Spend our lifetime reading
books that we`ve been told to
Are we catching the meaning?
Are we really supposed to?
It`s time that we start seeing
the shades of color between the lines
Find a true way of being
Don’t you think we’re wasting time
Have you heard of Douglas town?
And the Irish of another skin
A million people have died there
how come we never heard a thing?
You envision a world without chains
Listen do you hear the call?
Dr. King and those who rise and fall
Fought so hard to bring peace to all
Chorus:
Can`t you see
that not everything is black and white?
Can’t you see,
that we need each other`s strength and might?
In this world of illusion
it`s so easy to be blinded
out of created confusion
separation in minded
See if we can believe in
the truth that all our children know
It`s about time we start thinking
it`s not all about what we`re told
Can`t you see
that not everything is black and white?
Can`t you feel
that we need each other`s strength and might?
When we believe
that there`s no need for these walls to grow
We`ll all see
that it takes all colors to make this rainbow
