The Hate Is Real lyrics

by

Ice-T


[Intro]
The words echo America's long and painful history of telling citizens of color they do not belong here
Is the president a racist?
We live in fear every single day
But we never know what can happen to us because of our skin color
Get the f*ck out of this country!
Go back to Israel!
Back to Mexico!
Essentially, it normalizes hate, and makes it acceptable

[Chorus]
The love is fake
But the hate is real
The love is fake
But the hate is real

[Verse 1]
I got your back
I never lie
Save that sh*t
I've heard that bullsh*t before
My loyalty cannot be matched
Save that sh*t
I've heard that bullsh*t before
I'd ride for you
I'd die for you
Save that sh*t
I've heard that bullsh*t before
I'm there for you
I care for you
Save that sh*t
I've heard that bullsh*t before
[Verse 2]
When someone hates you, please believe this sh*t's real
They wish you bad luck
They wish you bad health
They want to see you sick, miserable and in pain
They want to see you choke
They want to see you broke
The hate is real, it's uncut, it's pure
It's not rare, it's easy to find
Ignorance breeds hate, hate breeds war
Been that way since the beginning of time

[Chorus]
The love is fake
But the hate is real
The love is fake
But the hate is real

[Verse 3]
I hate racists, so I'm guilty too
I'm from L.A. where the red try to kill the blue
I'm from the place where the kids hate the f*ckin' cops
(Kids hate the f*ckin' cops)
Where the street violence never stops
Hate is jealousy but some's deeper than that
The hater wants you gone
Dead on your back
Love ain't always fake but I don't trust it
Hate will have you killed and won't discuss it
[Chorus]
The love is fake
But the hate is real
The love is fake
But the hate is real

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
The love is fake
But the hate is real
The love is fake
But the hate is real

[Outro]
When somebody tells you they love you
That could be just a figure of speech
They might like you, they might be cool with you
But when somebody hates you
That sh*t is real
They f*cking hate you
