When I Was In The Third Grade I Thought That I Was Gay,
Cause I Could Draw, My Uncle Was, And I Kept My Room Straight.
I Told My Mom, Tears Rushing Down My Face
She's Like "Ben You've Loved Girls Since Before Pre-K, Trippin'."
Yeah, I Guess She Had A Point, Didn't She?
Bunch Of Stereotypes All In My Head.
I Remember Doing The Math Like, "Yeah, I'm Good At Little League."
A Preconceived Idea Of What It All Meant
For Those That Liked The Same Sex
Had The Characteristics
The Right Wing Conserves Think It's A Decision
And You Can Be Cured With Some Treatment And Religion
Man-Made Rewiring Of A Predisposition
Playing God, Aw Nah Here We Go
America The Brave Still Fears What We Don't Know
And "God Loves All His Children" Is Somehow Forgotten
But We Paraphrase A Book Written Thirty-Five-Hundred Years Ago
I Don't Know

And I Can't Change
Even If I Tried
Even If I Wanted To
And I Can't Change
Even If I Tried
Even If I Wanted To
My Love
My Love
My Love
She Keeps Me Warm
She Keeps Me Warm
She Keeps Me Warm
She Keeps Me Warm

If I Was Gay, I Would Think Hip-Hop Hates Me
Have You Read The YouTube Comments Lately?
"Man, That's Gay" Gets Dropped On The Daily
We Become So Numb To What We're Saying
A Culture Founded From Oppression
Yet We Don't Have Acceptance For 'Em
Call Each Other Faggots Behind The Keys Of A Message Board
A Word Rooted In Hate, Yet Our Genre Still Ignores It
Gay Is Synonymous With The Lesser
It's The Hate That's Caused Wars From Religion
Gender To Skin Color, The Complexion Of You Pigment
The Same Flight That Led People To Walk Outs And Sit Ins
It's Human Rights For Everybody, There Is No Difference!
Live On And Be Yourself
When I Was Church They Taught Me Something Else
If You Preach Hate At The Service Those Words Aren't Anointed
That Holy Water That You Soak In Has Been Poisoned
When Everyone Else Is More Comfortable Remaining Voiceless
Rather Than Fighting For Humans That Have Had Their Rights Stolen
I Might Not Be The Same, But That's Not Important
No Freedom 'Til We;re Equal, Damn Right I Support It
(I Don't Know)

And I Can't Change
Even If I Tried
Even If I Wanted To
My Love
My Love
My Love
She Keeps Me Warm
She Keeps Me Warm
She Keeps Me Warm
She Keeps Me Warm

Love Is Patient
Love Is Kind
Love Is Patient
Love Is Kind
(Not Crying On Sundays)
Love Is Patient
(Not Crying On Sundays)
Love Is Kind
(I'm Not Crying On Sundays)
Love Is Patient
(Not Crying On Sundays)
Love Is Kind
(I'm Not Crying On Sundays)
Love Is Patient
(Not Crying On Sundays)
Love Is Kind
(I'm Not Crying On Sundays)
Love Is Patient
Love Is Kind

This Song Makes Me Tear Up Everytime, This Is So Meaningful. I Just Love It, This Song Is Amazing. I Love It Because It Sends A Message, People Who Think It's WRONG To Like The Same Gender, It's Not. If You Know Anyone Who Thinks It's Wrong, Please Try To Help Them Think It's Alright. It's A Very Important Thing, And I Support It 100% I Hope You Got The Message And Enjoyed It! Have A Good Day, Take Care.
