Colored People by Dc Talk D, A, G Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, sir I couldnt help but note your shade of melanin I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin Weve gotta come together And thank the maker of us all (chorus) Were colored people, and we live in a tainted place Were colored people, and they call us the human race Weve got a history so full of mistakes And we are colored people who depend on a holy grace A piece of canvas is only the beginning for It takes on character with every loving stroke This thing of beauty is the passion of an artists heart By gods design, we are a skin kaleidoscope Weve gotta come together, Arent we all human after all? (repeat chorus) Ignorance has wronged some races And vengeance is the lords If we aspire to share this space Repentance is the cure Well, just a day in the shoes of a color blind man Should make it easy for you to see That these diverse tones do more than cover our bones As a part of our anatomy (repeat chorus) Were colored people, and they call us the human race Were colored people, and we all gotta share this space Were colored people, and we live in a tainted world Were colored people, every man, woman, boy, and girl www.TAB6.com
