Note: The i tweaked the mix a little bit, sounds a little better now..
Okay so i started a little early on my pride track for this year. It was supposed to be uplifting and happy, but Alabama just passed a law very similar, and yet worse, than Florida's idiotic don't say gay bill. So i finished this up, and it's a little acerbic. It's pride weekend here in Mobile this anyway so I guess it's as a good a time as any!
With my complete and heartfelt apology to Anastacia...
Here’s to the ones that feel like they don’t belong,
That are looking for a reason to keep hanging on
You’ve got a friend in me and you know that it’s so
And together we are stronger than you will ever know
If there’s a way to stand out you’ll find it
When it’s your time to shine you will blind them!
Now there’s a word going ‘round they’re tryna shut us down
Cause we don’t act like the others in their country club towns
And they’re spreading lies, they try to dehumanize
But they’re just putting us down to bring their selves up high
And we’ll never back down, we’re gonna stand our ground
And we won’t shut up, we’re gonna shout out loud
It’s our life and we’re gonna live it
They don’t have what it takes to break our spirit,
There’s a word that they hate, but they’re gonna hear it,
We’re gonna sing it out loud today, that word is,,,
Now it seems insane, they have so much to gain,
When they create some kind of drama just to smear our name,
We all have fear, and we all have pain,
But a little understanding goes a long, long way
And we’ll never back down, we’re gonna stand our ground
And we won’t shut up, we’re gonna shout out loud
It’s our life and we’re gonna live it
They don’t have what it takes to break our spirit,
There’s a word that they hate, but they’re gonna hear it,
We’re gonna sing it out from up above, that word is,,,
LOVE!
Love is the answer
Love brings understanding
Love pulls us together
It’s a word so demanding
Love wins over hate
It always prevails
Love tolerates,
Love never fails!
Love is what guides us,
It’s a beacon that blinds us
It will always finds us
Love will unite us!
