that just wasnt going to be a problem
and the same thing goes tonight
if u wanna call me names

they shouldnt have to take it
so for the people out there wondering what this is all about
whether it's about courage or controversy or publicity'
well i'll tell u what it's all about
it's about what happens from here
it's not just about what person
it's about thousands of people
it's not just about me
it's about all of us
accepting one another
we are all different
that's not a bad thing
that's a good thing
and well it may not be easy to get pass the things u always dont understand
i wanna prove that it is absolutely possible
if we only
do it together
thank u so much for this platform
thank u so much for this honor
bestowed on myself and on my family
thank u
