You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grins?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?
Or let the eagle tell you where he's been?
Can you sing with all the colors of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
How high does that sycamore grow?
If you cut it down then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper skinned
We need sing with all the voices of the mountain
We need paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the earth and still
All you'll own is earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
Yo Ease let's do this...
I am a nightmare walking, psychopath talking
King of my jungle just a gangster stalking
Living life like a firecracker quick is my fuse
Then dead as a deathpack the colors I choose
Red or Blue, Cuz or Blood, it just don't matter
Sucker die for your life when my shotgun scatters
We gangs of L.A. will never die - just multiply
You see they hit us then we hit them
Then we hit them and they hit us, man
It's like a war, ya know what I'm sayin'
People dont even understand
They don't even know what they dealing with
You wanna get rid of the gangs it's gonna take a lotta work
But people don't understand the size of this
This is no joke man, this is real
You don't know me, fool
You disown me, cool
I don't need your assistance, social persistance
Any problem I got I just put my fist in
My life is violent but violent is life
Peace is a dream, reality is a knife
My colors, my honour, my colors, my all
With my colors upon me one soldier stands tall
Tell me what have you left me, what have I got
Last night in cold blood my young brother got shot
My home got jacked
My mother's on crack
My sister can't work cause her arms show trax
Madness insanity live in profanity
Then some punk claimin' they understandin' me
Give me a break, what world do you live in
Death is my sect, guess my religion
Yo my brother was a gang banger
and all my homeboys bang
I don't know why I do it man, I just do it
I never had much of nuffin man
Look at you man, you've got everything going for yourself
and I ain't got nuffin man, I've got nuffin
I'm living in the ghetto man
just look at me man, look at me
My pants are saggin braided hair
suckers stare but I don't care
my game ain't knowelgde my game's fear
I've no remorse so squares beware
But my true mission is just revenge
you ain't in my sect, you ain't my friend
wear the wrong color your life could end
homocides my favorite venge
Listen to me man
no matter whatcha do don't ever join a gang
you don't wanna be in it man,
You're just gonna end up in a mix of dead freinds and time in jail I
know, if
I had a chance like you,
I would never be in a gang man
but I didn't have a chance
You know I wish i did
I'll just walk like a giant police defiant
you'll say to stop but I'll say that I cant
my gangs my family its all that I have
I'm a star, on the walls is my autograph
You don't like it, so you know where you can go
cause the streets are my stage and terror's my show
phsyco-analize tried diognising me wise
It was a joke brother the brutally died
But it was mine, so let me define
my territory don't cross the line
Don't try to act crazy
cause the bitch dont thank me
you can be read like a punk
it wouldn'ta made me
cause my colors death
thou we all want peace
but our war won't end,
they'll always see
See the wars of the street gangs will always get to me man
But I don't wanna be down with this situation man
but I'm in here, if I had something betta to do I think I'd do it but
right
now I'm just down here boye
I'm trying to get money cause I'm smart
I'm gunna get paid while I'm out here
I'm gunna get that paper, ya know what I'm saying
If I had a chance like you,
maybe I would be in school
but I'm not, I'm out here living day to day surviving
and I'm willing to die for my colors
Yo'll please stop, cause I want ya all to live.
Walking in the subway
Alone late at night
New York City gangs
Everywhere in sight
You feel their anger upon you
You feel their hatefull eyes
Walk a little faster now
You're fighting for your life
As they walk on closer
A sign that you board soon
You've come this far, no turning back
We hope you make it too
Don't expect, sympathy
We don't know, the word
You walked my turf, insanity
But in this place you die
Your life is wasted
Your blood is tasted
As it drips down the blade
You didn't make it
You couldn't take it
You walked the subway you paid
Your money's gone
Your clothes they're torn
You're lying in a pool of blood
You know you're leaving
We watch you grieving
But in this place you die
Don't expect sympathy
We don't know the word
You walked my turf, insanity

English Translation:
While worrying about the illusion
Reflected in the mirror,
Everything speeds up without notice
When they say I'm free to go wherever,
The guides for my incomplete desire
All turn grey.
The swaying flames
Are painting my dreams tonight
The tip of your brush
Isn't dried up yet?
If you can't see a blue sky, open up your blue umbrella.
Isn't that great? The canvas is yours.
A white flag is only raised when one has given up.
But now let it be crimson
Like the beckoning matador.
Under the discoloring florescent light
On the black and white of a chessboard
We met by chance
There was a time when we'd lost our way and held each other close
It's been a month since then. Do you remember?
I would have been happy just to have watched
The orange sunset next to you.
But the mouth (words) is the origin of catastrophe
Black clothes are only worn when
Praying for the deceased.
The mark of rouge leaves behind deep red purposely.
If you say you can only paint
Dreamless pictures
How many times must
I paint over the canvas?
A white flag is only raised
When you've given up
I saw some military hardware today
They changed the color
Olive drab
To yellow, brown, and grey
The color of our dead
Ahhh Ahh ah
All the needy still need
And all the losers still lose
All the preachers still preach
But they ain't bringin no change
I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change
All the low is still low
And all the high still get high
How I wish we could dance
But all these rhythms don't seem to match up
Seem to match up
I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change
Ohhhh ahhh ohhhh
Ahhhh ahhh ahhhh
Bits and bits of cane, burning burning burning
Bit by bit away
They grow as people grow
And glow as people glow
I'm not afraid to die
I am a nightmare walking, psychopath talking
King of my jungle just a gangster stalking
Living life like a firecracker quick is my fuse
Then dead as a deathpack the colors I choose
Red or Blue, Cuz or Blood, it just don't matter
Sucker die for your life when my shotgun scatters
We gangs of C.A. will never die - just multiply colors
You don't know me, fool
You disown me, pfs
I don't need your assistance, social persistence
Any problem I got I just put my fist in
My life is violent but violence is life
Peace is a dream, reality is a knife
My colors, my honour, my colors, my all
With my colors upon me one soldier stand tall
Tell me what have you left me, what have I got
Last night in cold blood my boy Eddie got shot
My homeboy got jacked
My momma's on crack
My sister can't work cause her arms show tracks
Violent insanity live in profanity
Then some punk claimin' they understandin' me
Give me a break, what world do you live in
Death is my sect, guess my religion
My pants are saggin' fucked up hair
Busters stare but I don't care
My game ain't knowledge my game's fear
I've no remorse so muthafucka beware
But my true mission is just revenge
You ain't in my sect, you ain't my friend
Wear the wrong color your life could end
Homicides my favorite binge colors
So I'll just walk like a giant, police defiant
You'll say to stop but I'll say that I can't
My gangs my family its all that I have
I'm a star, on the wall is my autograph
You don't like it, so you know where you can go
Cause the streets are my stage and terror's my show
Psycho-analyse try, diagnose me why
It wasn't your brother that brutally died
But it was mine, so let me define
My territory don't cross the line
Don't try to act crazy
Cause that shit won't faze me
If you ran like a punk
It wouldn't amaze me
Cause my colors' death
Though we all want peace
But our war won't end,
(feat. The Game, Rick Ross)
[Intro: Sean Kingston] (Rick Ross) {The Game}]
Yah mon!!! JR!!! Sean Kingston yuh know (Ross!) {And the doctor's advocate}
Beluga Heights! {Let's go}
[Chorus: Sean Kingston (The Game)]
Miami have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors (Californ-i-a)
Jamaica have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors (All the way to Dade County)
My jewels have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
My people die over colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
[Verse 1: The Game]
Check it! I'm the Bastard Of The Party, s*** start off off coke and bacardi
Bandanas tied around the dubs on the Ferarri
I'm the bloods to what Pac was to thugs
What Snoop is to crips I'm the California king
Let it be known, I reign Supreme like Kenneth McGriff
Reincarnated put me in Queens and give me a strip
A couple red tops while the feds watchin
Infiltrate get a head shot Compton is the city of God
My block originators I said blood one on a Dr. Dre track
Now the world is affiliated
Some authentic some n****s Milli Vanilli bangers
Some get smoked others smoke chronic out of philly papers
Game time is really Jacob watches got them silly faces
Add red rubies to the dial they 'gon really hate us
I inherited gang bangin from my mother
And what I didn't get from her I picked up watchin colors
[Chorus: Sean Kingston]
Colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
Jamaica have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
My jewels have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
My people die over colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
[Verse 2: Sean Kingston]
I'm from a world of different colors different faces
Different slang different races different gangs different places
Air Ones different laces
Different culture different livin different thugs different ages
The sky's blue the money's green the weed is purple
The ice is white you try me I'm a have to hurt you
Kingston boy I rep like no other
Black, yellow and green I bleed the Jamaican colors
The grill is cold the wheels is gold the chrome is silver
Nickel plated if it's blazin than the chrome will kill ya
Certain dudes get one in the head
Certain places you wear certain colors you dead
Fi yuh gang bang yuh diss mi yuh a dead man
Cau gunshot a be like drum pan weh mi come from
And it's the same old story
We don't give a damn about your guts and glory
[Chorus: Sean Kingston]
Miami have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
Jamaica have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
My jewels have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
My people die over colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
[Verse 3: Rick Ross]
Painted the car blue, that's for the sweat and blood
In my red tennis shoes fool cause the pain is love
I'm bout my green (Green) So my sky's blue (Blue)
Purple and the strawberry philly up in my five coupe
Yeah I'm in the yellow boss, they in the white gold
You might fold I'm platinum go ask them white hoes
I got black hoes slammin cadillac do's
Gettin cheese out a rat trap like I'm that close
Whippin keys in the back that's how I stack dough
Waitin on that jack boys get him in his afro
These a**holes must be gone on that crack smoke
Try to cross the boss well let's front 'em what they ask for
Uh! I'm in the thangs, ten tennis chains
That's how I present it to ya you think I got 'em ten a thang
He green as spinach just another lame middle man
Standin in the street wavin my flag in the middle lane
[Chorus: Sean Kingston]
Colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
Jamaica have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
My jewels have colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
My people die over colors, colors, colors, colors, colors
Don't get it confused
This message is for solo artists but I get at crews
We can make the news
I'll be on the low sippin daquiris in baton rogue
Or killing rock the bells with nas in pasanews
It's a small task for jay man
Wack niggas be dead and I be laughin
Sippin out my flask chillin in my ray bans
Imaginary crime boss
With albums full and look at my watch at how much my shine cost,
It's time lost
Who shot ya, the black bach blastin over opera
Phantom of the chakras
Jay doppla went from panhandling socks in box
To popular
This is just the start of it,
The kid intend to split more wigs than british parliament
Catch me on the global warmin tour with jigga and al gore
Performin dear summer, where autumn went
Eternal sunshine
Drum major without a drumlime
I'll be in the D screamin kick rocks to one time
When they say license and registration
I'm yellin reparations
Quote em from revelations
Then I peel off in they faces
Young black and arrogant with no id
The most extravagant
They should build me a statue on grambling campus
With a manuscript, that say he got at the best of them
Shot at the rest of them
Ain't no contesting em
Yesterday i got lost in the circus,
feeling like such a mess.
And now I'm down,
I'm just hanging on the corner.
I can't help but reminisce.
Cuz when you're gone,
all the colours fade.
When you're gone,
no new years day parade.
You're gone,
colours seem to fade.
Your mama called, she said,
that you're downstairs crying.
Feeling like such a mess.
Ya, i hear ya,
in the back ground balling.
What happened to your sweet summer time dress.
I know we all,
we all got our faults.
We get locked in our vaults,
and we stay..
When you're gone,
all the colours fade.
When you're gone,
no new years day parade.
You're gone,
colours seem to fade,
I can see the future, deep inside tomorrow
I can smell the burning, the way you feel
Guarding all the children, is not love the answer?
You cannot pretend your life is real
Can you see the colors changing
Just inside tomorrows skies?
Can you feel the winds of change
Blowing upon our lives?
Can you see the colors changing?
Just inside tomorrows skies
Can you feel the winds of change
Blowing upon our lives?
Can you see the future, well, within your sorrow?
Beyond your discerning, the fatal reel, ooh
Guarding all the children, is not love the answer?
You cannot pretend your life is real
Can you see the colors changing
Just inside tomorrows skies?
Can you feel the winds of change
Blowing upon our lives?
Can you see the colors changing
Just inside tomorrows skies?
Can you feel the winds of change
Blowing upon our lives?
Can you see the colors changing
Just inside tomorrows skies?
Can you feel the winds of change
Blowing upon our lives?
Now, let's take it back to January.
An overflowing heart, an empty wallet scene.
Some wheels and a guitar yeah, you think we're crazy.
Driving on the ways of the hot and free.
And so we just hold on.
I remember rolling through some state into a hotel scene,
With pennies to my name,
I remember thinking I can't sleep but she's loving me.
And so we just hold on.
Just hold on.
And here with you under these covers,
I'll stay with you there is no other.
We share a name, we share a wonder.
And on the roads ahead, we'll keep going further.
Woah, woah yeah.
And all the struggles and honorable mentions,
That pave our history we're all of my attention.
It's just surrounding you,
I forget all that has used me, bruised me,
Roaming on the thrill.
Cause here with you under these covers,
I'll stay with you there is no other.
We share a name, we share a wonder.
And on the roads ahead, we'll keep going further.
The rest is right, the rest is wrong.
The rest will come when it comes along.
The rest will find us, we belong here.
The rest is right, the rest is wrong.
The rest will come when it comes along.
The rest will find us, we belong here.
Oh, oh, oh yeah.
Cause here with you under these covers,
I'll stay with you there is no other.
We share a name, we share a wonder.
And on the roads ahead, we'll keep going further.
Cause here with you under these covers,
I'll stay with you there is no other.
We share a name, we share a wonder.
And on the roads ahead, we'll keep going further.
The rest is right, the rest is wrong.
The rest will come when it comes along.
The rest will find us, we belong here.

Beautiful sunrise in your eyes
Burning like a flame
Beautiful colors inside me
Calling out your name
You came down on me like summer rain
Wearing nothing but your love
I can't explain the shivers I get when you call my name
Painting rainbows on my soul
Beautiful sunrise in your eyes
Burning like a flame
Beautiful colors inside me
Calling out your name
Beautiful sunrise in your eyes
Burning like a flame
Beautiful colors inside me
Calling out your name
She's blown me away like an ocean storm
And she moved her lips to say: "Don't be afraid"
Here I am lost in your eyes to be found again
Cause you've changed my life today
Beautiful sunrise in your eyes
Burning like a flame
Beautiful colors inside me
Suddenly,
everything i've ever known disappears
like a thought in a dream
and returns to silence
there's nothing that i need
from the world behind
because it seems so faraway
I hear someone whisper into my ear
i turn around but find nothing there
until i look up
and i see colors of love
raining down on me
Ride the light
i'm stepping out into open sky
and i'm not afraid of falling
i'm not scared to let go
so beautiful
and everything i ever wanted
Blessings
flowing over me
growing
rolling over and over
never want to go back
to the way it was before
I hear someone whisper into my ear
i turn around but find nothing there
until i look up
and i see colors of love
Out of the blue
Everything seemed so new
The sun rising lights up my face
Fading from green
No more thoughts to deceive
For seasons of lost hope may change
Ahh - so many different colors
Ahh - The colors are changing
Moments in time
When the words didn't rhyme
Unsure what the future would hold
As days turned to nights
I chased rainbows of light
Finding no gold
No magical fountain of gold
Ahh - So many different colros
Ahh - The colors keep changing
So many different ways to look at things
I turn around I'/m upside down again
If nothing ever changes it's my point of view
That I can't lose
The skies fiery red
I will journey ahead
To show you how far I have flown
New day in my life
Flashing hope by design
I've finally found my way home
Ahh - So many different colors
Ahh - Now my world is slowly changing
So many different ways to look at things
If you've fallen down you gotta get back up again
So many different shades of everything
Now I see with open eyes a brighter world within
The skies forever changing that's the point of view
I just can't lose
This new born wisdom guides me through
Feel the cool winds of heaven
In the blue of your eyes
Dreams of you and I together
A love we cannot deny
Feel the tide of the ocean
On and on 'till I see your light
And the warmth of the sky
On and on
Passion breathes wtih emotion
We will soar
We will soar with wings on high
On high
On high...
So many different ways to look at things
If we've fallen down we gotta get back up again
So many different ways the colors change
Every time I turn around we're hanging on the edge
Our skies forever changing that's the point of view
I give to you
I know that time will see us through
We're listening to Nine Inch Nails in my car
I wonder when they'll find the body
7-Eleven's got so many bottles of juice
I love the colors
Back at the farm
We never got to sleep in the same room
I hated Uncle Max
I hope he isn't mad at me
Look out the window
See the colors
I love the colors
Colors
I love the colors
I might never sleep again
I might never dream again
But that's all right
Cause there's so many colors
I love green and red
Colors
I'll get you some blues
Colors
I love the colors
Someday I'd like to be on TV
Dead in your lap beside a gun
And a copy of Poison's Native Tongue
And some flowers of many different colors
I love the colors
Colors
I love the colors
We're listening to Nine Inch Nails in my car
Can you feel it crush you? Does it seem to bring the worst in you out?
There's no running away from these things that hold you down
Do they complicate you because they make you feel like this?
Of all the colors that you've shined this is surely not your best
But you should know these colors that you're shining are...
Surely not the best colors that you shine
I know you feel alone, yeah, and no one else can figure you out
But don't you ever turn away from the ones that help you down?
Well they'd love to save you. Don't you know they love to see you smile?
But these colors that you've shined are surely not your style
I know you're feeling like you're lost
But you should know these colors that you're shinin are
I know you're feeling like you're lost,
You feel you've drifted way too far
Did you know these colors that you're shinin' are
Surely not the best..
(I know you're feeling like you're lost)
Colors that you shine..
(but you should know these colors that you're shining are)
Surely not the best..
(I know you're feeling like you're lost you feel you`ve drifted way too far)
the beautiful contrast of the colors on the canvas
the way the bristles sway, the way you make my
hair alright
laugh at me cause my head turns out too big
we'll laugh it off
laugh it off
there's something about you i can't place
is it the obvious or the things we'll never say
i'll say something (anything)
it doesn't matter cause we're off to a good start
i'll brush up on waking up to you
concentrated breathing
bewilderment
at least you're honest
white canvas sits, yellow brush
runs across it as i watch
details never stop
picture this, a thousand words, a thousand times unspoken
and conversation breaks us down, our simple
lives are broken
fake tongue, real city
i never want it cause i know i could get it
hey girl (fake girl), looking pretty

Perfect with her purple kisses
Slack track number eight
From the tree maybe this is something you ain't neva see

Sippin on pink panties
In the stretched limousine

Words Music by Lennox/Stewart
The truth of life is the greatest gift
But I don't think I can make it fit
And who would guess it would come to this
When I've tried everything
And I should know but I can't explain
The endless noise sounding in my brain
Who would've thought
That you could feel such pain
When you've tried everything
Yeah you're a loser now
Yeah you're a loser
Now
I should be cool
But I'm burning hot
I should be good
But I fell apart
Don't look at me now don't even start
'Cause I've tried everything
Yeah... you're a loser now
Yeah... you're a loser now

Started in '85 when my town got turned out
Niggas from Cali brought to the Mid and we learned how
Blue or red paisleys powders was the start of the war and now
Unification that got the whole world concerned now
Middle of '91 I was jumped by a cause hive
Solely the reason I was introduced to the Blood Life
Niggas about they money, make it sunny at night fly
Whips and bitches and everythang was hung from the right side
We gettin it back bangin and ballin you feelin me strapped
With heavy artillery on streets and it's kill or be killed
40's of malt liquor and sherm was instilled in me
Taught to dump any nigga from differnt facilities
Real talk and it's real life, it's dangerous ain't it
Suburban lifes better think twice for you thinkin of bangin
Whatever town that you in if it's enriched in the flamin
Throw your bandanas in the sky and rep the gang that you claimin cause this is
Colors, live my life somely I'm a ride for my
Colors, blood in and blood out because niggas died for my

Colors, my nigga I'm probably gonna die for my [x2]

These are the missles that show you what the blood do
Blood in blood out now you got the blood drippin from your mouth
I'm a shout? watch the relliez go
Nigga know, if you ain't come to bang, what you came here for?

Bustin busta bitches black Burnelli make em freeze up
Ease up I got some shit that'll plant you like a tree stump
Givin em the business bang with Strange nigga please jump
Knuckle up, take it to the streets, take our shirts off
Go straight for your throat like a coyote and snatch your skirt off
I'm that nigga that will bring it to your block
Nigga fuck bein a goblin, I'm a muthafuckin?
Colors, live my life somely I'm a ride for my
Colors, blood in and blood out because niggas died for my

Color coordinatin goin to war, makin my knowledge evolve
Beffin with heat over colors, homie like Rocky and Frog
When we choppin poppin watch your partnas drop and dissolve
I can't be touched too long like a hot object honestly
I be the Nightcrawler just like relivin the true dream
You can tell I'm true, by the colors of my shoestrings
Yeah I'll murder your ambitions
And the game will cut deep in ya like a surgical incision
With verbular intuition from a vertical position
I represent the word that has no definition
All genuine and more pure than the soul of a Christian
Lyricly the big homie Kutty expose and depicts ya
Colors, fluctuate and keep a pistol in ya waist line
I got the whole city behind my back just like a state line
Colors, live my life somely I'm a ride for my
Colors, blood in and blood out because niggas died for my

Nice skirt, back at it, Calvin Harris, do it
[Verse 1: Laws]
Lemme design your fashion
Change gears till your eyes is matching
Go hard till I'm your passion
These others chicks thinking that they minds is gassed up
Yeah, I rhyme up with whatever
Swing by the crib, we can fuck or whatever
We can crush but you gotta get some colors on
Heart body, get your colors on
[Verse 2: Calvin Harris]
Now I don't care what you dress like or what you wear
But please make sure baby, you've got some colors in there
Now it's all very well stepping out in black and white
But you're no girlfriend of mine if you're doing that right
Now I don't care what you dress like or what you wear
But please make sure baby, you've got some colors in there
Now it's all very well stepping out in black and white
But you're no girlfriend of mine if you're doing that right
[Verse 3: Laws]
Lemme take you to my home, to my zone
To my bed, to the end and beginning of a friendship
You got me like what's your name? What's your size?
Are you mine? Are you some kind of black magic temptress?
I hope so 'cause my life's kind of ordinary
I need a woman, I've broken all sort of cherries
I need a tigress, I need a night prowler
I need a "Wanna try this? ", alright holler
I need a chick when I call, then she might follow
I got dope, if they raid, she might swallow
Don't be fronting mama, gonna bring some colors here
If your love is real, I might even scoop your mother
Yeah, I'm a underground buzz around, thunder sound
Cut you down, why you always sound like uh-uh-uh?
When you going down, going to town
Just deep breaths, start slowing it down, we got time ma
[Outro: Laws & Calvin Harris]
Get some colors on, we can crush but you gotta get some colors on
You heart body, go and get your colors on
Get some colors on, body paint, this is more than a cover song
I wrote this so you'll never want another song
Get some colors on, we can crush but you gotta get some colors on
You heart body, go and get your colors on
Get some colors on, body paint, this is more than a cover song

Sitting on the green green grass
I know the sky is blue
And I know that this is true
So, do you?
In this world, the rainbow has
So many colors to see
There is red, red, yellow and green
And there's blue
There are so many colors
What color are you?
When I look at the rainbow
I only see them with you
Red, yellow and blue and green
And I only see them with you
Red, yellow and blue and green
And I only see them with you
Red, yellow and blue and green
And I only see them with you
With you, with you, with you, with you
Sitting on the green green grass
I know the sky is blue

So, do you?

Has so many colors to see
There is red, red, yellow and green
And there's blue

And I only see them with you
Red, yellow and blue and green
And I only see them with you
I see red, white and black and gold
And white and blue and white and orange
And pink and white, blue and orange
Outside of my mind's window
And I, and I can only see them with you
Can you see them too, with me, with you?
Can you see them too, with me, with you?
With me, with you, with me, with you
I only see them with you
I only see them with you
I only see them with you
The color is fading from your face
Hold on, we'll get it back
Unless you don't want to replace it
We'll erase it
A new color is fading to your face
Hold on we'll push it back
Unless you want to embrace it
I'll just face it
So show me the world
Tell me that the colors I've been seeing
Are not while I was dreaming
Just show, show me your world
Tell me that the colors I've been needing
Are not the one's you're keeping away
There's something amiss
And I'm on to it
I'm onto you you
Tried on blue didn't you
Oh no oh no it's coming
That's the one color I can't see
Hold it or hold on to me
You tried on blue didn't you
Oh no oh no it's coming
So show me the world
Tell me that the colors I've been seeing
Are not while I was dreaming
Just show, show me your world
Tell me that the colors I've been needing
Are not the one's you're keeping away
Am I see through what's the use
If we were fading long ago
That's how it's gonna go
If you don't see me
Then you shouldn't be a part of my life
That's how it's gotta go
There's something missing from your eyes
It's killing off your smile
Keep pretending that you're fine
But you just lost your shine
So show me the world
Tell me that the colors I've been seeing
Are not while I was dreaming
Just show, show me your world
Tell me that the colors I've been needing

Guns come cheap. In the city with the burning river
She wants to trust me, but thinks of all the times i hurt her
if you wanna feel free play a song in a sorrowful rhythm
i know you hate me it would have meant a lot to get along (it's okay)
The higher we climb the further we fall
These happy times are stringing me along
write it on the wall this is my life
There's something about the look in your eyes
Guns aren't cheap in a world where the rich get richer
i wanna trust me its only that by now i know better
if you wanna reach your dreams you gotta make the world believers
I know you wanna leave, it would have meant a lot to get along
The higher we climb the further we fall
These happy times are stringing me along
write it on the wall this is my life
Stand your ground! Stay true! And brace yourself for certain doom!
When all hell breaks loose I'll be here waiting for you!
Well men it's been a pleasure,
It seems we've finally reached the end,
But who the fuck wants to live forever,
With the devil so much stronger than men
This is where we stand,
This is where we all fight back!
And I'm ready to rumble!
Look how my enemies fall in line,
Face to face with the baddest motherfucker alive!
And now put 'em up,
It's gonna be a bloodbath tonight boys!
Raise some hell!
Raise up the colors high!
This is my color and I'll where no other,
War is upon us you've taken your side,
This is my color, this is mine,
But don't tell me it's fate when you walk through those gates
And they ask you "just what did you live your life for?"
What I want I'll take and destiny can wait,
Make ready the sails, we're going to war!
It comes as no surprise,
I can tell by the fear in your eyes,
You look at me like I'm death itself,
Now die like a man and embrace hell!
This is where we fall,
This is where we all will die...
And us outlaws go
Wherever the wind may blow
No place to call my home
And no soul to call my own,
But here in the face of death,
I'll give 'em hell till my last breath,
No room left for regret
And if the devil knows what's best then better watch his fuckin' back!
These are my colors for you I raise them all!
Side by side we'll raise them high and we will never fall!
These are my colors for you I raise them all!
Side by side we'll raise them high and we will never fall!
Raise up the colors high!
This is my color and I'll where no other,
War is upon us you've taken your side,
This is my color, this is mine,
But don't tell me it's fate when you walk through those gates
And they ask you "just what did you live your life for?"
What I want I'll take and destiny can wait,
Make ready the sails, we're going to war!
The color is fading from your face
Hold on, we'll get it back
Unless you don't want to replace it
We'll erase it

I could not expect it more, and I can't lie
So you wait 'till the night, to bring out all your colors
Cause when you gonna get, it's up to you
And if you kept it clean and thought it through
And I won't be waiting home for you, and I won't be waiting
So talk all your talk to, whoever you want to
I'm not here, to tell you what to do
So talk all your talk to, whoever you want to

And everything seems to mean less to me!
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid dear
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid dear
Don't be afraid of the morning
I've come to take you away, take you away
Don't be afraid of the morning
I'll be there, waking up beside you, dear
So you wait 'till now, to figure this out
I could not expect it more, and I can't lie
So talk all your talk to, whoever you want to!
Now, let's take it back to January.
An overflowing heart, an empty wallet scene.
Some wheels and a guitar yeah, you think we're crazy.
Driving on the ways of the high and free.
And so we just hold on.
I remember rolling through some state into a hotel scene,
With pennies to my name,
I remember thinking I can't sleep but she's loving me.
And so we just hold on.
Just hold on.
And here with you under these colors,
I'll stay with you there is no other.
We share a name, we share a wonder.
And on the road ahead, we'll keep going further.
Woah, woah yeah.
And all the struggles and honorable mentions,
That pave our history we're all of my attention.
It's just surrounding you,
I forget all that has used me, bruised me,
Roaming on the thrill.
Cause here with you under these colors,
I'll stay with you there is no other.
We share a name, we share a wonder.
And on the road ahead, we'll keep going further.
The rest is right, the rest is wrong.
The rest will come when it comes along.
The rest will find us, we belong here.
The rest is right, the rest is wrong.
The rest will come when it comes along.
The rest will find us, we belong here.
Oh, oh, oh yeah.
Cause here with you under these colors,
I'll stay with you there is no other.
We share a name, we share a wonder.
And on the roads ahead, we'll keep going further.
Cause here with you under these colors,
I'll stay with you there is no other.
We share a name, we share a wonder.
And on the roads ahead, we'll keep going further.
The rest is right, the rest is wrong.
The rest will come when it comes along.
You don't have to ask me why
Because I know you understand
All the treasures of my life
Are right here in my hand
Suspended in a moment
No more breath to catch
If you hold on to your end
Maybe we can make this last
This is the greatest time of day
When all the clocks are spinning backwards
And all the ropes that bind begin to fray
And all the black and white turns into colors
I don't want to build a wall
Or draw a line across the sand
Because there's room for one and all
And this land is our land
Oh I hope this can go on and on and on
Before the skipping stone hits the surface of the pond
Oh I know that life is never very long
One second, then one minute, and then its gone
This is the greatest time of day
When all the clocks are spinning backwards
And all the ropes that bind begin to fray
And all the black and white turns into colors
You want to sink into the colors on the wall
But all the while you are the brightest of them all
This is the greatest time of day
When all the clocks are spinning backwards
And all the ropes that bind begin to fray
And all the black and white turns
This is the greatest time of day
When there's no you and there's no others
And all the rules grow wings and fly away
It's hard for me to say what I want from
You I have had 22 years of
Trying to form the words that somehow
Might mean I am feeling
So many colors in this distraction
Brown hair makes her lips more red
Words would not describe what I'm seeing
I try to hold my tongue but it's useless
She makes my heart scream color
I know by now she should have found me out, whoa, whoa
And every sense I have has been exhausted
But color makes her smile
She's always waiting for me to speak
But all she hears is whitest noise
Though I may not communicate my heart
She knows the color I'm screaming
She makes my heart scream color
I know by now she should have found me out, whoa, whoa
And every sense I have has been exhausted
But color makes her smile
I feel it coming, I feel it coming
I feel it coming, I feel it coming
I feel it coming, I feel it coming
I feel it coming on, on, on
Whoa, she makes my heart scream color
I know by now she should have found me out, whoa, whoa
And every sense I have has been exhausted
But color makes her smile
Yeah, she makes my heart scream color
She should have found me out, whoa, whoa
And every sense I have has been exhausted
I got my pencil, I’m gonna write them off
I’ve got 16 colors to try out.
On to the next one, yeah, that’s my winning number
Make blood thinner, pull me out.
Take it back, I know you will
Take it back, I know you will, will
I’ve got my hands full, moving away so long
I left my purpose in the dirt.
I’ll just assume a long, long winter
Make me a swimmer later on.
Take it back, I know you will,
Take it back, I know you will, will
Will you take it back, I know you well,
I know you will.
When the work is done all you have to do is
Think of something else, something easy to own.
I got my trash talk, I’m gonna call it off
I’ve got a list of insults to send out.
All of them new, possible winners
Make life thinner, pull me out.
Take it back, I know you will
Take it back, I know you will, will,
Will you take it back, I know, know you well,
Hail, salted wind that you walk into
You're back and forth like water underneath the moon
And where did you, you pick up those songs
You're walking and you brought a bit too much along
Inspect the souls on those old wood
The nights have been too likely to change too soon
Which town do you like the best?
Its too bad there's no ocean in Minneapolis
I'd like to show you this electric sea
And I'll sing an infinite electrified scream
A shrill shiver shrieks in my sweater of red
The most brilliant cerulean around your head
When I walk up you say hello
The most simple-mending, heart-bending
glimmer-gleam, pulse-fast-sending yellow
Oh orange, it must have glowed orange
