If I done this song again I would execute so much better..
I still love the idea so may do
Anyways overall this video says it all
-
Oh now I see ya
The love of money all in your demeanour
Smile in the face of my mum
but behind calls doors you call me nigga
I never really understood I was just playing on my gameboy
staying put, I see these parents are arguing between themselves,
but was it my fault, How am I to help,
I’m tired of this game,
every time they argue why I’m I the one to blame
But hey, its just a name
all i got do is learn to stay out there way
I just find it funny that there attitude would change
when my mum would come down,
now where’s all the calling names and rage
I live on to turn the page, spoke to social services and the family got replaced ace
having learnt to speak up, i learnt things can change and never to beat myself up
I see your true colours shining through
I see your true colours and thats why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them see your true colours
I see your true colours shining through
I see your true colours and thats why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them see your true colours
She’s like don’t trust them white devils
but she let me live with them
And have i got to go though this education with that idea in my system?
Call it a contradiction or non-fiction
as a kid I never really listened
I was too concerned on tryna fit in
not being isolated from the colours of my skin
Playing kirby, football and pogs
seems like were all the same when were playing games
I don’t want that to ever change
But I reminsce when reality hits
my friends are playing kiss chase with a couple chicks
It look fun so I thought I would join in until i heard your ugly
look at your black skin
get away from me
I see your true colours shining through
I see your true colours and thats why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them see your true colours
I see your true colours shining through
I see your true colours and thats why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them see your true colours
ooo child things are gona get easier
ooo child things will get brighter
ooo child things are gona get easier
things will get brighter
I moved from ABC to D
A family finally accepted me for me
True Colours was like for like
cause they knew there was more than what meets the eye
showed me love and care I couldn’t deny
showed me good manners, morals and high standards
even when I will ill behaved accepted the challenge
to make me a better young man
I was like the Fresh Prince
but parents can understand
so no nightmares on this street
I’m living healthy
with a good group of mates
(oh yo blud, bell me)
so I appreciate the colours that surround me
cause I’m more vivid than the way you first found me
so even though Ive been around be
They road to this path has been truly found
And I’m glad I got a family that are not here just for now
but forever
and I couldn’t ask for better
