Trans 101 (Scarim)

[Intro]
Why are trans people targeted?
Colonialism marketin'
The right for us to just exist shouldn’t be an argument
Catch us walking down the street
Flowing, glowing, sparkling
Resistin' 'gainst the system
Our existence is a monument

[Verse]
Men want to touch us but behind closed doors
Love us in secrecy
Don’t we deserve much more?
I'm not your experiment like new worlds to explore
Nothin's new to us
'Cause we were here before

Which culture you think invented gayness?
I could never tell you 'cause it's ancient
Transphobia isn't native to first nations
Homophobia's white supremacy invasion
You must have respect for the ancient ways
I bet you’re still hopin’ this is just a phase
I knew I was trans at an early age
Comin' out the womb
When they misgendered me

[Hook]
You can’t circumvent our happiness
Trans bodies, how our beauty is immaculate
We are accurately, passionately, fabulous
And wherever we exist is miraculous

[Verse]
Having pride is nothing without inclusivity
They tried to criminalize us
Just for being me
All these anti-trans bills
They hate us willingly
Transphobia
Rooted in
White fragility
And all this started with colonization
Saw diversity of gender
Then they started to hate us

Indigenous people, we had a different arrangement
And now we hate ourselves
Like some self-discrimination

Trans bodies are like temples I could see you worshiping
Trans bodies sentimental
More beneath the surfaces
Trans bodies love each other
And the love is permanent
Trans bodies will prevail, and you cannot circumvent

[Hook]
You can't circumvent our happiness
Trans bodies, how our beauty is immaculate
We are accurately, passionately, fabulous
And wherever we exist is miraculous

[Instrumental]

[Outro]
Why are trans people targeted?
Colonialism marketin'
The right for us to just exist shouldn't be an argument
Catch us walking down the street
Flowing, glowing, sparkling
Resistin’ 'gainst the system
Our existence is a monument
