Let's talk about life
How everyone is trying to go to heaven
But if you focus on now
Life could be your heavenLet's talk about sex
How society makes it a bad thing
Sex is natural, it is human
Yet we make it something to fear and to shamelet's talk about violence
How as long as it's done by the right people
As long as it's done against the right people
Somehow we find a way to let it goLet's talk about love
How we are taught from birth who, what, and how to love
How on the list of love runs "myself" is never number one
Explain how love can be so many different shapes and sizes yet we only accept oneLet's talk about opinions
How can someone respect her opinion was shoving it down your throat
We say "you can have you're opinion only if it agrees with mine"Let's talk about expression
How you say be yourself
Then you tell me who I am
How you say you are free
But you can only do so muchLet's talk about rape
Let's talk about racism
Let's talk about sexism
Let's talk about homophobia
Let's talk about transphobia
Let's talk about terrorism
Let's talk about corruptionIt's time for us to have a seat
Because it's clear we need to talk
