I'm black, your white, there is a difference
my hair, my skin, my voice
They are all different
but we are the same, we are in love
your ocean blue eyes light up this world
your smile is as bright as the sun
To you it might not seem a lot
And to you he cannot give it thought
But for every little thing you do
He owes his entire world to you.
Beat to the rhythm.
Tap your toes to the music.
Trapped in these prisms,
This tune is our rhetoric.
Who will speak for us?
What is speech against singing?
Words are all we trust.
I was at my very lowest when I began to assimilate,
That I had become what I most despise and hate,
Better never than late, no wait, better late than never,
You rescued me, from all my heartless endeavors,
What is human existence?Is it to pronounce our unfathomable desires in a rush of uncertainty?
Your pissing me off because everytime you open your mouth I pray you say something stupid but instead I am met with your artistic views and original ideals and it dissapoints me that you can say something so beautiful.
This ain't black and white.
This ain't right
This ain't right
They shout confused,
confined behind the lines.
What's it gonna be, press?
It's printed in black and white.
But there was RED.
It’s easy to put mercy out of sight.
Forget that people feel like you and I.
This is the world that lives in black and white.
They say that change will not come overnight.
Trembling they rise
Immersed in my grief
Ferrying my troubles with them
Dancing they fall
Catching the light
Diving down my cheek
Eyes bleed my miseries
Wrist bleeds my soul
