LoveHate Thing (Prod. By Sam Dew, Stokley & Tone P)
[Intro: Wale] Shout out to Marvin Gaye Love you then they hate you Then they love you again Hate you then they love you Then they hate you again
[Hook: Sam Dew] Hold me tight, let me go Heal my heart, hurt my soul Build me up, break me down Make me smile, make me frown Give me love, take it all away again Give me love, take it all away again
[Verse 1: Wale] Yeah, ain't no love in the heart of city, that's what they told me Beef with over 100 niggas, don't none of 'em know me Son of a mother studying at UDC Sitting in taxi cabs, where daddy roaming the streets Seven hallelujahs, my sutana was clean On everything I wear it, all the America's tees This whole system most prolific in the DMV Listen when you get the keys it's seldom, you don’t get the beef Make a nigga wanna get the piece to get to peace You gon' need more than Wikipedia to get to me PG to Mo County bet they all know about me Every hood, every 'burb, I got superb balance From the city that made me love you forever for it Hope you celebrate every moment forever ignore it You made me what I am, you made me what I'm not They gon' love you a little different when you at the top
[Bridge x2: Wale] Give me love, baby Not enough, not enough, just a touch, baby What the fuck, baby? It's just us, baby This ain't right, this is life This a love hate thing
[Hook: Sam Dew]
[Verse 2: Wale] Yeah, my affinty grows as the city gets cold As you reaching your goals, you gon' meet you some foes Having dinner with Leonsis I'm dreaming to own But for now me and my homies see the bottom floor I'm trying to redefine the culture, and renovate the soul Women in town, but I'm manifestating every goal I see potential in John, talk to him once a week Media targets in our city it ain't ever sweet I lost a lot of friends and they ain't even dead When I was on my way up, why you ain't see the stairs? Lord father if I opted to follow them My heart would tear from my dreams let me know that you here And it's rare when I'm anywhere with too many heads Niggas jealous and never tell it until they stare How could you blame us envy? We do the same thing for a living Know the same niggas, but they all commend me Champagne I'mma spill it until we all fill up Maybe it stopped me from giving a fuck about opinions And probably not, but I'm temporarily out of fizzucks So tell the post to leave propaganda to politicians
