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

If I was gay I would think hip-hop hates me
Have you read the Youtube comments lately
"Man that's gay" Gets dropped on the daily
We've become so numb to what we're sayin'
Our culture founded from oppression
Yeah, we don't have acceptance for 'em
Call each other faggots behind the keys of a message board
A word routed in hate, yet our genre still ignores it
Gay is synonymous with the lesser
It's the same hate that's caused wars from religion
Gender to skin color the complexion of your pigment
The same fight that lead people to walk-outs and sit-ins,
It's human rights for everybody
There is no difference
Live on! And be yourself!
When I was in church, they taught me something else
If you preach hate at the service Those words aren't anointed
And that Holy Water, that you soak in is then poisoned
When everyone else Is more comfortable remaining voiceless
Rather than fighting for humans, that have had their rights stolen
I might not be the same But that's not important
No freedom 'til we're equal
Damn right I support it

I don't know

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

We press play Don't press pause
Progress, march on!
With a veil over our eyes
We turn our back on the cause
'Till the day That my uncles can be united by law
Their kids are walkin' around the hallway
Plagued by pain in their heart
A world so hateful, some would rather die than be who they are
And a certificate on paper
Isn't gonna solve it all, but it's a damn good place to start
No law's gonna change us
We have to change us. Whatever God you believe in
We come from the same one
Strip away the fear
Underneath it's all the same love
About time that we raised up

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

Love is patient, love is kind
Love is patient
Love is kind (Not crying on Sundays)
Love is patient, (Not crying on Sundays) love is kind (I'm not crying on Sundays)
Love is patient, (Not crying on Sundays) love is kind(I'm not crying on Sundays)
Love is patient, (Not crying on Sundays) love is kind(I'm not crying on Sundays)
Love is patient, love is kind

 In the opening of the video, we could see a wife being in labor while the family is there for her support. An example of pathos is shown when the mother was giving birth to the baby in the hospital. This visual of a baby being born usually gets people to feel the joy of a new arrival and be in awe of their cuteness. We could also feel the connection of love from the mom and her child when she gives him a little kiss on the hand. From the beginning, we could see that the child was born like any other child and with the same love.

  Another pathos we could make out is when the boy smile turns into a frown when the bottle landed on him. And after the game we see him leaving and going into his bedroom upset and crying against the door. At that moment we could tell that the boy is having a hard time fitting in because of his gender difference.

 We can also see pathos from when one of the guys gets on his knee pulling the ring out to propose to his boyfriend. The main character having the smile on his face and the acceptance of the proposal arouses the feeling of joy in the audience because it is a view of a new start of a family

 

Macklemore also uses a rhetorical device of logos to get his point across to the audience that being homosexual doesn’t make you different from any other human beings.

            Going back to his childhood, we could see the kids running around and riding their bikes into the wood. This scene is shown as logos because it is normal for kids to go out and have an adventure playing around.

            As we see the couple walking down the street holding hand, talking happily with each other, another display of logos we see is when the guy bump into the couple who also happen to walk in the street going in the opposite direction. We could see the disapproving looks they get from the guy looking back at them as they walk pass by.

            Toward the end of the video, while one of the couples was laying in the hospital bed, the other one was by his side holding his hand in a show of support and love. This action could be considered as logos because it makes sense for love one to always be by each other side in a time of wellness and illness.
