I Lyrics by Taproot

Gift

2000

[Verse 1]
I'm seeing tunnel vision in a world that's dark and cold
I can't believe how much I've changed since the days of old
I know, it's temporary but I need to focus straight
I can't believe I lost control of my fate
I need forgiveness from the people I truly care about
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out
I'm gonna win, I can't afford to blow this one

[Pre-Chorus]
I hate myself, sometimes I love myself
I need this way of life because it holds me

[Chorus]
I hate myself sometimes, I love myself
If contradiction's the way of life
Happiness is wealthiness is healthy

[Verse 2]
Now that I've made it through those lies and deceit
I think what's done is done and I can't complain anymore
I am sure that I have found myself again, it feels great
I can't believe I'd lost control of my fate
I need forgiveness from the people I truly care about
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out
I'm gonna win, I can't afford to blow this one

[Pre-Chorus]
I hate myself sometimes, I love myself
I need this way of life because it holds me

[Chorus]
I hate myself sometimes, I love myself
If contradiction's the way of life
Happiness is wealthiness is healthiness
I hate myself sometimes, I love myself
If contradiction's the way of life
Happiness is wealthiness is healthiness

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
I hate myself sometimes, I love myself
If contradiction's the way of life
Happiness is wealthiness is healthiness
I hate myself sometimes, I love myself
If contradiction's the way of life
Happiness is wealthiness is healthiness
