thank God

You said: "Just pray. Maybe it'll go away.

It isn't possible that God made you that way."

So I prayed every day

But my feelings stayed the same

The part of me you shame is something I can't change

Now oooh

I'm finally feeling wild and free from you

And I've never been more happy

So thank God for when I came out

Cuz the man I am now

Woulda told that boy look up

And thank God for pulling me out

When I thought I would drown

And I lost myself in that old town

And how I never thought I could love myself

Till now

Never thought I'd be sayin'

Thank God for making me proud

Of who I am now

He opened the clouds

And I came out

And I came out

You said: "Someday you'll realize it's just a phase.

Doesn't matter how you feel;

Cowboys don't love that way."

But you don't love me how He loves me

You don't see the things I see

You don't believe that maybe different ain't a bad thing to be

So thank God for when I came out

Cuz the man I am now

Woulda told that boy look up

And thank God for pulling me out

When I thought I would drown

And I lost myself in that old town

And how I never thought I could love myself

Till now

Never thought I'd be sayin'

Thank God for making me proud

Of who I am now

He opened the clouds

And I came out

And I came out

(Oh, yeah, thank God)

And I came out

(I can just be myself)

So thank God

Oh, yeah

(Cuz I set my colors free)

When I came out
