Jesus fucking Christ

Wish I could say it was the same difference if you're straight or gay

But they make us choke on the words that we say

And I'm so red-faced that it kills me to love

So we ask for some help from the one up above

Just to be told that he doesn't approve

And I wish the right would take a step into our shoes

Whether you're white, black, cis, trans, the resolution's

We'll all stand up and we'll start the revolution!

It's the same difference

So don't try to make it way different

You have to understand it's the way we were raised different

It's the same difference

Whether you're enslaved in the racism

Or if you were enslaved, it's the same system

It's the same difference

I'm not making no mistakes

Shit is hateful out there in these chains and restraints

It's the same difference

And right now hate's winning

So let's get all the people for the same difference

Right, so first thing you should know about me is that I'm merry

And I'll howl, even Simon Cowell couldn't put me down, so I'm shook

Because all the shit that's going down around us

Is history repeating you won't find in a textbook

'Cause they don't teach the facts to us, like this land was stolen

And TJ lied and said that we're created equal

And I'll tell everyone to wake up and smell the roses

But the cognitive dissonance might just be lethal

I'll find you in the sequel and then tell you that we are simply people

Oppressed until the people say it's legal

Beat me up, might as well 'cause I'm going to hell

But I'll carry the torch for all the unequal

And the rain'll pour down over all our parades

But that can't bring you down, can't sit through all the evil

We'll keep going on until we've had our say

Cleared that mountain like the Evel Knievel

It's the same difference

So don't try to make it way different

You have to understand it's the way we were raised different

It's the same difference

Whether you're enslaved in the racism

Or if you were enslaved, it's the same system

It's the same difference

I'm not making no mistakes

Shit is hateful out there in these chains and restraints

It's the same difference

And right now hate's winning

So let's get all the people for the same difference

And they say a gay relationship on TV

Will immediately hurt all the children in the building

Then there's a killing in a building with them kids in it

And all they'll do is sit back, but that's not what's "the same difference"

Same difference if you're blind or you're seeing 20/20

Same difference if you're poor or you got a lot of money

Same difference if you're shooting up a school, think it's funny?

It's the same difference if you're voting Trump 2020!

It's the same difference! I'm so fucking tired of saying it

I'm tired of having to remind all of them that

It's the same difference! Who do you think you are?

Someone who lives in harmony or fights over the stars?

It ain't the same difference in this society's opinion

But it should be, we should be exercising our love

It's the same difference underneath, but fighting in the streets

Means there ain't no peace, no olive branch doves

It's the same difference

So don't try to make it way different

You have to understand it's the way we were raised different

It's the same difference

Whether you're enslaved in the racism

Or if you were enslaved, it's the same system

It's the same difference

I'm not making no mistakes

Shit is hateful out there in these chains and restraints

It's the same difference

And right now hate's winning

We're all people, it's the same difference!

And we keep marching!

Carry the torch for all the unequal even though we're all the same people

Homophobia, America

Xenophobia, America

Sexism, America

Racism, America

And it's the same difference...
