[Chorus]
We got a fucked up reason to live
Who really gives a fuck?
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna fuck you up

I wanna break everything
I wanna make it sting
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna wake it up

You gotta get it straight
We're gonna give it up
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna fuck you up

I wanna break everything
I wanna make it sting
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna wake it up

[Verse 1]
I am the burden of my everything
An open scar
I'll be reborn in hatred
Feeling I can't love no more

I've had to suffer
I cannot wait for more
No loving and no praying
All my hate is for the taking

[Chorus]
We got a fucked up reason to live
Who really gives a fuck?
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna fuck you up

I wanna break everything
I wanna make it sting
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna wake it up

You gotta get it straight
We're gonna give it up
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna fuck you up

I wanna break everything
I wanna make it sting
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna wake it up

[Verse 2]
I am the falling of my happiness
It is no more
Stop loving, I'm still hating
Till I cannot hate no more

I've had to suffer
I cannot wait for more
No loving and no praying
All my hate is for the taking

[Bridge]
I'm, I am filthy wasted piece of shit
I am disgusting, take me away

[Chorus]
We got a fucked up reason to live
Who really gives a fuck?
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna fuck you up

I wanna break everything
I wanna make it sting
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna wake it up

You gotta get it straight
We're gonna give it up
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna fuck you up

I wanna break everything
I wanna make it sting
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna wake it up

We got a fucked up reason to live
Who really gives a fuck?
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna fuck you up

I wanna break everything
I wanna make it sting
We're gonna wake up hate
We're gonna wake it up

Korn

Bakersfield friends James “Munky” Shaffer, Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu and David Silveria formed the funk-rock band LAPD in 1989 and moved to Los Angeles with another friend Brian “Head” Welch as their roadie. Later, with Welch as second guitarist, the band named themselves Creep and recorded a demo with pal Ross Robinson.

However, when Shaffer and Welch visited family in Bakersfield, they met Jonathan Davis who added a darker, goth-tinged edge to the band’s heavy groove. Robinson

The band wasn’t dark yet; it had, like, killer grooves and good riffs, but there was some happy edge to it. And when (Davis) walked into the room, it went dark and goth. Basically, during the first song, to audition in the rehearsal room, he started freaking the hell out [laughs]. You couldn’t hear his voice, but you felt chills all over your body, and it was instantly like, “Oh my God, yeah – he’s the one.”
