Pages and Prejudice Adrie Rose & Stitch

Hater’s Anthem by Infinity Song

I love the way it feels to be a hater

Something so sweet about thinking that I'm better

Just to wake up every morning

Lay in bed and somehow never, ever rise to the occasion

Or even hold up under pressure

But we all know that it doesn't even matter

If I waste away and no one thinks I'm clever

Just as long I've got my ego

And it tells me I'm superior

I could probably go a lifetime

Being barely mediocre

I'd still convince myself every time that I'm better
