being gay

I come from a very religious family.
They’re all homophobic.
They don’t like gays.
They think there’s something wrong with them.

I’m coming out the closet.
I’m letting the world know what I am.
I’m gay!
You heard what I said.
I don’t need any meds.
No pill is going to change me.
I’m proud to be gay!

I know my family won’t accept me,
But that’s fine though.
I don’t need their criticism.
I’ll be as open as I want to.

I’m gay!
There’s nothing wrong with that.
I won’t let religion break me down.
I’m going to be me.
No one can change that.
