Gay If I Had a Choice (v.2)

They say it's just biology, hardwired in my brain But honestly, if I could switch, I'd hop the other train 'Cause dating men is exhausting, emotional whack-a-mole And I'm tired of pretending that they understand my soul If I could pick my wiring, reprogram my brain I'd opt out of this heterosexual chain But here I am, stuck with nature's design Straight and bitter, wasting my time I'd be gay if I had a choice, baby Sign me up for that lifestyle, baby Trade in all this hetero noise For someone who actually deploys Emotional intelligence, what a concept, crazy I'd be gay if I had a choice, baby They don't listen, they won't unlearn what patriarchy instilled They think accountability's an attack, defenses built Meanwhile my queer friends are thriving, communicating clear And I'm here playing translator for another man's fear Women are divine, they've got it figured out They do the work, no fragile ego to work around But here I am, cosmically assigned To want what's holding back mankind So here's my official statement, Let the transcript show: If identity was customizable I'd choose rainbow. But the universe said "straight girl" So here's my fate below: Attracted to the gender least likely to grow. I'd be gay if I had a choice, baby Opt out of this mess, save me From another "what are we" conversation void Where emotional labor gets deployed Unreciprocated daily I'd be gay if I had a choice, baby Stuck straight, what a waste Could've had taste
