True Colors

Color, color, color
We're a beautiful race
Black, white, yellow
It ain't cool to be fake
Run, run, run
From the system of hate
Put it in a song
What I'm trying to say
Colors, colors
I get so blue when your grey
Oh, yeah
Black and white colors
It ain't hard to see
Voice never heard
Why we out in the streets
We ain't asking for a lot
Just the chance to speak
Take the heavy weights off
We just wanna be free
And now we wanna do good
Cause we was sold the dream
In the land of the brave
We just tryna achieve
And sure we wanna believe
But see it's hard to trust
Cause it feels like the whole deck's
Stacked against us
Colors, colors
Colors changing everyday
But I can see no difference
When I see your face
Colors, colors
Colors changing everyday
I see rainbow skies
We can run this race
What are we chasing?
Is it God or ambition, superstition
What I believe, good intentions
Cause I don't wanna gain the world
And lose my soul
They say that hate is a dangerous thing
Like a fire it consumes you, ooh
And the flames burn high
Crying out in the city street
But when the Sun comes up
I'm out trying find the wisdom in the ashes
Listen to me or I'll smash it
I'm dying to be heard
Following the herd
Scratch that
Raging, I'm raging, I'm raging
Fading, I'm fading, I'm fading
What do I want? To fly free
What do I need? Justice and peace for my friends and my family
What do I do? I don't know
But I'm so tired of all my friends feeling lost and out of control
Colors, colors
Colors changing everyday
But I can see no difference
When I see your face
Colors, colors
Colors changing everyday
I see rainbow skies
We can run this race
Heads up, eyes wide
Praying that God is on my side
All day, all night
I'ma let Him fight this fight
Heads up, eyes wide
Praying that God is on my side
All day, all night
I'ma let Him fight this fight
Colors, colors
Colors changing everyday
But I can see no difference
When I see your face
Colors, colors
Colors changing everyday
I see rainbow skies
We can run this race
