colorblind - larry thomas jr. lyrics

[verse 1: larry thomas jr.]
cooling in the city with my friends & they black
divided from the man by some railroad tracks
they both fell short & they both have sinned
but they would rather pick on color of your skin
so i was like, “man if you hate me then i hate you.”
my friend said, “man that ain’t how your mama raised you.”
so we stayed separate but equal
so there’d be no collision
but is that what dr. king had envisioned?
is that why rosa parks wouldn’t listen & remained in her seat?
so we could have rights or cause she didn’t want to leave
the hardest things they fought for are the things we mistreat
if you thought that was deep then take your seat i’m bout to bring the heat!
no bars! no more bars!
they’re throwing us in jail just because of our thoughts
we’re born at a disadvantage
then they go and raise the standards
it’s a struggle then they make it even harder
i get the chills when i am walking up the hill
sick of seeing in the news another black male is k!lled
why are they still shooting & scoring, i don’t get it!
weapons down you all are up like 0-26
if you feel, i’m lying let me throw you an -ssist
eric, troy, & trayvon it’s sad that there’s a list
they won’t stop until blacks don’t exist
well you can have my flesh because my soul will always live

[refrain]
yeah my soul will always live
i said my soul will always live
do right by god & forgive
and my soul will always live
i said my soul will always live
yeah my soul will always live
and i’ll make it to a place one day
where they won’t judge you by the color of your skin
colorblind…

[outro]
i’m a king need my crown
go & treat me like a clown
try to kick me while i’m down
just because my skin is brown
they don’t want to see me shine
hate to see me on my grind
why can’t we be colorblind
why can’t we be colorblind (2x)
