It’s time to stand up, for love and equality
It’s time to join up, and celebrate life
Some are misguided, in the name of tradition
In America freedom, means we all have rights
I know we’ve heard this all before, keep things the same and nothing more
Some don’t understand what freedom means
They want to force us to agree, there’s only one way we should be
And not be free to love the person of our dreams
It’s time to stand up, for love and equality
It’s time to join up, and celebrate life (I tell you)
Some are misguided, in the name of tradition (yes they are)
In America freedom, means we all have rights
Children need love to help them thrive, yes they need caring to survive
When people try to keep them down
If everyone could see, all the different families
They would learn and then they’d come around
It’s time to stand up, for love and equality
It’s time to join up, and celebrate life (let me tell you)
Some are misguided, in the name of tradition (yes they are)
In America freedom, means we all have rights
We’re talkin’ gay, trans, bi, straight, wanna marry our soul mate
Hard to find the one to love, nothing to be guilty of
No one’s been appointed who, should tell the whole what to do
Acrimony and division, are not the purpose of religion
It’s time to stand up (it’s time to stand up), for love and equality (equality, equality)
It’s time to join up, and celebrate life (hear me sayin’)
Some are misguided, in the name of tradition (yes they are)
In America freedom, means we all have rights
It’s time to stand up, for love and equality
It’s time to join up, and celebrate life (yeah)
Some are misguided, in the name of tradition
In America freedom, means we all have rights
It’s time to stand up, for love and equality
It’s time to join up, and celebrate life (celebrate life)
Some are misguided, in the name of tradition (yes they are)
In America freedom, means we all have rights (we all have rights0
In America freedom, means we all have rights
In America freedom, means we all have rights
In America freedom, means we all have rights (we all have rights)
In America freedom, means we all have rights
In America freedom, means we all have rights
