Lorenzo Asher - The Color of Ignorance Lyrics
(Verse)Say goodbye to the past, see our lives on the crashShe makes breakfast in bed, watch the sun rise off of a glassSuck all the poverty, turn right on power street,Sucking the flower leaves that comes to my circle*****, this a conference, hell, I can call common please,That’s common pleas environmentalist they hunt just for funVote republican, plus don’t give a ***** about the public, just fortuneFive hundred companies,Take what you want from us less fortunateCan’t see our sorrow, portrait it from behind the walls or fortressesForbes list orchestras orchid and orifices is gorgeous, it isn’t it?The horror this is, the rest of the world doubt its importanceI grand it’s deep.The shadow government and we are all sheep.Even the president it’s just a pump beast.That’s a small piece of our grief, we just want peace to peaceful riotsOn the wallstreet, oh, you should try it.She lives in a mansion and me I don’tShe got trust funds, I just have hope,So it seems, parents are racist, but religion, that’s hate.That’s ridiculous, spirituality’s faith, don’t be ambiguous,So if she’s light and I’m dark and it feels right in our heartsBut shade of skin do us part, then what’s the color of ignoranceCause I swear that I thought Noah created an archAnd segregated, pigmentation didn’t matter in biblical situationsIdiot, trying to rationalize irrationality and actualityEmbarrassed by my nationality.And I shouldn’t have to feel that way, shouldn’t have to kneel that way500 deaths in Chicago, I bet some kids got killed today.Society could kill less than eminence,As long as those bodies are black, then live with it.Color of ignorance.(Hook)And uh, maybe I’m attached to you,But I don’t really come over, girl,Girl, I don’t really want to hunt you.Onto you, onto you, baby they’re onto you, onto youBaby, they’re onto you, onto you,Baby, they’re onto you, they’re onto you.(Hook)And uh, maybe I’m attached to you,But I don’t really come over, girl,Girl, I don’t really want to hunt you.Onto you, onto you, baby they’re onto you, onto youBaby, they’re onto you, onto you,Baby, they’re onto you, they’re onto you.Say goodbye to the pastSee our lives in the crashShe makes breakfast in bedWatch the sunrise off of a glassSociety would kill less than eminenceAs long as those bodies are black to live with it.Racism, a nasty word that conscience thoughts and oppressive deedsMade by men because of creedDiscrimination, another one,The bonds are mines and sharp tonguesBecause of some would lead in darknessUnjust and playing onFighting wars because of God, trembling on the underdogBut we have legislation to banish discriminationEqual opportunity’s the current phraseOr encantation.The rules and laws are neededWhere some of us were there to think of ways to denigrate others on this earthOur place, racism? There’s just one human race.No matter what form the faceAnd discrimination, a faculty we all possesTo separate what’s bad from bestDiscrimination would be goodIf it would be used for what it doesThen we would be nice, all of us.
