mx wander - i was a man lyrics
[verse]
i always wanted to be
one of the boys
but you wouldn’t catch me
playing with no boy toys
i performed perfectly
pointed my toes to the beat
and no one knew just quite
what was wrong with me
i didn’t understand
why i couldn’t be a man
once my chest grew
it got all of the attention
so i quickly learned
that’s all i was good for
i was dancing, and screaming, and singing, and f+cking
and building all the walls up tall
i knew all along
there was something so wrong
started questioning everything
maybe this wasn’t really me
never new my trans history
thе aids epidemic
the lavеnder scare
cross+dressers and butches
fairies, and dyk+s
studs, boys, twinks, and queens
never new how genitals don’t f+cking mean
what’s in your heart
what’s in your heart
all the kink and the leather
the queers and the f+ggots
the bricks thrown in windows
the protests and riots
[pre+chorus]
we are powerful
and we take up sp+ce
i had to unlearn
all of the fake sh+t
[chorus]
the whole time
i was a man
the whole time
i was a man
the whole time
i was a man
the whole time
i was a man
the whole time
i was a man
the whole time
i was a man
the whole time
i was a man
the whole time
i was a man
[outro]
the whole time
whole time
whole time [we are powerful / and we take up sp+ce]
whole time [i had to unlearn / all of the fake sh+t]
we are powerful
and we take up sp+ce
i had to unlearn
all of the fake sh+t
