[00:30.22]When I was in the third grade,I thought that I was gay
[00:33.18]Cause I could draw, my uncle was,and I kept my room straight
[00:36.19]I told my mom，tears rushing down my face
[00:38.44]She’s like “Sam ，you've loved girls since before pre-k,”
[00:42.06]Yeah, I guess she had a point, didn’t she?
[00:44.44]Bunch of stereotypes all in my head
[00:47.09]I remember doing the math like,
[00:48.64]“Yeah, I’m good at little league”
[00:50.14]A preconceived idea of what it all meant
[00:52.48]For those that liked the same ***
[00:54.27]Had the characteristics
[00:55.68]The right wing conservatives think it’s a decision
[00:58.37]And you can be cured with some treatment and religion
[01:01.14]Man made rewiring of a predisposition
[01:03.66]Playing god, aw nah， here we go
[01:06.55]America the brave still fears what we don’t know
[01:09.38]And god loves all his children, is somehow forgotten
[01:11.79]Yet we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago
[01:16.25]I don’t know
[01:17.06]And I can’t change
[01:22.27]Even if I tried
[01:25.11]Even if I wanted to
[01:28.07]And I can't change
[01:30.63]Even if I try
[01:33.43]Even if I wanted to
[01:37.21]My love
[01:37.80]My love
[01:38.37]My love
[01:38.90]She keeps me warm
[01:41.66]She keeps me warm
[01:44.50]She keeps me warm
[01:47.25]She keeps me warm
[01:51.21]Ask yourself, what kind of person do you wanna be
[01:53.92]And how many commandments are gonna rule how you think
[01:56.57]And do we really mean it,
[01:57.82]when we say he loves us all?
[01:59.45]And do we really believe it
[02:00.50]when they say that we’re created equal?
[02:01.91]Of course I do,
[02:03.31]I’m not a racist or an asshole
[02:05.06]Yet we can treat them less if their love is *******ual?
[02:07.67]Well rules are rules
[02:09.00]and the bible’s pretty clear here
[02:10.42]Yeah we know, we get it,
[02:11.57]but we don’t live by procedure
[02:13.07]We decide what’s right by what’s right,not what’s written
[02:15.83]We evolve past our outdated norms and dispositions
[02:18.72]We don’t exclude people based on footnotes of exodus
[02:21.67]Like my friend Haley who loves both of her dads
[02:24.13]You want to tell her their love is different?
[02:25.68]You want to make that distinction?
[02:27.13]You want to tell her that thisbeautiful and limitless thing that we call love
[02:30.36]Has rules and a proper way to do it
[02:32.61]And that their love is less love
[02:34.05]because an old book don’t approve it?
[02:35.35]I guess here’s how I see it
[02:37.01]You got a heart beat like mine
[02:38.21]Probably get that same feeling when your fingers intertwine
[02:41.11]Well mi love es su love.
[02:42.45]Same heart. Same love
[02:43.90]About time we raise up same ***
[02:46.77]Love is patient
[02:49.42]Love is kind
[02:52.24]Love is patient
[02:54.77]Love is kind
[02:56.97]And I can’t change
[02:59.52]Even if I tried
[03:02.37]Even if I wanted to
[03:06.02]My love
[03:06.63]My love
[03:07.13]My love
[03:07.79]She keeps me warm
[03:10.64]She keeps me warm
[03:13.40]She keeps me warm
[03:16.20]She keeps me warm
[03:20.42]Press play, don’t press pause
[03:23.14]Progress, march on
[03:24.60]With the veil over our eyes
[03:26.15]We turn our backs to the cause
[03:27.70]Till the day that my uncles can be united by law
[03:30.28]When kids are walking ‘round the hallway plagued by pain in their  hearts
[03:33.59]A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are
[03:36.15]And a certificate on paper isn’t gonna change it all
[03:39.09]But it’s a damn good place to start
[03:41.84]So it’s time that we stand without a doubt or concession
[03:44.71]Rather than sitting here gridlocked in oppression
[03:47.36]We all raise our voices, til they're too loud to ignore
[03:50.16]Singing songs of acceptance
[03:52.28]Thank you, Macklemore
[03:52.86]And I can’t change
[03:57.84]Even if I tried
[04:00.70]Even if I wanted to
[04:03.60]And I can't change
[04:06.15]Even if I try
[04:08.90]Even if I wanted to
[04:12.70]My love
[04:13.31]My love
[04:13.61]My love
[04:14.38]She keeps me warm
[04:17.12]She keeps me warm
[04:19.88]She keeps me warm
[04:22.84]She keeps me warm
[04:25.81](I‘m not crying on Sundays)
[04:27.86]Love is patient
[04:29.50]Love is kind
[04:31.16](I‘m not crying on Sundays)
[04:33.05]Love is patient
[04:35.10]Love is kind
[04:36.75](I‘m not crying on Sundays)
[04:38.31]Love is patient
[04:40.42]Love is kind
[04:43.40]Love is patient
[04:46.11]Love is kind
