Same Love - Madh[00:00:01]
Written by:Ben Haggerty/R. Lewis[00:00:02]
When I was in the 3rd grade[00:00:11]
I thought that I was gay[00:00:12]
Cause I could draw my uncle was[00:00:14]
And I kept my room straight[00:00:15]
I told my mom tears rushing down my face[00:00:17]
She's like Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k[00:00:19]
Trippin' yeah I guess she had a point didn't she[00:00:22]
A bunch of stereotypes all in my head[00:00:25]
I remember doing the math like[00:00:28]
Yeah I'm good at little league[00:00:29]
A pre-conceived idea of what it all meant[00:00:31]
For those who like the same sex had the characteristics[00:00:34]
The right-wing conservatives think it's a decision[00:00:36]
And you can be cured with some treatment and religion[00:00:39]
Man-made rewiring of a predisposition[00:00:42]
Playing god[00:00:45]
Ahh nah here we go[00:00:46]
America the brave[00:00:48]
Still fears what we don't know[00:00:49]
And god loves all his children[00:00:51]
Is somehow forgotten[00:00:52]
But we paraphrase a book written[00:00:53]
35 hundred years ago[00:00:55]
I don't know[00:00:57]
And I can't change[00:00:58]
Even if I tried[00:01:01]
Even if I wanted to[00:01:04]
My love my love my love[00:01:08]
He keeps me warm[00:01:09]
He keeps me warm[00:01:12]
He keeps me warm[00:01:15]
He keeps me warm[00:01:18]
If I was gay[00:01:22]
I would think hip-hop hates me[00:01:23]
Have you read the YouTube comments lately[00:01:25]
Man that's gay[00:01:28]
Gets dropped on the daily[00:01:29]
We've become so numb to what we're sayin'[00:01:30]
Our culture founded from oppression[00:01:33]
Yeah we don't have acceptance for 'em[00:01:34]
Call each other faggots[00:01:36]
Behind the keys of a message board[00:01:37]
A word routed in hate[00:01:39]
Yet our genre still ignores it[00:01:40]
Gay is synonymous with the lesser[00:01:42]
It's the same hate that's caused wars from religion[00:01:44]
Gender and skin color[00:01:47]
Complexion of your pigment[00:01:48]
The same fight that lead people to walk-outs and sit-ins[00:01:50]
It's human rights for everybody[00:01:53]
There is no difference[00:01:54]
Live on and be yourself[00:01:56]
When I was in church[00:01:58]
They taught me something else[00:01:59]
If you preach hate at the service[00:02:01]
Those words aren't anointed[00:02:03]
And that holy water[00:02:04]
That you soak in[00:02:05]
Is then poisoned[00:02:06]
When everyone else[00:02:07]
Is more comfortable[00:02:08]
Remaining voiceless[00:02:09]
Rather than fighting for humans[00:02:10]
That have had their rights stolen[00:02:11]
I might not be the same[00:02:13]
But that's not important[00:02:14]
No freedom 'til we're equal[00:02:15]
Damn right I support it[00:02:17]
I don't know[00:02:19]
And I can't change[00:02:20]
Even if I tried[00:02:23]
Even if I wanted to[00:02:26]
My love my love my love[00:02:30]
He keeps me warm[00:02:31]
He keeps me warm[00:02:34]
He keeps me warm[00:02:37]
He keeps me warm[00:02:40]
We press play[00:02:45]
Don't press pause[00:02:45]
Progress march on[00:02:47]
With a veil over our eyes[00:02:48]
We turn our back on the cause[00:02:50]
'Till the day[00:02:51]
That my uncles can be united by law[00:02:52]
Kids are walking around the hallway[00:02:54]
Plagued by pain in their heart[00:02:56]
A world so hateful[00:02:57]
Someone would rather die[00:02:58]
Than be who they are[00:02:59]
And a certificate on paper[00:03:00]
Isn't gonna solve it all[00:03:02]
But it's a damn good place to start[00:03:03]
No law's gonna change us[00:03:06]
We have to change us[00:03:07]
Whatever god you believe in[00:03:09]
We come from the same one[00:03:10]
Strip away the fear[00:03:12]
Underneath it's all the same love[00:03:13]
About time that we raised up[00:03:15]
And I can't change[00:03:17]
Even if I tried[00:03:19]
Even if I wanted to[00:03:22]
My love my love my love[00:03:26]
He keeps me warm[00:03:28]
He keeps me warm[00:03:31]
He keeps me warm[00:03:33]
He keeps me warm[00:03:36]
Love is patient love is kind not cryin' on Sundays[00:03:40]
Love is patient love is[00:03:47]
