Same Love (Feat. Mary Lambert) - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
When I was in the 3rd 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
Tripping yeah
I guess she had a point didn't
she
A bunch of stereotypes all in my
head
I remember doing the math like
Yeah I'm good at little league
A pre conceived idea of what it
all meant
For those that like 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
pre disposition
Playing God
Ahh nah here we go
America the brave
Still fears what we don't know
And God loves all his children
it's somehow forgotten
But we paraphrase a book written
3500 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've become so numb to what
we're saying
Our 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 same hate that's caused
wars from religion
Gender to skin color
Complexion of your pigment
The same fight that lead people
to walk outs and sit ins
Human rights for everybody
There is no difference
Live on And be yourself
When I was in church
They taught me something else
If you preach hate at the service
Those words aren't anointed
And that Holy Water
That you soak in
Is then 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
We press play
Don't press pause
Progress march on
With a veil over our eyes
We turn our back on the cause
'Till the day
That my uncles can be united by
law
Kids are walkin' around 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 solve it all
But it's a damn good place to
start
No law's gonna change us
We have to change us
Whatever god you believe in
We come from the same one
Strip away the fear
Underneath it's all the same love
About time that we raised up
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
Love is patient love is kind
Love is patient love is kind
not crying on Sundays
Love is kind
not crying on Sundays
Love is patient
not crying on Sundays
Love is kind
not crying on Sundays
Love is patient not
crying on Sundays
Love is kind not
