Grace Petrie - Pride lyrics
[Grace Petrie - Pride lyrics]
Well we're a long way from the Stonewall Inn
I'm standing on this platform
No one's stopping me to sing
But there's a multitude of sins
That can hide behind your hashtag
Tell me again how love wins
Well there's nothing new about this rage
It's a war that's always waged
Like how no one bats an eye
That when fifty of us die and it
It doesn't even make the
Daily Mail front page
Well sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
Yeah sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
But, I'm right by your side
And that's what we call pride
And I know you don't want to face the fact
That each and every day
We're still being attacked
And sometimes it's by guns
And sometimes it's by words
And sometimes it's by the
North Carolina Bathroom Act
And yet, we're the same as everyone
We're all under the same sun
But, if you're trying to suggest
This is just about the West
We've spent our whole lives looking down
The barrel of that gun
And sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
Yeah sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
But, I'm right by your side
And that's what we call pride
And the love we have each other
Will defeat the hate we suffer
You're my sisters, brothers
And all that's in between
And if everything that I'm made of
Was fashioned by your God above
It was Him that gave this kind of love to me
But sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
Yeah sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
Oh sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
But, I'm right by your side
Oh, I'm right by your side
And that's what we call pride
And that's why we need pride
I'm standing on this platform
No one's stopping me to sing
But there's a multitude of sins
That can hide behind your hashtag
Tell me again how love wins
Well there's nothing new about this rage
It's a war that's always waged
Like how no one bats an eye
That when fifty of us die and it
It doesn't even make the
Daily Mail front page
Well sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
Yeah sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
But, I'm right by your side
And that's what we call pride
And I know you don't want to face the fact
That each and every day
We're still being attacked
And sometimes it's by guns
And sometimes it's by words
And sometimes it's by the
North Carolina Bathroom Act
And yet, we're the same as everyone
We're all under the same sun
But, if you're trying to suggest
This is just about the West
We've spent our whole lives looking down
The barrel of that gun
And sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
Yeah sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
But, I'm right by your side
And that's what we call pride
And the love we have each other
Will defeat the hate we suffer
You're my sisters, brothers
And all that's in between
And if everything that I'm made of
Was fashioned by your God above
It was Him that gave this kind of love to me
But sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
Yeah sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
Oh sometimes, it's like an uphill climb
But, I'm right by your side
Oh, I'm right by your side
And that's what we call pride
And that's why we need pride
