Raised by a Homophobic Mother

There's nothing wrong with that.

We're All Insane

I think everybody wants their family to be proud of them and to care.

We're All Insane

Who wouldn't want...

We're All Insane
Raised by a Homophobic Mother

Like in a perfect world, yeah, it's like we shouldn't do anything to like try to, you know, get the approval of others.

We're All Insane

But at the same time, I think it's, in my opinion, I think it's the child in you.

We're All Insane
Raised by a Homophobic Mother

I don't think it's an image thing because it's not about what the world thinks.

We're All Insane

It's about just having them realize how well you're doing.

We're All Insane

Everything you're feeling is so human and so normal.

We're All Insane

It just sucks.

We're All Insane

try again yeah I need to yeah it takes time the whole point is just to find that peace and quiet within yourself it's more like it leads you to so much self acceptance I think too and just you it's easier said than done you know and I think that when like I said when there's this when this was your life for so long it's so hard to rewire your brain and to go backwards and like unravel all of this toxic

We're All Insane
Raised by a Homophobic Mother

pattern bullshit but like the more you work on it and the more you tell yourself and show yourself this new version of your life and you you're just gonna you're building this new future for yourself you know and I think that that's why kind of like what I was saying with the the second thought it's like

We're All Insane
Raised by a Homophobic Mother

We naturally like our first thought, in my opinion, is going to be the thought that's so like wired in us from our whole life.

We're All Insane
Raised by a Homophobic Mother

But that second thought is what's going to change our future.

We're All Insane
Raised by a Homophobic Mother

You know, like you have to keep reminding yourself like, no, I don't need to think this way.
