(Verse 1)
I was born and raised
In them old school ways
My daddy told me “God hates gays”
Lord knows he made me pay
But there ain't no pain
Any worse than shame
I drank my summers away
Mhm
(Pre-Chorus)
I lost my desire
Stuck in the mire
Burnt by the fire
Waiting on a messiah
Something to take me higher
(Chorus)
Oh but ain't it funny
Sweet like American honey
Life gets you down
But love brings you round again
Now I'm up and running
Hot like American money
Can't stop me now
Cause I'm coming out
(Post-Chorus)
I'm going down town
Slave to the rhythm
Turn it up loud
Body getting wet in the hot crowd
Watch a mothеr fucker glow up, glow up
Like wow
(Versе 2)
So free, feels like ecstasy
A new me, ain't just a daydream
Suddenly I belong
Coming up hard like a mustang
Your love, hit me like bang bang
All my worries are gone
(Pre-Chorus)
The glitter keeps raining
Haters keep hating
We keep glowing on
We got it all going on
(And don't they fucking hate it)
(Chorus)
Oh but ain't it funny
Sweet like American honey
Life gets you down
But love brings you round again
Now I'm up and running
Hot like American money
Can't stop me now
Cause I'm coming out
(Post-Chorus)
I'm going down town
Slave to the rhythm
Turn it up loud
Body getting wet in the hot crowd
Watch a mother fucker glow up, glow up
Like wow
(Bridge)
Talkin’ ‘bout liberation
Witness my emancipation
Watch a mother fucker glow up, glow up
It's about to blow up, blow up
I've been on a love starvation
But I'm about to break formation
You got me glowing, I'm falling in love
(Chorus)
Oh but ain't it funny
Sweet like American honey
Life gets you down
But love brings you round again
Now I'm up and running
Hot like American money
Can't stop me now
Cause I'm coming out
(Post-Chorus)
I'm going down town
Slave to the rhythm
Turn it up loud
Body getting wet in the hot crowd
Watch a mother fucker glow up, glow up
Like wow
Down town
Slave to the rhythm
Turn it up loud
Body getting wet in the hot crowd
Watch a mother fucker glow up, glow up
Like wow
