Larry Thomas Jr. - ColorBlind 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**ed 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 a**ist 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)
