I will say this now, and I will say it for always I will shout it out so you can hear the echo down these hallways I will not be made to feel ashamed of this word that describes me I will not regret this word that made me feel, finally, free I will not let you trample this fire in my heart I will never forget that this is how I play my part I will not hear the screams of bigotry and hate I will never crash beneath that angry weight I will raise up my brothers, sisters, and those in between I will never let us go unspoken or unseen I will not let our importance be dashed against the rocks I will not let us be shoved aside into a dirty, dust-collecting box You say that you see us, that we have it okay But if that were true, then it would be legal to be gay You don’t understand, this pain that we’ve felt You don’t understand the flames of our anger, enough to make glaciers melt You will never understand, try as you might But that doesn’t mean your efforts are slight To my friends and my loves, to my wonderful beautiful doves Don’t you ever, ever give up your hope Reach out and we will all be your rope We will tether you to the ground upon which you firmly stand Together as one, all hand in hand To you who would hurt us, you who would see us gone You who would turn us away, like the fading night in the coming dawn You cannot beat us down or silence our cries We will always be there to take to the skies We are not weak, we are not small We have worth and have value, the lot of us, one and all So I say this now and I say it for always You cannot defeat us We are the rainbow after the rain The colors in the rising sun’s rays 0 players like this post!
