What's The T?

They look the same
From far away
Trans and gay
But still you say
That's not me
You shoot yourself in the foot
Just trying to put
Yourself first
Display the worst
Of the other side's fight
Trying to break free
Of the T
But GLB
Can never say 'we'
Are family
When we treat
Our kin
Like some sort of sin
That's what they've said to us
And all of a sudden
Stonewall is null and void
While we try to employ
Our deepest deny
Of the the first brick's flight
Thrown at Stonewall
From the hand that we call
A freak
From the hand of a queen
Dressed in drag
It's a fact
Worth remembering
And we are in her court
Try and move forth
Without her voice
And you'll fall flat
Just spinning your wheels
People, we need heels
To get ourselves from this mud
And be it Trans or AIDS
This is our blood
We must love
Ourselves before we can move
To a new
Day
Without these mistakes
So below us
This is a fight for love
Every kind we can get
And when it comes to the T
We cannot forget.
