[Intro: Jump Smokers & (Mariah Carey)]
I hate you, I hate you
I can’t wait to break through (Oh, oh-oh)
‘Cause I love you, still love you
Can’t put nothing else above you
I hate you, I hate you
I can’t wait to break through (La la la)
MC on the track with the Jump Smokers (Oh, oh-oh)
Let’s show the world how we do

[Verse 1: Mariah Carey]
Once upon a time, we swore not to say goodbye
Something got a hold of us and we changed
Then you sat alone in pride
And I sat at home and cried
How'd our fairytale just end up this way?

[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey]
We went 'round for 'round 'til we knocked love out
We were laying in the ring, not making a sound
And if that's a mеtaphor of you and I
Why is it so hard to say goodbye?

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
I can't wait to hate you, make you pain likе I do
Still can't shake you off
I can't wait to break through these emotional changes
Seems like such a lost cause
I can't wait to face you, break you down so low
There's no place left to go
I can't wait to hate you

[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]
Ooh, this was a love phenomenon no one could explain
And I wish I could press reset and feel that feeling again
I sit and press rewind and watch us every night
Wanna pause it, but I can't make it stay

[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey]
We went 'round for 'round 'til we knocked love out
We were laying in the ring, not making a sound
And if that's a metaphor of you and I
Why is it so hard to say goodbye?

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
I can't wait to hate you, make you pain like I do
Still can't shake you off
I can't wait to break through these emotional changes
Seems like such a lost cause
I can't wait to face you, break you down so low
There's no place left to go
I can't wait to hate you

[Bridge: Mariah Carey]
No need to call my phone 'cause I changed my number today
And matter fact - I think I'm moving away (Away)
Sorry, the frustration's got me feeling that way
And I just keep having one last thing to say
And I just wanna hold you, touch you, feel you, be near you
I miss you, baby, baby, baby
I'm tired of tryin' to fake through
But there's nothing I can do
Boy, I can't wait to hate you

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
I can't wait to hate you, make you pain like I do
Still can't shake you off
I can't wait to break through these emotional changes
Seems like such a lost cause
I can't wait to face you, break you down so low
There's no place left to go
I can't wait to hate you, baby

[Outro: Mariah Carey]
I can't wait to H-A-T-E you
‘Cause right now I need you
Can’t wait to let you go

Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
