When I Went To War

When I went to war I was

On the front lines

And I used my heart along with my mind

 

Cuz when I went to war I was

Not overseas

And when I went to war I did

Not aim to please

 

No when I went to war it was

For our rights

And I yelled and I marched but was

Never in fights

 

Yes when I went to war

To make sure today

Would mark the end of the hatred

I pray

 

We petitioned and we sand and we

Tried to show the world

That love isn’t just for

One boy one girl

 

Please let this be the last

War we must fight

Before all humans have

Equal rights
