[00:42.920] | When I was in the third grade I thought that I was gay, |
[00:45.670] | 'Cause I could draw,my uncle was,and I kept my room straight. |
[00:48.923] | I told my mom,tears rushing down my face |
[00:50.624] | She's like "Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k,trippin'" |
[00:55.398] | Yeah,I guess she had a point,didn't she? |
[00:57.198] | Bunch of stereotypes all in my head. |
[00:59.450] | I remember doing the math like,"Yeah,I'm good at little league" |
[01:02.751] | A preconceived idea of what it all meant |
[01:05.251] | For those that liked the same sex |
[01:06.851] | Had the characteristics |
[01:07.455] | The right wing conservatives think it's a decision |
[01:10.812] | And you can be cured with some treatment and religion |
[01:13.662] | Man-made rewiring of a predisposition |
[01:16.563] | Playing God,aw nah here we go |
[01:19.609] | America the brave still fears what we don't know |
[01:22.359] | And God loves all his children,is somehow forgotten |
[01:24.511] | But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago |
[01:28.925] | I don't know |
[01:30.325] | And I can't change |
[01:35.600] | Even if I tried |
[01:38.351] | Even if I wanted to |
[01:41.929] | And I can't change |
[01:43.630] | Even if I tried |
[01:46.632] | Even if I wanted to |
[01:50.755] | My love |
[01:51.105] | My love |
[01:51.456] | My love |
[01:52.206] | She keeps me warm |
[01:55.07] | She keeps me warm |
[01:57.858] | She keeps me warm |
[02:00.766] | She keeps me warm |
[02:05.319] | If I was gay,I would think hip-hop hates me |
[02:07.771] | Have you read the YouTube comments lately? |
[02:10.371] | "Man,that's gay"gets dropped on the daily |
[02:13.71] | We become so numb to what we're saying |
[02:14.872] | A culture founded from oppression |
[02:16.875] | Yet we don't have acceptance for 'em |
[02:19.226] | Call each other faggots behind the keys of a message board |
[02:21.277] | A word rooted in hate,yet our genre still ignores it |
[02:24.479] | Gay is synonymous with the lesser |
[02:27.727] | It's the same hate that's caused wars from religion |
[02:29.328] | Gender to skin color,the complexion of your pigment |
[02:32.181] | The same fight that led people to walk outs and sit ins |
[02:35.734] | It's human rights for everybody,there is no difference! |
[02:38.334] | Live on and be yourself |
[02:41.113] | When I was at church they taught me something else |
[02:43.414] | If you preach hate at the service those words aren't anointed |
[02:46.165] | That holy water that you soak in has been poisoned |
[02:48.915] | When everyone else is more comfortable remaining voiceless |
[02:51.717] | Rather than fighting for humans that have had their rights stolen |
[02:55.532] | I might not be the same,but that's not important |
[02:57.736] | No freedom till we're equal,damn right I support it |
[03:07.517] | (I don't know) |
[03:11.776] | And I can't change |
[03:14.77] | Even if I tried |
[03:16.980] | Even if I wanted to |
[03:20.581] | My love |
[03:21.532] | My love |
[03:21.882] | My love |
[03:22.433] | She keeps me warm |
[03:25.286] | She keeps me warm |
[03:28.136] | She keeps me warm |
[03:31.136] | She keeps me warm |
[03:36.236] | We press play,don't press pause |
[03:37.841] | Progress,march on |
[03:39.641] | With the veil over our eyes |
[03:41.141] | We turn our back on the cause |
[03:42.542] | Till the day that my uncles can be united by law |
[03:45.293] | When kids are walking 'round the hallway plagued by pain in their heart |
[03:48.345] | A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are |
[03:51.899] | And a certificate on paper isn't gonna solve it all |
[03:54.598] | But it's a damn good place to start |
[03:56.748] | No law is gonna change us |
[03:59.350] | We have to change us |
[04:00.650] | Whatever God you believe in |
[04:01.750] | We come from the same one |
[04:03.551] | Strip away the fear |
[04:04.501] | Underneath it's all the same love |
[04:06.252] | About time that we raised up |
[04:08.202] | And I can't change |
[04:13.627] | Even if I tried |
[04:16.376] | Even if I wanted to |
[04:19.477] | And I can't change |
