[00:42.93] | When I was in the third grade I thought that I was gay |
[00:45.32] | ‘Cause I could draw, my uncle was, and I kept my room straight |
[00:48.90] | I told my mom tears rushing down my face |
[00:51.44] | She’s like “Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k tripping,” |
[00:55.51] | Yeah, I guess she had a point, didn’t she? |
[00:57.55] | Bunch of stereotypes all in my head. |
[00:59.79] | I remember doing the math like, “Yeah, I’m good at little league” |
[01:02.77] | A preconceived idea of what it all meant |
[01:05.66] | For those that liked the same sex |
[01:06.95] | Had the characteristics |
[01:08.35] | The right wing conservatives think it’s a decision |
[01:10.04] | And you can be cured with some treatment and religion |
[01:13.87] | Man made rewiring of a predisposition |
[01:16.41] | Playing god, aw nah here we go |
[01:19.84] | America the brave still fears what we don’t know |
[01:22.58] | And god loves all his children, is somehow forgotten |
[01:25.02] | But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago |
[01:28.16] | I don’t know |
[01:30.05] | And I can’t change |
[01:32.21] | |
[01:35.63] | Even if I tried |
[01:38.71] | Even if I wanted to |
[01:41.50] | I can't change |
[01:43.94] | Even if I try |
[01:46.73] | Even if I wanted to |
[01:50.81] | My love |
[01:51.40] | My love |
[01:51.70] | My love |
[01:52.45] | She keeps me warm |
[01:55.09] | She keeps me warm |
[01:57.87] | She keeps me warm |
[02:00.76] | She keeps me warm |
[02:05.44] | If I was gay, I would think hip-hop hates me |
[02:08.33] | Have you read the YouTube comments lately |
[02:10.97] | "Man, that’s gay" gets dropped on the daily |
[02:13.40] | We become so numb to what we’re saying |
[02:15.84] | A culture founded from oppression |
[02:17.63] | Yet we don’t have acceptance for ‘em |
[02:19.28] | Call each other faggots behind the keys of a message board |
[02:21.91] | A word rooted in hate, yet our genre still ignores it |
[02:24.75] | Gay is synonymous with the lesser |
[02:27.69] | It’s the same hate that’s caused wars from religion |
[02:30.19] | Gender to skin color, the complexion of your pigment |
[02:33.17] | The same fight that led people to walk outs and sit ins |
[02:35.46] | It’s human rights for everybody, there is no difference! |
[02:38.59] | Live on and be yourself |
[02:41.39] | When I was at church they taught me something else |
[02:44.08] | If you preach hate at the service those words aren’t anointed |
[02:47.16] | That holy water that you soak in has been poisoned |
[02:49.90] | When everyone else is more comfortable remaining voiceless |
[02:52.69] | Rather than fighting for humans that have had their rights stolen |
[02:55.88] | I might not be the same, but that’s not important |
[02:58.62] | No freedom till we’re equal, damn right I support it |
[03:01.11] | |
[03:11.91] | And I can’t change |
[03:14.20] | Even if I tried |
[03:17.33] | Even if I wanted to |
[03:21.01] | My love |
[03:21.56] | My love |
[03:21.96] | My love |
[03:22.71] | She keeps me warm |
[03:25.50] | She keeps me warm |
[03:28.59] | She keeps me warm |
[03:31.27] | She keeps me warm |
[03:34.61] | |
[03:36.40] | We press play, don’t press pause |
[03:38.59] | Progress, march on |
[03:40.03] | With the veil over our eyes |
[03:41.43] | We turn our back on the cause |
[03:42.92] | Till the day that my uncles can be united by law |
[03:45.56] | When kids are walking ‘round the hallway plagued by pain in their heart |
[03:48.94] | A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are |
[03:51.98] | And a certificate on paper isn’t gonna solve it all |
[03:54.81] | But it’s a damn good place to start |
[03:57.70] | No law is gonna change us |
[03:59.49] | We have to change us |
[04:00.78] | Whatever god you believe in |
[04:02.08] | We come from the same one |
[04:03.38] | Strip away the fear |
[04:04.78] | Underneath it’s all the same love |
[04:06.27] | About time that we raised up |
[04:08.51] | And I can’t change |
[04:10.34] | |
[04:13.77] | Even if I tried |
[04:16.56] | Even if I wanted to |
