[00:11.150]When I was younger [00:14.250]My daddy...
[00:11.150]When I was younger
[00:14.250]My daddy told me I would never
[00:18.740]Never amount to nothing special
[00:22.820]He'd come at me from every angle
[00:26.970]He'd say, "You're the last thing I wanted, the last thing I need
[00:32.650]How am I going to answer when my friends tell me
[00:36.420]My son was kissing boys in the street
[00:44.670]My son was kissing boys in the street?
[00:52.960]He'd try to change me
[00:56.170]Say I'm embarrassing my country
[01:00.370]How could I do this to my family
[01:04.560]Do I wanna grow up being lonely
[01:08.820]He'd say, "We have worked for our money
[01:12.100]We've put you in school
[01:14.010]Is this how you repay us?
[01:16.290]Do you think this is cool?
[01:18.250]My son, stop kissing boys in the street
[01:26.450]My son, stop kissing boys in the street
[01:33.630]
[01:51.670]Now that I'm older
[01:54.790]My daddy's heart's a little warmer
[01:58.930]But he still won't hug me like my brother
[02:03.080]And he still won't kiss me like my mother
[02:07.240]He'd say, You are part of this family
[02:10.630]I made you myself
[02:12.600]But the way that you act isn't good for your health
[02:16.940]My son, stop kissing boys in the street
[02:24.980]My son, stop kissing boys in the street"
[02:34.040]Uhhh...
[02:50.660]Ohh...
[03:06.240]My daddy's dying
[03:09.470]But he's finally realized I'm not lying
[03:13.390]We sit in silence but we're smiling
[03:17.540]Because for once, we are not fighting
[03:21.800]He'd say, "There was no way of knowing
[03:25.060]'Cause all I was taught
[03:27.150]Is men only love women, but now I'm not sure
[03:31.310]My son, keep kissing boys in the street
[03:39.410]My son, keep kissing boys in the street
[03:47.630]When I'm gone, keep kissing boys in the street"
