Your stepmom drives you to school, but you’ve got nothing to talk about,
So you hop on the bus, now you’ve got something to complain about.
They call you a faggot every day, a word you can’t defend,
You’d try to tell them it’s not your way, but your voice just does you in.

Give it some time, boy, you will see,
This is not the end.
Give it a year, or maybe five,
It won’t be more than ten.

Til you’re dancing through the city like a big-time motherfucker,
Just dancing through the city like a big-time motherfucker.
Your granny, she may not approve,
It don’t mean you don’t love her,
You’re just dancing through the city like a big-time motherfucker.

Little girl, would you prefer a different pronoun?
Don’t worry, I won’t tell your mother now.
The restroom mirror in your church,
Shows the monster your preacher’s been preachin’ bout,
But look even harder and you will find,
Such a Noble man tryna come out.

Just give it some time boy, you will see,
This is not the end.
You’ll get a new birthday you’ll share with me,
You’ll start over again.

Dancing through the city like a big-time motherfucker,
You’re just dancing through the city like a big-time motherfucker.
Your auntie, she may scoff at you,
But you just see her in the summer,
Cause you’re dancing through the city like a

Breakdown

And when all this time alone feels like a waste,
You may be free, but your bed has one big empty space,
I hear that’s when you know,
That you’ve gotten to know yourself.
You’ll put yourself out there,
You’ll put yourself out there,
(It’ll be scary but) you’ll put yourself out there,
(It’ll be hard but) you can put yourself out there,
You’ll put yourself out there -

You’ll be dancing through the city with a big-time motherfucker,
You’ll be dancing through the city with a big-time motherfucker,
You’ll look in their eyes and you will find it was worth the while,
Cause you're dancing through the city with a big-time motherfucker,
You’re dancing through the city with a big-time motherfucker,
You’re dancing through the city with a -
And you dance, and you dance, and you dance...
