Todrick Hall - Black & White lyrics

Hey, Dreamer! Why you gotta dream so big? How you gonna fit inside this box Which I'm tryin' hard to fit you in? Hey, Dreamer! Why you gotta dream so bright? For you to dream in technicolor's Not okay, if it ain't gray! If it's black and white! Left, right! Right, left, right, left! [x4] We can move forward, But don't step out of line. Try to be content, this world is tintless But it's far from colorblind. And I was so sure Someday I would find The crack between the black and white A fact that might ignite a change of mind They said "Who do you think you are? What do you think you'll be? Why you run around town Thinkin' all these crazy things That ain't true, So just know your place. Just wasn't meant to be. Try, and you'll get a taste of good reality." And they say "Dream, but not too big. Reach, but not too wide Think the impossible, As long as it's in black and white." They said "Leap, but not too high. Shine, but not too bright. Think the impossible, As long as it's in black and white, I said..." Left, right! Right, left, right, left! [x4] You can move mountains, But don't you try to climb! You can write the songs, Don't get me wrong, Just know the words can never rhyme. And I was so sure If I gave 'em a little time Maybe they'd ignore it, Press fast forward, But they simply pressed rewind. They said "Who do you think you are? (Do you think you are?) What do you think you'll be? (Think you'll be) Why you run around town Thinkin' all these crazy things That ain't true, So just know your place. Just wasn't meant to be. Try, and you'll get a taste Of good reality." And they say "Dream, but not too big. Reach, but not too wide Think the impossible, As long as it's in black and white." They said "Leap, but not too high. Shine, but not too bright. Think the impossible, As long as it's in black and white, I said..." Left, right! Right, left, right, left! Left, right! Right, left, right, left! (Right, left, right left!) Left, right! Right, left, right, left! Left, right! Right, left, right, left! "No dreams allowed. No standing out. Stay in the crowd, Where it's black and white. Heads in the clouds, Just come back down. Feet on the ground, Where it's black and white!" And they say "Dream, but not too big. (Not too big!) Reach, but not too wide (Not too wide!) Think the impossible, As long as it's in black and white." They said "Leap, but not too high. (I said shine, babe!) Shine, but not too bright. (Not too bright!) Think the impossible, As long as it's in black and white, I said..." Dreamer! (Yeah, oh!) Why you gotta dream so big? How you gonna fit inside this box Which I'm tryin' hard to fit you in? Hey, Dreamer! Why you gotta dream so bright? For you to dream in technicolor's Not okay, if it ain't gray! If it's black and white! Left, right! Right, left, right, left! [x4]
