TREAT PEOPLE WITH KINDNESS is an lgbtq+ anthem
Harry has always been deeply aware of LGBT history, and he always finds a way to include it in everything he does.
disclaimer: I'm not a part of the community, I'm an ally, so if I get something wrong (although I spent a lot of time informing myself) please be kind and let me know

He starts the song with 'maybe', because it's not a fact, it's just a possibility to be able to find a place to be accepted. The PLACE: why is this place super important?
1: can be reference to lgbt centers, physical places that welcome people who are not accepted at home
2: it can also be a place in general, beign accepted everywhere (gay marriage is still not legal in most parts of the world)
3: a reference to an actual city.😱We'll get there. 😛
I've got a good feeling I'm just takin' it all in
Floating up and dreamin' Droppin' into the deep end
"good feeling, dreaming"
Harry is hopeful for a better and more welcoming world
And if we're here long enough They'll sing a song for us And we'll belong
He hopes that if people stay strong and advocate for lgbt rights, "they" homophobes will change their prospective. "We'll belong" is in contrast to feeling out of place in a heteronormative society.
Given second chances
I don't need all the answers
This could reference to giving second chances to people who changed their mind about being homophobic. Could also be about someone that at first is scared to accept/discover his sexuality but then the person embraces it.
Feeling good in my skin I just keep on dancin'
One of his many dancing references (I could write another essay about it). Harry/the person is accepting himself
Now. I've already talked about this lyrics. It's a reference to one of the most important part of the lgbt history: the Stonewall riots, 1969, NYC. It started a movement about reclaiming freedom.
And it's just another day And if our friends all pass away It's okay
The oppression of lgbt has always been a thing "it's just a day like any other"
If their friends pass away, they will be remebered with honor, because they fought for justice and freedom.
All we ever want is automatic all the time
automatic means having the capability of starting, operating, moving. I think that could mean that all they/Harry want is to start changing things, all they ever wanted is to change things
(All together now!)= All is to include all the community and allies (for support)
Maybe, we can (One more time!) find a place to feel good (Oh yeah!) And we can treat people with kindness (Just a little bit of kindness!)
Other 🌈s:
WSH drinking watermelon is about bjs. (See Beyonce' song)
Falling I can't unpack the baggage you left=unpack a baggage=clothes=closet
Adore you (the🐟is a he, their love story is🌈) Walk in your raimbow paradise is the PLACE he talks about in TPKW. (almost there)
In the Zane Lowe playlist🎶, H put A LOT of lgbt songs. (But that's another story) The most loud is San Francisco by Scott McKenzie. Why is this song so important? because is literally the blueprint for TPWK.
"If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair If you're going to San Francisco
You're gonna meet some gentle people there" / Maybe we can find a PLACE to feel good and tpwk & raimbow🌈PARADISE= reference to San Francisco
(Also Paradise could be a religious reference)
"For those who come to San Francisco Summertime will be a love-in there". Ow, again with the theme of SUMMER linked to the theme of LOVE (see my other stuff)
"In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair"
All across the nation
Such a strange vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation
With a new explanation
It's about the changing of the lgbt community, the riots of NYC, the prides manifestations. 🌈
Are you done with San Francisco yet??? No🥰
because....
San Francisco is literally called the gay mecca, gay capital of the world, the original gay-friendly city. The raimbow🌈flag was crated there. 🦋
Thanks for reading♥️ All the love, E.
