Personally, I get goosebumps from Coyote Grace.

One of the singers is a transman, and he sings  a lot about his transition.

To give you a taste:


Ghost Boy
by Joe Stevens
2006

Feel the moment come, let it pass along
I remember the first one, the very first day
There was someone here, when I came she disappeared
I catch a glimpse in what people say

I am a self-made man, born with my two hands
I been waiting for so long to finally stand
But I have no history, one day I just came to be
I barely know who I am

I walk down these halls, nobody knows my name
I know this place like it was mine, too
She is everywhere, I turn a shade of blue
I didn't come back here to stay
I'm just a ghost boy walking through

My eyes are opening, I seen what I can bring
I'm growing strong and I want to learn to do many things
But words don't come to me half as easily
As they did for her when she would sing

[chorus]

Take me away to a place
Where my name goes with my face
It ain't far away, my other name
My other face, slowly erase
And the big bang is gone
And I look you in the eye
I ain't nothing special now
No, I'm just another guy
And we all have said goodnight
And we all begin to roam
We all realize that you can't
We can never
No, we're never going home
No, we're never going home

I awake each day, life gives and takes away
I'm staying sane by talking through under the moon
I don't cry as much anymore, though I don't know what's in store
But I wish she hadn't left here so soon



Are there any other artists out there who you love? Lemme know!
