The Color Hate

CHORUS:

We all talk, we alk walk, we all do the things we want

We're so powerful we say, so why can't we stop the hate

So come on, tell me how to get to the place

where all the color lines fade away

Things ain't always what it seems, Martin Luther King

Said it and while you hate you regret it

But the world will never change until you openly admit it

Yo, what about the great American dream

where all men are created equal

Was that a twisted plot for the sequel?

Sewing seeds of hate so that your kids inherit evil

And the wonder why your peachy

neighborhood ins't so peaceful

Ooh, let feedom ring

And shake the entire being of America's dream

Let it ring from montaintops to vallay lows

My rally grows stronger with my hunger

For this land of the free, home of the brave

Mentally enslaved, we lost everything that

our forefathers gained

Pain? My race still decides it

As states we're united and by hate we're divided

CHORUS

I ain't the first to paint this picture,

reminisce on how my situation

Done got me thinkin' clear, oh my dear, baby

I'm sick of tryin' lately, yall see me cryin' it's crazy

I thought we made it far from here. Oh, Oh, Oh No

Forgive them Father for they don't know their

problem's gone

Deeper than my skin, became king of the hole above their chin

Don't tell me nothin' 'cause I don't wanna hear it

God judges through your spirit, don't let your hate

See my color and dig my grave again

CHORUS

Many have died; their very lives a living sacrifice

But they all remembered, they all

remembered, yeah, yeah

Instead of walkin' lets march, instead of

words lets speak heart

Who needs the sunlight, when freedom reigns?

Yo, she was such a dignified child

It been a long while since she seen a

stranger smile

Just moved to New York and they all hate her

'cause she can dance

Who ever said havin' rhythm means you gotta be tan

She was taught to be colorblind but her ears could hear
