We have forgotten
What was fought in
Case you were wondering yes
To your question
My generation has forgotten
What was fought in
The 80s by our people
All the needles
Are forgotten
But we must stop them
From what got them
Confused about the truth
Of what AIDS looks like
What it does to a life
Because so many young gays
Take way
Like...way
More than one pill a day
For pains
They aren't having
So to them grabbing
One more for health, hell
Might as well
Bare ride that tight
Ass all night
Because somewhere they were told
In the voices of cold
Enemies of us
All we do us fuck
And shoot up
Thats life for us
Thats what were told
And we hold
Onto those views
Fathers warn you to stay
Away from those gays
Lord knows one day
They'll try and fuck you
But fathers never take
Back what they say
When some day
His son says he's gay
They mostly stay
silent, away
we fear the mistake
We've just made
Because maybe
Father spoke the truth
Ten years in the future
And a boys now a man
Trying to plan
His life with a man
But don't think he can
Because he's supposed to be a slut
And sluts don't wear condoms
And nor does the truth
It speaks to you
From the past
From the fast
Times of the 80s
Where our people crashed
Into each other and dissolved
My peers aren't involved
In their story
Don't realize the glory
Of a life without the shock
Of loss after loss
While each of the best
People met death
And you wait for your own
They feel so alone
Not knowing the home
That used to be our community
They have no more unity
Aside from one common thing
Not what you'd think
Not gay
But the way
They behave
As a result of what someone they loved told them
About them
About us
The truth they need to hear
Is clear
We stand united and accept them in
To a group all the better because of them
And we care that they stay
Even if they
Dont want to play
In some naughty way
There's more to us than
What only one man
Can do with one man
It's what we can do
As a group
And what we can prevent
With a sense
That's unified
And fight
Together
Which is a word
Seldom heard
But needed.
