about

pursuit of hate

how I wrote the music/how I wrote the lyric/sounds behind/making of videos available on my YT channel for every song from the record :)

lyrics

I have fallen victim to some dim-witted hate
These bursts of jealousy are nothing more than bait
To make me go down that road of self-doubt
But we gotta see you assholes for who you really are

Haters gonna hate
If I were you I’d beware
Or with envy you’ll suffocate

Succumbing to illusion you can judge it all
The lack of any talent is your downfall
The tragedy’s that it’s your only delight
Crushing dreams and feeding off of it like some parasite

Haters gonna hate
If I were you I’d beware
Or with envy you’ll suffocate

Everyone can detest
But only selected few
With talent of creation blessed
Shamelessly reviewed by you

Pathetic scum
Frustrated and depressed
Look what you’ve become
Mentally grotesque

And in reality
You’re my biggest devotees
Admiring everything I touch
And hiding it in grudge

solo (Lukáš)

Haters gonna hate
If I were you I’d beware
Or with envy you’ll suffocate
If I were you I’d beware
Or with envy you’ll suffo…
