Colors Flying High

Your flag, your alibi Can you hide behind Claiming might is right? Raise your fist to the sky While below your boots Common men die Colors fly Tell us who to love and who to hate And by the by Will the memories of our morals fade? Staying true To your own convictions in this haze Is harder to do than say So choose a color to live by Your goal, your faith, your virtue Give it all Be the best 'cause nothing less will do You can rule the world with colors flying high You'll know that if you stay true Green or blue Red or white You can't lose With your colors flying high What's your aesthetics, ethics? It's not like mine Not identical We know we gotta balance A common line Or a hard fall Colors rise Tell us who to hate and who adore And as you try To sort out what you've been fighting for Holding on To the line you drew into the sand Will show them all Where you stand So choose your colors true and bright As hero, liege or sinner Give it all Be the best 'cause nothing less will do If you must go down with colors flying high You know you're still a winner Pink or pale Black as night You can't fail With your colors flying high So choose the color you will fly Fight on for your convictions Give it all Be the best 'cause nothing less will do You can rule the world with colors flying high Your genuine ignition Green or blue Red or white You can't lose With your colors flying high
