Living Out Loud with Darian

Independent artist and rebel Brian Slade (formerly known as Tonex') has created an amazing song in support of victims of anti-gay bullying titled BSFF (Rated R). This man has no limits when it comes to creating music that evokes passion and reaction from listeners. It's been on repeat on my iPod all weekend in wake of the latest gay man to take his own life.


In BSFF Slade sings about standing up for yourself and taking back the power from bullies. Listen and download the track for free below. I've also included the lyrics in this post as every line is packed with power. FYI: There is adult language and the song may not be suitable for work.

It's time to speak out boldly
stand up for our beliefs
Bullies are taking over
not just LGBT
can't believe what I'm reading
Now it's all on TV
Nobody's saying nothing
But you know that feeling


I was so scared to even walk around you
Loved to talk shit with all your friends all around you
Had to eat lunch by myself
But now I stick up for myself
Paybacks a bitch
Now watch me switch it up
Enough is enough


They called us
Butch
Stems
Faggots &
Fems
They called us
Trade
Queens
Sissies &
Freaks


I find it hard to believe
with our technology
we can't start educating
young people questioning
they love school but they hate it
and they can't say a thing
folks don't what they're facing
Same thing happened to me


I was so scared to even walk around you
Loved to talk shit with all your friends all around you
Had to eat lunch by myself
But now I stick up for myself
Paybacks a bitch
Now watch me switch it up
Enough is enough


They called us
Butch
Stems
Faggots &
Fems

Stand up for yourself
You've got support now
don't let them beat you down
stand up for yourself
time to fight back now
if you don't know I''ll show u how


at school
at church
at work
at home
you're not alone
stand up
you're not in this fight alone


I was so scared to even walk around you
Loved to talk shit with all your friends all around you


I remember it like yesterday
calling me out my name
embarrassing me everyday
Payback's a bitch
Now watch me switch it up
We've had enough


They called us
Butch
Stems
Faggots &
Fems

Sissies &
Freaks they said


Stand up for yourself
You've got support now
don't let them beat you down

time to fight back now
