HATERS
Possibly my personal favourite track on the whole record for personal reasons. Haters is an anthem to anyone who has gone against the grain and come out the other side with a smile on their face.
Some people I knew growing up had that attitude like they were better than the rest of us. And now the focus is no longer on them so they want to be best mates and apart of our journey.
Treat people how you want to be treated. Success is not defined by your financial status, but how you carry yourself when you are in a position to make a difference.
If people are hating on you, it means you are doing something right. And to be honest, there have been plenty of times where negative comments have done my head in in the past.
But you grow and you learn to use the negativity as fuel to keep your dream train steaming ahead.
So while the petty haters whinge in their mundane hometowns, I'm on a flight from Sydney to Vancouver for my first even Canada tour.
At the end of the day, who gives a fuck what the haters say!
lyrics
VERSE 1
SIPPIN’ ON MY RIDER
CHILLIN’ BACKSTAGE WITH MY BRO’S
IF I START TO GIVE A SHIT
I WOULDN'T EVEN DO THESE SHOWS
BUT I HEAR EM’ SCREAMING,
THEY YELLING OUT LIKE
(WHOA OHH)
AND I KNOW YOU HEAR EM,
YOU WANNA YELL LIKE
(WHOA OHH)
FIRE STICKS N STONES AND
YOUR WORDS BEHIND MY BACK
YOU CAN SEE IT IN MY SMILE I WON'T REACT
COS AT THE END OF THE DAY
WHO GIVES A FUCK WHAT THE HATERS SAY
CHORUS
WHOA, WHOA OH
WATCH HOW YOU ROLL
IT'LL COME BACK TO YOU ONE DAY
IT ALL COMES BACK TO YOU ONE DAY
VERSE 2
ITS LIKE THE HIGHER I RISE, I'M HEARING MORE LIES
COS THEN THEY SAY
I WASN'T SURPRISED, THAT YOU'D TOUCH THE SKIES
AND I REPLY
MADE MISTAKES WITH THE FAKE HANDSHAKES
BUT NOW THINK TWICE BOUT’ MOVES I MAKE
AND EVERYTHING YOU SAY, CARE FACTOR (ZERO)
HOW YOU LIKE ME NOW, SLUM DOG TURNED (HERO)
FIRE STICKS N STONES AND
YOUR WORDS BEHIND MY BACK
YOU CAN SEE IT IN MY SMILE I WON'T REACT
COS AT THE END OF THE DAY
WHO GIVES A FUCK WHAT THE HATERS SAY
CHORUS
BRIDGE
KICK ME, PUNCH ME
DISS ME, CRUNCH ME
SPIT ON ME, TALK SHIT ABOUT ME
BUT DON'T YOU FUCKIN’ JUDGE ME
WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT MY JOURNEY
WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT MY JOURNEY
I SEE YOU KEEP TRYNNA BRING ME DOWN
BUT YOUR SO FAR BELOW THAT IT DON'T CONCERN ME
LOOK AT ME, I'M L.T.D.
LIVING THE DREAM WHILE YOU'RE TIME WASTING
TIME TO GET NEW HATERS COS OLD HATERS LIKE ME
AT THE END OF THE DAY
WHO GIVES A FUCK WHAT THE HATERS SAY
CHORUS (X2)
