We live in a dark tunnel with light shining inside of us.

Mama say homos is bad peoples. But mama, homos not ones who raped me. And what do that make you? Homos not ones that let me sit in class all them years and never learn nothing. The homos not ones who sell crack to peoples in Harlem.

Some folks got a light around them that shine for other peoples. I think maybe some of them was in tunnels, and in that tunnel, maybe the only light they had was inside of them. And then, even long after they escaped that tunnel, they still be shining for everybody else.
