Colored People |
| Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, sir |
| I couldn’t help but note your shade of melanin |
| I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement |
| Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin |
| We’ve gotta come together |
| And thank the Maker of us all |
| We’re colored people, and we live in a tainted place |
| We’re colored people, and they call us the human race |
| We’ve got a history so full of mistakes |
| And we are colored people who depend on a holy grace |
| A piece of canvas is only the beginning for |
| It takes on character with every loving stroke |
| This thing of beauty is the passion of an artist’s heart |
| By God’s design, we are a skin kaleidoscope |
| We’ve gotta come together |
| Aren’t we all human after all? |
| We’re colored people, and we live in a tainted place |
| We’re colored people, and they call us the human race |
| We’ve got a history so full of mistakes |
| And we are colored people who depend on a holy grace |
| Ignorance has wronged some races |
| And vengeance is the Lord’s |
| If we aspire to share this space |
| Repentance is the cure |
| Well, just a day in the shoes of a color blind man |
| Should make it easy for you to see |
| That these diverse tones do more than cover our bones |
| As a part of our anatomy |
| We’re colored people, and we live in a tainted place |
| We’re colored people, and they call us the human race |
| We’ve got a history so full of mistakes |
| And we are colored people who depend on a holy grace |
| We’re colored people, and they call us the human race |
| (Oh, colored people) |
| We’re colored people, and we all gotta share this space |
| (Yeah we’ve got to come together somehow) |
| We’re colored people, and we live in a tainted world |
| (Red and yellow, black and white) |
| We’re colored people, every man, woman, boy, and girl |
| (Colored people, colored people, colored people, colored people, yeah) |
