It's all about color If it's not green You won't be seen Nor would you be part of the scene It's all about color When black is the new devil, Red does no longer stand for evil Darker, lighter, softer or rough It becomes the stigma that strikes down Generations from their pride, And strips dignity away from heart It's all about color. Believe it or not, it’s all about color! When a simple tone sets all the rules, Tell me that it is not about color. When the color you grew in Stands for whom you are, Yet again, to myself I think Must be color! If I am night-like, I scare If I am day-like, I strip the night of its worth If I pale at sunrise and change with spring, I fall into One or Two, plus numbers But if I carry the star, my favorite color is green. So now, tell me that it is not about color!
