It was never supposed to end this way
It was never meant to hurt you.
We all grow up
We all find our place.
Maybe one day
You'll find yours.
In the distance,
I'd want nothing more
than to hear everything.

I try to imagine myself in a world where there’s no black and white
Just Yellow, green, and beautiful blue.
In the red reality we live in, it’s hard to just be yellow.
It’s hard to be just you…
I was born this way. That’s the truth.
But I can’t say I’m happy with this me. Society makes it hard for me to breathe in peace.

Black and white is all they see, but why can’t you just see… Remy?
I’m black and they tell me to be proud. Well give me a reason to say “I’m proud.” Mocking me for saying my life matters, laughing at me while saying fried chicken, telling me to pick cotton, and throwing paper at me, telling me to just “**** it up.”

Being this unique comes with a price. Being black isn’t a blessing, it’s an inconvenience. Why should I shame myself for being born with this color? Why should I apologize to others for not being born with their skin?

There’s a world in picture books and fairy tales that only consist of yellow, green and beautiful blue. But in this reality… You wish for me to be the color you choose.

And Remy were supposed to have a life together.
Lucy is now with Heather,
Remy could be doing better.
Lucy and Heather fall too deep,
Remy is going to fall asleep.
Lucy realizes her mistake,
For Remy, it’s too late.

I wish people cared.
I wish people were there.
They're too fed up in their pretty relationships and lives.
They don't dare ask about mine
I want to hide
I want to one day be honest and say:
"I'm fine"

I moved on so many times...
It's like I never moved on in the first place.

He moved on,
It's like he never took a step in the first place.
