The Hate U Give

I think that the sky is falling
The world is finally coming crash down
Been running but my purpose calling
I'll be safe inside this secret place I found
Water sprinkle on my face
Fire dancing on the flowers while they bloom
Destroyed it, didn't leave a trace
Once it's broken you can't fix it with the glue
You get what you give
That's the way we go through life
Gotta own up to your actions cause we can't go back in time
Don't think it doesn't matter cause your actions ain't benign
Use my platform like I'm mighty number 9, it's a sign

What goes up eventually it gotta come down
They say love makes the world go round and round
Be careful who you let around your energy
Some people wanna take your smile and turn it upside down
What goes up eventually it gotta come down
They say love makes the world go round and round
Be careful who you let around your energy
Some people wanna take your smile and turn it upside down

I did some bad in my life
But I ain't never took no life
So now I gotta make things right
Had a few dreams in the pipe
Something had to spark that light
And I had to keep things tight
I can see the futures bright
Taste just like a sunny delight
I been trynna turn some lives around for real
Ghost the whip I let Jesus take the wheel
Can't stop the feeling trynna find my Jessie Biel
Butter fly but I had to cater peel
You get what you give
How you live yeah
All the things you did
I forbid yeah
Look at all my hate
Not a trace
Cause I know my soul at stake
I may bend but never break

What goes up eventually it gotta come down
They say love makes the world go round and round
Be careful who you let around your energy
Some people wanna take your smile and turn it upside down
What goes up eventually it gotta come down
They say love makes the world go round and round
Be careful who you let around your energy
Some people wanna take your smile and turn it upside down
