Be free, Be happy... Be yourself

It took me a long time in my life to accept myself
To understand who I was
Today I know who I am
And this is my story

They always told me I couldn't fall in love with a man
They always said what I felt was a sin
I lived thirty years in a lie
Living deceived, living without life
It was so sad how I felt
Religion messed with my head
Leaving me confused many times
Making me question
If what I felt was real
Or if it was just a lie

So for a long time, I tried to follow the rules
I looked, I tried to be with women
But I was always just the big friend to them
Men would look at me and desire me
And I always had to pretend I didn't like it
Because my pastor said it was dangerous
If you let yourself be led by your desires
The fire of hell is waiting for you
So watch out, brother
Don't accept those urges
You're a man, not a homosexual

Hey, you who've been through all this like I have
I'm here to tell you that you are normal
And there's nothing wrong with you
You can count on me
I cried so many times in my room
Asking God to change me
But he never did
Do you know why he didn't?
Because who I am
Isn't wrong at all

Then one day, I stopped and looked at myself
I didn't want to accept what they were telling me anymore
That I needed to change my way of being and speaking
That sometimes I had to stop being too flamboyant
That I had to deepen my voice
Wear manly clothes and hook up with all the women
Treat them like trash, because that's what a real man does

That's when I woke up and said to myself
This is not who I am
There's no point pretending and feeling inside
That what I felt for a man was real
I left that prison, religion doesn't control me anymore
I do what I want, I love a man and I'm happy
I wear what I want
I respect women
I live the life I always dreamed of

Hey, you who listened to me here
Know that you can and need to be happy
Don't let them make you feel
That what you feel isn't right
And that you must be unhappy loving a woman
If deep down what you really want is a man by your side (by your side)

Never let them tell you what you should do
Be free, be happy, be yourself

Hey, you who've been through all this like I have
I'm here to tell you that you are normal
And there's nothing wrong with you
You can count on me
I cried so many times in my room
Asking God to change me
But he never did
Do you know why he didn't?
Because who I am
Isn't wrong at all

Hey, you who listened to me here
Know that you can and need to be happy
Don't let them make you feel
That what you feel isn't right
And that you must be unhappy loving a woman
If deep down what you really want is a man by your side (by your side)

Never let them tell you what you should do
Be free, be happy, be yourself
