Verse 1
(C minor) Wanna make the people feel something
But (B flat major) (E flat major) if I can't speak the (F minor) truth,
don't feel nothing (E flat major) (F minor)
I gotta speak my mind
It's a lot on (G minor) my mind
Scared of what I'll (C minor) say nex (G minor) t I'm (F minor)
just waiting for the same tex (C minor) t
Cause the real is just too real
They (B flat major) don't care how (E flat major) I feel
I'm a brown (C minor) boy livin' in a white (F minor) world
Little shame to my brown skin
Not brown enough,
but too brown can (G minor) 't win
They don't even have to
say a dam (B flat major) n thing
(C minor) It's what (F minor) they do and that's
the same thing
(C minor) Same thing
Dirty lips at the airport
Cause (E flat major) I'm lookin' like (B flat major) a
thug in my track (E flat major) suit
Who even cares what I look like? (C minor)
(F minor) They care, they (C minor) care
It's (B flat major) (C minor) not (G minor) fair, it's not fair (C minor)
Express slangs,
express ways about (B flat major) the feeling about me (E flat major)
I'm good enough but not (F minor) good
enough to say (C minor) anything
(B flat major) My (F minor) opinion matters only if it's just about me,
(G minor) not them
Cause (B flat major) they don't
wanna hear a thing (C minor)
They just want me to sing
(B flat major) They don't wanna hear a thing
They (E flat major) don't know anything
(C minor) They (F minor) just want me to sing
(C minor) But (E flat major) I'm (F minor) more than (C minor) that,
(E flat major) I'm more than that (C minor)
(G minor) I'm more (C minor) (B flat major) (C minor)
I am the color
I (F minor) am, (C minor) I am, (B flat major) I (C minor) am
You are the color
You (F minor) are, (C minor) you are, (B flat major) you (C minor) are
(F minor) I am the color
We are, we are, we are (B flat major)
We the color
(F minor) Yeah (C minor)
I am (B flat major) the color of (A flat major) you
You are the color (G minor) of me (F minor)
Hey, (E flat major) yeah (G minor)
I am the col (B flat major) or of you (A flat major)
Chains are now broken,
(C minor) praise (B flat major) to the young (A flat major) boy
Blessed to have my grandmother's (C minor)
blood an (B flat major) d this golden skin (A flat major)
I used to try to keep (C minor) up,
all time (B flat major) I've been (A flat major) more than enough
More (C minor) than enough (B flat major)
For (A flat major) every hand that you've dealt us,
put it up (C minor) an d say that you help us
(B flat major) We build from (A flat major) the ground up, oh thank
God that you found us
(C minor) So you can surround (B flat major) us, oh
Put (A flat major) them up, put them up high,
them come (C minor) busting through in (B flat major) the night.
(A flat major) It's going down, down, down.
(C minor) That's how we keep our head
up in (B flat major) the clouds, oh yeah. (C minor)
I am the color.
I am, (B flat major) I am, I am.
(C minor) You are the color.
You (F minor) are, you are, (B flat major) you are. (F minor)
I am the color.
We are, we are, (B flat major) we are.
We are the color.
You are, yeah.
I (C minor) am the gun
Say, yeah, yeah, (B flat major) yeah, yeah, (A flat major) yeah
are the gun
You are, you are (G minor)
I (F minor) am the gun
Said, don't you know (E flat major) that you are
You (G minor) are the gun (C major) (G minor)
(C minor) Uh, I was born and raised in
A -Town
Out of
Nui by the playground (E flat major)
And I (C minor) put up for my city, though
Same city haters cause our (E flat major) face brown
(C minor) Same time,
same city love me cause the flow
was the coldest
And it's so (C minor) sick, I spread the
COVID
And the cops lock (C minor) me up because my (E flat major) nose big I'm
(C minor) from the east side streets, through the
concrete I (C minor) grew like a rose did
The
Pacific
Ocean, we (C minor) rode it
And I own shit before
you (E flat major) knew what a boat is
I am the (C minor) color of the truth
and you know this
On my shoulders,
the future hope has been
bestowed
And I (C minor) never fold it
I'ma go in and take back
everything (C minor) that was (E flat major) stolen
I (C minor) am the color
