Diverse City

Diverse City
Gonna take ya higher
Freakshow, baby
Diverse City
Gonna take ya higher
Freakshow, baby
They call us Diverse City, we’re colorful good
It’s like a freak show in your neighborhood
So, if you wanna praise you can come on down
'Cause this freak show’s leavin' the ground (Diverse City)
Up, up and away, baby, we don’t play, maybe you thought you was done for the day
He said, she said, I said this, that you can’t get away from the moment of bliss
Stirring, we’ll lure you in and we’ll make room for the shade of skin (Oh)
Short ones, tall ones, skinny ones, bigger, love is the gun and we pullin' that
trigger
So you send me and I’ll send you hope in the form of a new tattoo
Mine is the shiny city on a hill and yours, and of course, is the colors that
fill it, fill it, fill it, fill it, fill it, fill it, fill it, fill it
We’ll take ya high, we’ll take ya higher, we can take ya higher
They call us Diverse City (Wow), we’re colorful good
It’s like a freak show (Freakshow) in your neighborhood
So, if you wanna praise you can come on down
'Cause this freak show’s leavin' the ground (Diverse City)
Now come to the city where you can praise
If you’re black, if you’re white, if you’re yellow or grey
In the morning, in the night, anytime of day
What’s that place?'
Diverse City!
With curls in your hair and braids on the side
Straight shake 'em loose, just come on and ride (Come on and ride)
We’re a body with parts, like you and me
Together we make diversity
We’ll take ya high, we’ll take ya higher, we’ll take ya higher
Welcome to Diverse City (Wow), we’re colorful good (Woo)
It’s like a freak show (Freakshow) in your neighborhood (Yeah, woo)
So, if you wanna praise you can come on down (Down, yeah, yeah)
'Cause this freak show’s leavin' the ground
Diverse City (Uh) (City, city, city, city, city)
Diverse City (City, city, city, city, city)
Ground
Di-verse
City (Ah oh yeah)
Di-verse
Gotta play, play all day
Di-verse
City, ah oh yeah
Di-verse
Gotta play, play all day
You bring the heart, I’ll bring the soul (Soul)
I’ll bring the flag, you bring the pole (Pole)
We’ll fly it high so the whole world knows (Knows)
The dream of a King 'bout to unfold
We 'bout to do this thing for real
Diverse City got mass appeal (Yeah)
So put your hand in the hand of mine
And we’ll spread this love like dandelions
'Cause we’re Diverse City (Uh), we’re colorful good
Oh, it’s like a freak show, oh it’s like a freak show, baby
So, if you wanna praise you can come on down
'Cause this freak show’s leavin' the ground
Said we’re Diverse City, we’re colorful good (Diverse City)
Diverse City’s rollin' right up into your neighborhood
Ladies
If you wanna praise
You can come on down (Diverse City)
'Cause this freak show’s leavin' the ground
We’ll take ya, we’ll take ya
Diverse City

Like a city on a hill
Diverse City

And that’s for realio
Diverse City (City, city, city, city, city)
