Love That You Required

And in the space of one month two dead trans kids
Four living parents, one pair is childless
They say ‘the average percentage is rising’
It's easy to believe when we’re barely surviving
I swear, if they ever release those names
I'm packing my bags and i'm moving away
They’ll have more to worry about than just hiding
Y'got blood on your hands and that ain't sliding kid
I was everything you shouldn’t be
I'm sorry that you couldn’t get
Everything you needed
This world is so demeaning i know
That you were scared
And you were tired
I'm sorry you couldn’t get the love that you required
The love that you required
And in the space in between, two groups collided
One felt hate, both are divided
They say we have to consider both sides
It's hard to comprehend when there's lives on the line
I swear, they feed off the doom that we feel
Conclusions they draw to feel real
Genocidal attack on these lives
You can draw blood but you can't draw mine
I was everything you shouldn’t be
I'm sorry that you couldn’t get
Everything you needed
This world is so demeaning i know
That you were scared
And you were tired
I'm sorry you couldn’t get the love that you required
Wish you could’ve seen the people out there
In the street, sharing their poetry
In your name, crying in your name
Laughing in your name, wishing this all would go away
Sharing stories about their loved ones
Sharing stories about of getting kicked out of home
In your name
Crying in your name
Laughing in your name
Wishing this would all go away
