My daddy tried to teach me with the backside of his land
Wherever life will take me there’s things that make a man
These holy lies, my mother cries, my only hope as times went by
To learn it on my own, leave this fearful home

The third thing is you’re all alone
Keeper of your fate
The second thing is the holy book
But at first...
At first I learned to hate!

My mother tried to raise me, to be a honest man
A savior she could not be, just swallowed up the pain
She closed her eyes, a wasted life, my father’s sins, my mother died
She left me all alone, the seed of hate was born

The third thing is you’re all alone
Master of your fate
The second thing is the holy book
But at first...
At first I learned to hate!

The first thing that you’ve done to me, father
Was my procreation day

And at first...
I learned to hate
