)
You'll be mad baby

You cannot hate on me (go head and hate on me hater)
'Cause my mind is free (I'm not afraid of)
Fill my destiny (what I gotta pay for)
So shall it be
You can hate on me (you cannot hate)
