PRIDE 2021 (feat. GRAYCE)

From the library of Congress in Washington DC
Having to lie, I feel
Is the saddest, and
The ugliest part
Of being a homosexual
People in the park, the women and men

Yes we kissed and we danced at the party but
I'm not
And I held her hand as we crossed the lobby but
I'm not
And I think you'll find I've fallen in love with my own kind
But
Not
Not me, oh my

And then I realized
That all the things that
Are taught you
Not only just by society
But by psychiatrists
Is to put you in a mold
And I just
Rejected the mold
And when I rejected the mold
I was happier

It's easier to stay afloat than
Stir shit up
They could take your pride and
Tare it up
Better not to know than to
Bring it up
It feels so close with I could
Scream it out

We're tired of hiding in our mind
Concealing all of our pride
Locking up the truth
Cause it's easier to lie

Do you think that homosexuality
Should be legalized completely
Definitely, definitely
Do you think that you are happier now
That you know exactly
Where your feelings are?
Indeed, I'm just sorry that I took so long
I'm sorry that I spent too many years in the closet

Yes we kissed and we danced at the party but
I'm not
And I held her hand as we crossed the lobby but
I'm not
And I think you'll find I've fallen in love with my own kind
But
Not
Not me, oh my

It's beautiful, it's fantastic
How many years have you been a homosexual?
I was born homosexual
It's beautiful
Has the new movement given you an added pride, or
Added incentive?
Yes
Tell me how you feel about being here today

I try to map the scene out in my head
Find the things I wanna say
But when I stand up
And I get ready to tell
Only shit comes out

People are scared
Cause he's more feminine
The glitter on his eyes is the evidence
I am not afraid
To be the one to say that
You're opinion is irrelevant

I think it's great
I think it's really dynamite
And I think the only way to achieve it
Is through force
And marches like this

I said I'm tired of hiding in my mind
Concealing all of my pride

This has been a presentation
By the library of Congress

Say it loud
Gay and proud
Say it loud
Gay and proud
Say it loud

Because if two homosexuals
Can live together and thrive
