Analysis of Where Did The Hate Generate
Why do we hate? Why did we let it generate?
Where did it start?
Do we have no love in our hearts? Why do we choose to join the crowd?
It's not right for hate to be screamed so loud.
Why do we hate one another?
In God's eyes, we are all sisters and brothers.
Why does the world revolve around suffering and pain?
Not everyone is going to be the same.
People getting killed for the beliefs. Why don't we just give up in defeat?
We steal because it's expensive. People are becoming very defensive.
Don't you want to live in a better world?
Step out of the foggish swirl.
Hate is something we've learned. Acceptance is not something that needs to be earned.
When you make fun of someone smaller,
It doesn't make you look any taller. Hate is a very strong word.
But for some of us, that's all we've heard.
It's time for us to step up to the plate.
Learn to love, not hate.
