Color

Whoever you are and whatever color you may be Let your color shine so all can see That doesn't mean become your "brother" But to become another (color) That can still change its tone in the summer Am I only the color you see Will that remain the same until I speak?? That is something that may never change But don't get angry because we are not to blame Color doesn't make us who we are We all....excuse me MOST of us know that Don't worry about the people who don't know They will learn through the actions we show So I won't sag, throw gang signs Shoot sideways like one eye is blind I'm not trying to be better, worse, or stand out from what I am BUT I WILL CLIMB not be above every other but to not spend the rest of my life being a color
