| [00:15.89] |
When I was younger |
| [00:19.42] |
My daddy told me I would never |
| [00:23.33] |
Never amount to nothing special |
| [00:27.28] |
He'd come at me from every angle |
| [00:31.04] |
He'd say |
| [00:32.38] |
"You're the last thing I wanted, the last thing I need |
| [00:36.58] |
How am I gonna answer when my friends tell me |
| [00:40.06] |
My son was kissing boys in the street" |
| [00:47.95] |
He tried to change me |
| [00:50.14] |
Said I'm embarrassing my country |
| [00:54.46] |
How could I do this to my family |
| [00:58.31] |
Do I wanna grow up being lonely |
| [01:02.16] |
He'd say |
| [01:03.63] |
"We've worked for our money, we put you in school |
| [01:07.75] |
Is this how you repay us? Do you think this is cool? |
| [01:11.65] |
My son, stop kissing boys in the street |
| [01:18.67] |
My son, stop kissing boys in the street" |
| [01:42.58] |
Now that I'm older |
| [01:45.45] |
My daddy's heart's a little warmer |
| [01:49.48] |
But he still won't hug me like my brother |
| [01:53.20] |
And he still won't kiss me like my mother |
| [01:56.76] |
He'd say |
| [01:58.22] |
"You're a part of this family, I made you myself |
| [02:02.38] |
But the way that you act isn't good for your health |
| [02:06.27] |
My son, stop kissing boys in the street |
| [02:13.19] |
My son, stop kissing boys in the street" |
| [02:52.47] |
My daddy's dying |
| [02:55.15] |
And he's finally realized I'm not lying |
| [02:59.36] |
We sit in silence but we're smiling |
| [03:03.25] |
Because for once we are not fighting |
| [03:07.29] |
He said |
| [03:08.52] |
"There was no way of knowing 'cause all I was taught |
| [03:12.76] |
Is men only love women, but now I'm not sure |
| [03:16.34] |
My son, keep kissing boys in the street |
| [03:23.42] |
My son, keep kissing boys in the street |
| [03:31.46] |
When I'm gone, keep kissing boys in the street" |
