Conservative

You'd rather protect tradition Than accept your children The dead matter more, of course Your kids should accept that It's easier for you to enforce these rules than changing for the better 'no kid of yours-' The kid is yours, and they're already terrified Of the hate you show them Every time you open your mouth To shame the people on TV Your childrens people you make yourself an enemy They avoid telling you about crushes because You think it's unnatural They think they're unnatural What do you think? Is hate more natural? Is your kid crying themselves to sleep more natural? Is them wishing themselves away more natural? Is your kid being threatened by your fellow church goers More natural? 'Pray the gay away', Tell God you hate in His name, Tell Him you drove your kid away Tell Him you won't love your neighbour Because you refuse to change
