Same *** marriage
We realize
Isn’t acceptable in
Some folks eyes
They view it as unholy
And also unwise
But it’s homophobia
That we should despise

Who are we to say
Who they should love
There’s only one judge
And it’s God above

Same *** couples
Share a common bond
With other lovers
Who correspond
To love’s imperative
That has spawned
A feeling that’s deep
And goes far beyond

Who are we to say
Who they should love
There’s only one judge
And it’s God above

Who give us
The right to say
What they should do
Anyway
If there’s a penalty
For them to pay
We won’t sit in judgment
On their judgment day

Who are we to say
Who they should love
There’s only one judge
And it’s God above

Those who oppose
LGBT
Simply because
They disagree
Have a right
To their opinions
But that doesn’t mean
They have dominion

Who are we to say
Who they should love
There’s only one judge
And it’s God above
