Colour Blind Lyrics

All I see is pain

All I see is pain

All I see is pain

All I see is

All I see is pain

All I see is pain

All I see is

I tried to be good

Fam I'm saying it now I can't turn my back but you know that I tried to be good

I just don't understand why they couldn't love me and treat me the way that they should

I won't fight for your love but if it was my turn to care you know that I would

I've been trying to get out the hood

I've been been trying to (fuck)

Why do you hate us?

Why do you shoot us

Why are we all on your hooks (why)

Why do you cage us

Why do you shame us

Why do you hate on our looks (why)

Why is slavery the only time I see we get put in your books

I'm tired of being a crook (tired)

I did everything that I could

I went to your schools

I got my degree I did everything that I should

So what did I miss? Is it my tattoos, my skin or the way that I look

I can't get a job, they move me around so much I'm feeling like Passover bread

When you've got no choice, pushed down they're putting their knees on our necks

So how can we breathe? It's better to live in your head if they're killing us

Lately it fucks with my head

I toss I turn in my bed

The darker your skin the likelier chance that you're getting shot in the head

Or stabbing somebody instead

It could be your family next

It could be my

I don't know mate I've been having this weird idea like, what if we were all colorblind Would racism exist then?

If I can't see who's white, who's black or brown, if I had no option but to choose to love Someone not because of the color of his skin, but because of his heart

They say come to Africa (Africa)

Micky he's living in Ghana I swear I would do anything to get out of here

The systems corrupt the government stealing money and the police don't really care (Nah)

They're having you locked for the longest time if you are not willing to pay the fare

The people don't know what they're doing here

We party all night the music so loud and foreign that we cannot really hear

Make sure our minds are not really clear

Drink it up drink it up

Why should we even care

Tomorrow we ask is it really fair

The youth is blinded scamming their way to a future that isn't there

Selling their souls man it isn't rare

The gyaldem are giving their bodies quick

If you're flashing those cedi's and pounds know that they're fucking you just for the smell of it (hoes)

Close to you just to be close to it (no)

I'm tired of all these ventriloquists

Getting affairs in order, pushing the border of what success really is

Trying my best to be relevant (relevant)

All I see is pain

All I see is pain

All I see is pain

All I see is

All I see is pain

All I see is pain

All I see is
