Haters Gonna Hate (That's Why Lovers Gotta love)
Copyright 2012 by Heather Rose Brown
This Friday I was talking to another transgendered person about a hate crime they had witnessed. I went home with an aching sadness and rage at the unprovoked violence. It wasn't until later while chatting with some friends that I heard someone say, "Haters gonna hate," to which I responded, "That's why lovers gotta love." After thinking about those two phrases last night, I woke up with the following song.

(sung like an R&B tune with just a hint of funk)
Haters gonna hate.
That's why lovers gotta love.
Listen to me.
Haters gonna hate.
That's why lovers gotta love.
There are too many hearts
filled up with hate today.
There's got to be more love
and that is why I say,
Haters gonna hate.
That's why lovers gotta love.
Sing it with me.
Haters gonna hate.
That's why lovers gotta love.
If you hate a hater,
then you're a hater too.
Respond to hate with love,
and that love will be true.
Haters gonna hate.
That's why lovers gotta love.
One more time now.
Haters gonna hate.
That's why lovers gotta love.
