about

A song about finding comfort in your gender identity through the love of friends. Setting: East River Park during an incredibly busy day.

lyrics

I was 17 when I knew I wasn’t a boy, revelations that brought me a certain sense of joy. The lower east side lets its attitude be known, a stupid fucking viewpoint that can’t help but be shown.
Gentrification rears it’s ugly head again, and I don’t feel really comfortable being around men. I twist and bend to try and still fit in to archaic views surrounding the concept of sin.
Friends end up surrounding me who respect my identity more than my family ever would or could. Go back to conforming to a gender binary, I really don’t think that I ever could.
