Intro-
dudd    dudd 
D  Bm*  G  D*  x2
D                            Bm
When I was in the third grade 
I thought I was gay
G  
'Cause I could draw  
D
An' my uncle was  
and I kept my room straight
D              Bm
I told my mom 
tears rushing down my face
G            
She's like "Ben you've 
D
Loved girls since before 
D       
Pre-k," trippin'
Bm
Yeah I guess she had a point 
G
Didn't she?
D
Bunch of stereotypes 
all in my head 
D                    Bm
I remember doing the math like  
"Yeah I'm good at little league"
G                D
A preconceived idea of 
what it all meant
D                            Bm
For those that liked the same sex
had the characteristics
G                 D
The right wing conservatives 
think it's a decision
D                   Bm
And you can be cured 
with some treatment and religion
G                  D
Man made rewiring of a predisposition
D          Bm
Playing god,  aw nah here we go
G            D
America the brave still fears 
what we don't know
D                 Bm
And god loves all his children
is somehow forgotten
G                    D
But we paraphrase a book written 
-stop
Thirty-five-hundred years ago
I don't know
D      Bm   G   D
And I can't change
D      Bm
Even if I tried
G       D
Even if I wanted to
D      Bm
And I can't change
G      D
Even if I try
D         Bm
Even if I wanted to
G        G        D
My love, my love, my love
D    Bm
She keeps me warm
G   D
She keeps me warm
D     Bm
She keeps me warm
G     D
She keeps me warm
D           Bm
If I was gay, 
I would think hip-hop hates me
G               D
Have you read the 
YouTube comments lately
D             Bm
"Man, that's gay" 
gets dropped on the daily
G            D
We become so numb
to what we're saying
D                        Bm
A culture founded from oppression
yet we don't have acceptance for 'em
G                      
Call each other faggots
D 
Behind the keys of a message board
D                Bm
A word rooted in hate, 
yet our genre still ignores it
G                   D
A gay is synonymous with the lesser
D                 
It's the same hate 
Bm
That's caused wars from religion
G                   D
Gender to skin color  
the complexion of your pigment
D                       Bm
The same fight that led people 
to walk outs and sit ins
G                         D
It's human rights for everybody
there is no difference!
D       Bm
Live on,  and be yourself
G
When I was at church 
D
They taught me something else
D                         Bm
If you preach hate at the service 
those words aren't anointed
G                       D
That holy water that you soak in
has been poisoned
D            Bm                        
When everyone else is more comfortable
remaining voiceless
G                       D 
Rather than fighting for humans 
that have had their rights stolen
D                      Bm
I might not be the same
but that's not important
G                      D
No freedom till we're equal  
damn right I support it
D  Bm*  G  D* 
D  Bm*  G  D*
D      Bm
And I can't change
G      D
Even if I try
D         Bm
Even if I wanted to
G        G        D
My love, my love, my love
D    Bm
She keeps me warm
G   D
She keeps me warm
D     Bm
She keeps me warm
G     D
She keeps me warm
D           Bm
And press play  
don't press pause
G           D
Progress, march on
D
With the veil over our eyes
Bm
We turn the back on the cause
G  
Till the day that my uncles 
D
Can be united by law  
D
When kids are walking 'round the hallway 
Bm
Plagued by pain in their heart
G                                  D
A world so hateful some would rather die 
than be who they are
D                   Bm
And a certificate on paper 
isn't gonna solve it all
G                             D
But it's a damn good place to start
D                      Bm
No law is gonna change us
we have to change us
G                         D
Whatever god we believe in
we come from the same one
D                 Bm
Strip away the fear
G 
Underneath it's all the same love
D
About time that we raised up
D      Bm   G   D
And I can't change
D      Bm
Even if I tried
G       D
Even if I wanted to
D      Bm
And I can't change
G      D
Even if I try
D         Bm
Even if I wanted to
G        G        D
My love, my love, my love
D    Bm
She keeps me warm
G   D
She keeps me warm
D     Bm
She keeps me warm
G     D
She keeps me warm
D       Bm
Love is patient
G       D
