We've all heard Macklemore's song called "Same Love." He's the hypocrite who pushes tolerance and acceptance while being intolerant and unaccepting of those who disagree. That's me "rapping" and my daughter, Sam, singing! Check it out on my Facebook, or find me on Twitter.

Here are the lyrics:

When I was 3-years-old, I started watching the news,

I’d observe and feel bad for people facing the blues,

I cared for the people, their stories hard times and their glories

But, I never got a lift thinking about who they wanted to sleep with

Fast forward to Obama-times, these rappers with their catchy rhymes ignoring Benghazi, Spying our economy dying..

Instead they force their thoughts on us, insult if we want to discuss they push tolerance and acceptance as they force us to the back of the bus.

Sorry, that doesn't work for me.. if you want me to accept your thoughts you don’t get to reject my thoughts

I accept you and love you and get that we don’t see eye to eye.. but, you don’t get to preach those words of love while dumping hate by my side.

You have your beliefs and I have mine.. but, stop lying to the masses acting like anything goes passes if I’m against what you’re pushing accept it … I won’t hold my breath I don’t expect it..

And I can't change

Even if I tried

Even if I wanted to

And I can't change

Even if I tried

Even if I wanted to

My love

My love

My love

She keeps me warm

She keeps me warm

She keeps me warm

She keeps me warm

As you say I should accept you, and love would not reject you – you tell me why I’m dead wrong for feeling you’re not singing my song..

You denigrate my beliefs saying we’re from the same tree just different leaves, I have to agree with you or shut my mouth, sorry funny haircut that’s just not what I’m about.

I have an idea for you, if you’re having trouble seeing my view.. if you care to do something positive for me and you .. accept my disagreement and make your argument less vehement.. show me some tolerance and I’ll see your side clearer before you cast aspersions be sure you look in the mirror

Don’t you get it? You’re telling me what I should or shouldn't feel depending on YOUR take – that’s your spiel. You want me to say you’re right.. if I disagree, then it’s a fight.

As MLK said, now get this through your head – you bring change through peace not violence or incitement – you want tolerance and understanding.. then check the judgements where you’re standing

Today it might be hip to call me out because I refuse to stop being so devout.. you say all love is the same.. putting down religion is your game.. you have the inside track on the truth you claim.. sorry, from my perspective.. my brother, that’s just insane..
