A LETTER TO MY NIECE Lyrics

What to do when a family member knows you're trans before they get to meet you

My mama don't like you,

My grandma don't like you,

My daddy don't like you

Children don't lie,

My mask was on tight,

I took it off for you,

I took it off for you

Your smile is shining bright,

And you're wearing ladies clothing

And it's looking like a sight

I'm getting spiteful

My parents don't like you,

My parents don't like you,

You're looking a little different

I'm not that suspicious

Children don't lie,

Children don't lie

Shit

I cried you in my hands,

I used to be your uncle,

I got some of them diapers,

I got some of them nightmares

That's your mother and your father talking about me,

I know you don't care

My niece saw my face and ran

Before I made this song

My grandma saw my scars,

Bathing and in the word of God,

Before I made this song,

Here's a letter to my niece
