June

It’s finally happening to me
The thing I just had to believe
It will be seven years in June
I know my time is coming soon
I told her everything I know
I told her daddy where to go
I let her drink my mama’s wine
I never was allowed to shine
But hold on, just hold on, hold on, just hold on
She took me to her parents' faith
I stared their God right in the face
He asked me if I knew his name
«Mother,» I said without a shame
There’s something you should know right here
Might not be gay but sure am queer
We would be married in six weeks
I’m not afraid to say «defeat»
But hold on, just hold on, hold on, just hold on
(Hold on, just hold on)
Freedom is just another word
But words are for more than being heard
Wishing you good life and good health
I’ve got to go and be myself
It’s finally happening to me
The thing I was afraid to believe
It took me seven years to bloom
I knew my time was coming soon
But hold on, just hold on, hold on, just hold on
(Hold on, just hold on)
Hold on, just hold on, hold on, just hold on
(Hold on, just hold on)
Hold on
