colours...

you can't just judge me with just one glance

just because my colour is brown

it doesn't define who i am

this is not the only colour you will see

so why should you judge me by my colour?

colour is skin deep

to love me is to know me

so please don't judge me because of this

without colours, there's no harmony

just like without melody, there's no music
without a soul, it'll be cold

just like without parents, there won't be you

being in a mixed parentage has tought me alot

although i might not have the same colour

but i know more than you'll ever learn

just like how i know you've been judging me

i don't need to be call names because of my colour

because one day it might just be you

i may be white, i may be black

i am both colours in between

i can be a hero, i can be a loser

i am yearning for a name

i am hymn, i am heard

i am reasons without ryhmes

i am no one yet i am many

i am seasoned by each being

i am a student, i am a leader

i am fate and evolution

so do what you want

say what you can...

words can't slow me down

from doing what is meant for me...
