Colour Purple (feat. Kojey Radical)

Never spend your whole life waitin' for the life that you wanna live

Never spend your whole life waitin' for the life that you wanna live

Subtleties, summer breeze, red wine, dungarees

Clear skies follow me, everything is what it is

Hello, oh, I feel colorful, colorful

Hello, oh, I feel colorful, colorful

Hello, oh, I feel colorful, colorful

Hello, oh, I feel colorful, colorful

I feel golden today

That Monday blues, brother

Boy, was I blue, brother

Who was I fooling?

Excuses, excuses

Changing every day

Ruby, Tuesday

I was fourteen when I first knew I was black

Not by pigmentation, but hatred and fear attacks

Never learned to love on your Page 3 for that

Loudest one talkin' was empty, in fact, eh

I remember the day like it was yester'

Enough to leave a grown man pale like Uncle Fester

I ain't had apology yet to cover bruises

Tried to complain, but the system said it was useless

Never spend your whole life waitin' for the life that you wanna live

Never spend your whole life waitin' for the life that you wanna live

Subtleties, summer breeze, red wine, dungarees

Clear skies follow me, everything is what it is

Hello, oh, I feel colorful, colorful

Hello, oh, I feel colorful, colorful

Hello, oh, I feel colorful, colorful

Hello, oh, I feel colorful, colorful

All-white suit when I die, I'll put the color in my pen

Always kept me in line

When I was colorin' my roots, blossomin' to the sky

They want a summer fling

The colour purple in my sight, I fell in love with it

My blood bleed red like a redneck

But my teeth? Dem are whiter than dem face

And my skin's all dark like I'm Kinte (Kunta Kinte)

That means I had to sell green for that rent there

This is my palette, this is my talent

These watercolors got me feelin' like I'm magic

This is my palette, this is my talent

These watercolors got me feelin' like I'm magic
