I started working on this song in June after I heard Sufjan Stevens’ songs for pride, but I couldn’t quite get my song right until now. Anyway, you can shout TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS no matter what month it is!
lyrics
Lyrics:
I’m beginning to learn my lesson, sometime I’ll be the best me
Starting to know who am I and who I’m supposed to be
It’s not easy to do, sometimes I feel like goo
It’s not hard to accept, keeping an open mind is the first step
TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS
I carve a little space, I deserve to have my own place
No one can take it from me, you can come over when you’re free
No need to worry or cry, punch a fascist in the eye
Just sing the chorus loud and clear, it’s time for everyone to hear
TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS
You can be yourself, you’re you!
I’m me and to say frankly
TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS
There’s no maybe or might
TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS
Let’s take back the night
You can be yourself, you’re you!
I’m me and let’s all be free
There’s not just women, and there’s not just men
Gender’s fluid, now you understand
