Thank You for Hating Me Citizen Soldier

[Intro]
Thank you for hating me
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Thank you for hating me

[Verse 1]
I used to lose so much sleep over what you stole from me
But now the tables turned. I'm the lion, you're the sheep
You turned my vulnerability on me like a weapon (Oh-oh)
But taking knives in the back really taught me a lesson (Oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
I just wanna thank you
I just wanna thank you

[Chorus]
For beating me down, for messing me up
For making me feel I'm not enough
For running your mouth, for showing no love
For setting me off like a loaded gun
Thank you for making me
Stronger than I thought I could ever be
Thank you for hating me
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Thank you for hating me
