PARADISE FEARS "Same Love" 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 “Sam you've loved girls since before pre-k ” 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 conservatives 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 try 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 Ask yourself what kind of person do you wanna be And how many commandments are gonna rule how you think And do we really mean it when we say he loves us all And do we really believe it when they say that we're created equal Well of course I do I'm not a racist or an asshole Yet we can treat them less if their love is homosexual Well rules are rules and the bible's pretty clear here Yeah we know we get it but we don't live by procedure We decide what's right by what's right not what's written We evolve past our outdated norms and dispositions We don't exclude people based on footnotes of exodus Like my friend Haley who loves both of her dads You want to tell her their love is different You want to make that distinction You want to tell her that this beautiful and limitless thing that we call love Has rules and a proper way to do it And that their love is less love because an old book don't approve it I guess here's how I see it You got a heart beat like mine Probably get that same feeling when your fingers intertwine Well mi love es su love Same heart Same love About time we raise up same sex Love is patient Love is kind Love is patient Love is kind 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 Press play don't press pause Progress march on With the veil over our eyes We turn our backs to the cause Till the day that my uncles can be united by law When kids are walking 'round the hallway plagued by pain in their heart A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are And a certificate on paper isn't gonna change it all But it's a damn good place to start So it's time that we stand without a doubt or concession Rather than sitting here gridlocked in oppression We all raise our voices til they're too loud to ignore Singing songs of acceptance Thank you Macklemore And I can't change Even if I tried Even if I wanted to And I can't change Even if I try 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 (I'm not crying on Sundays) Love is patient (I'm not crying on Sundays) Love is kind (I'm not crying on Sundays) Love is patient (I'm not crying on Sundays) Love is kind Love is patient Love is kind编辑于2021/03/20更新
