We the coloured kids
With the coloured mind state
Yo who we be?
[Verse 1]
Down in Brighton
Down in Brighton with a hangover
So well hung
I'll come hang when the sh**'s done
Try f** me up
Jamaican genes when I'm turning up
I'm Nat Turner
Rising up I ask have you heard the
Coloured Album
Brother Malcolm, that red hair been coming through
I read the message so I come to you
Equipped with a mind so colourful
It's like the Hawaiian shirt
That I copped from The Cool and The Casual
Antithesis of a callous call
Got a big heart in the way I talk
And the way I'm acting
Plan of action, look at my poster of Michael Jackson
And tell him that we share a pa**ion
Liz Taylor get a doppelganger in her early 20s
We'll get it cracking
LT smashing, yeah, LT smashing
[Hook]
It's the Coloured Album
Minus the U for the USA
Or keep it in for the UK
The French would say
Yo c'est l'album coloré
Yeah, c'est coloré, c'est coloré
From The Big L to Monterrey
The Colony got sh** to say
[Verse 2]
Yo Lee got a son, Deji got a daughter
I been fathering styles
Our prophylactic orders
Ain't never in abundance
It's feeling like a disorder
And if they stay redundant
One day we'll all get caught up
I was born not breathing
Swallowed my own sh**
Lady doctor resuscitated
Been talking it ever since
With the Coloured Album's birth year
Shared with the homies' kids
I guess it's a Holy Trinity
From the Rhyme of Genesis
Yeah this rhyme's my genesis
[Hook]
It's the Coloured Album
Minus the U for the US
Or keep it in for the UK
