Lyrics
True colors
True colors
True colors
True colors
All I got is my mother, sisters, and brothers
(In this world, there's good and there's evil
But there's only so much evil a good man can take
In this wicked world
Until he snaps)
Getting sick and tired of this nonsense
World full of abusers and false prophets
Take the time to help a human when they down
When the world let 'em drown
And what is the thanks that I get
Truly to be honest, I been feeling offended
Break your back to love a friend and
Then they stab you in it
What's fake
What's real
Twenty-Three and still don't know how to feel
I'm just grateful that I'm healed
And that God has revealed
True colors
True colors
True colors
True colors
All I got is my mother, sisters, and brothers
Father and fam
I can't trust no others, Go
Go, go, go, go, go, go
Check
World turning chaotic
People killing each other over antibiotics
Call the murderers genius
And the healers psychotic
Then they killing all the healers
If they mess with the profit
Locking up the innocent with false confessions
No Black Wall Street pages
In the High School lessons
Banning abortions but praising weapons
Mass shooting professions
Fast food companies making slavery investments
Church members paying they tithes, big stressing
Crooked preachers molesting wives, no discretion
Then it drowns under presidential elections
Daily trauma so we conform to natural selection
Less schools and more prisons are innovated
More money to military is elevated
But all you get is slow singing
And flower bringing
Forget about that Piru, Your Politician banging
Hop out
Drive-by shootings are now imperative
Social media painting these false narratives
Instagram flexing, flaunting in different poses
But in real life, they living homeless
And no one knows it
Billionaires while there's poor people in need
Treat them terrible with deception and greed
People bashing the Holy Bible, Quran
But still believing in everything else they read
Rappers slaving for record companies flowing
Rocking venues, popularity growing
Until they look at that check and no money's showing
So they turn to the drugs and women for coping
That's what I call this thing called life
But I feel like through it all, I know we'll be alright
We got to heal
And be a vessel for each other
Embrace the truth and pray for one another
True colors
True colors
Yeah
