Lyrics:
Haters always on my back, can't seem to shake them off
Talking all that smack, acting like they're so tough
But they don't know me, don't know where I've been
They don't know the struggle, they don't know the win
I rise above the hate, don't let it get me down
I use it as my fuel, I wear it like my crown
I'm focused on my mission, I'm chasing all my dreams
They can talk all they want, but I know what it means
I know I'm not perfect, but I'm doin' my best
I won't let their hate put my mind to the test
I'll keep on moving forward, with my head held high
I'll leave them in the dust, as I reach for the sky
Haters...
Haters can't stop me, I'll run this town
Haters gonna hate, that's just a fact
I'll keep grinding, I won't ever slack
They talk behind my back, but never to my face
I know they're just jealous, they can't keep up the pace
I still have hope, even when it's hard to see
I still have faith, that there's a better destiny
I won't give up, I'll keep on believing
I still have hope, and that's what keeps me breathing
Haters...
Haters can't stop me, I'll run this town
