Call Me

Call me queer, call me cocksucker But is my sexual life really that important to you? I don't call you cunt-cuffin, pussy eater, nor hetero freak So why must I be insulted for my sex life while you remain unscathed? Call me faggot all you want, But let's be honest, my life isn't easy But I'm still here My heart still beats I'm still strong Call me fairy to your little heart's content But answer me this, could your heart bare the abuse of every kind  for almost a decade? Could your "holy" self withstand standing alone in the dark without so much as a friend? I'm a "sinner" and I've withstood all those horrors and still came out strong Call me a disgrace, an abomination, a freak But answer this you pretentious bastard, Who's the one cursing people, condemning, hating, discriminating them for being nothing more than who they are? That's right, you, not me So think again, who's your god going to punish? People who have done nothing wrong but be themselves? Or the ignorant fools who think they are God and condemn others? Call me faggot, call me queer I know who I am, and it's someone strong Call me cocksucker, call me fairy I'm the one who will survive Call me all you want, It won't change who I am
