Seems like everyday gets a little bit longer Seems like yesterday, I was a little but stronger But there ain't nothin', nothin' I can't do but to hold my ground Try not to come unwound, don't wanna be let down But it ain't easy, no it ain't easy Doin' hard time for somebody else's crime Hate is what got me here Love, sweet love is gonna set me free All the hatred in the world is what got me here today But I know that love is gonna set me free Man I've been away for so long now I ain't seen no daylight for God knows how long now I come out fightin' when I hear that bell ring, I always hear my name But I'd love to feel that rain come down one more time Wash away my pain, love like a hurricane Hate is what got me here Love, sweet love is gonna set me free All the hatred in the world is what got me here today But I know that love is gonna set me free Gonna set me free, set me free Gonna set me free, set me free Set me free, gonna set me free Set me free, oh, no no no, no no no no no Ooh, hate is what got me here Love, sweet love is gonna set me free All the hatred in the world is what got me here today But I know that love is gonna set me free Hatred is what got me here today But love, sweet love is gonna set me free I ain't tryin' to appeal to just your mind Just little part of your humanity, love will set you free
