When I was a kid I learned of battles past
And, I did believe the battles were all past
�All people are equal,� they said before
What, did they get bored of that?
�Cause they don�t preach that anymore
What�s this crap for?
Every generation ends up having to fix their parents� mistakes
They find it�s easier to destroy than to create
It�s hard not to see that freedom will win in the end
So, won�t it just be easier to not get into this crap again?
People tell me about all the rights I�m given
I say, go tell it to someone who isn�t a lesbian
�Cause I can�t get through a single day
Without hearing a certain slang term I�d rather not say
When people tell me I�m given equal rights with a smile
I have to ask, �Then why can�t I walk down the aisle?�
Often I�m told
The reason lies in tales of old- that�s interesting
