[intro: ayiesha woods and (john reuben)]
aw yeah
all god’s children
ooh ooh
(1… 2… 3… 4… huh)
[verse 1: ayiesha woods & (john reuben)]
pardon me, your epidermis is showing, sir
i couldn’t help but note your shade of melanin (shade of melanin)
i tip my hat to the colorful arrangement
’cause i see the beauty in the tones of our skin
[pre-chorus 1: ayiesha woods & the gotee brothers]
we’ve gotta come together
and thank the maker of us all
[chorus: the gotee brothers & (ayiesha woods)]
we’re colored people, and we live in a tainted place (colored people)
we’re colored people, and they call us the human race (colored people)
we’ve got a history so full of mistakes (colored people)
and we are colored people who depend on a holy grace
[verse 2: ayiesha woods]
a piece of canvas is only the beginning for
it takes on character with every loving stroke
this thing of beauty is the p-ssion of an artist’s heart
by god’s design, we are a skin kaleidoscope
[pre-chorus 2: ayiesha woods & the gotee brothers]
we’ve gotta come together
aren’t we all human, after all
[chorus: the gotee brothers & (ayiesha woods)]
we’re colored people, and we live in a tainted place (colored people)
we’re colored people, and they call us the human race (colored people)
we’ve got a history so full of mistakes (colored people, colored people)
and we are colored people who depend on a holy grace
[bridge: the gotee brothers & (ayiesha woods)]
ignorance has wronged some races (ignorance has wronged)
and vengeance is the lord’s (vengeance is the lord’s)
if we aspire to share this sp-ce (oh, if we aspire)
repentance is, repentance is the cure, ooh yeah
[interlude: john reuben]
1… 2… 3… 4… uh, huh
[rap: john reuben]
well, just a day in the shoes of a colorblind man
should make it easy for you to see (you to see)
that these diverse tones do more than cover our bones
as a part of our anatomy (woo-ah)
[chorus: the gotee brothers & (ayiesha woods)]
we’re colored people, and we live in a tainted place (colored people)
we’re colored people, and they call us the human race (colored people)
we’ve got a history so full of mistakes (colored people, colored people)
and we are colored people who depend on a holy grace
[hook: the gotee brothers]
we’re colored people, and they call us the human race (repentance is the cure)
we’re colored people, and we all gotta share this sp-ce (repentance is the cure)
we’re colored people, and we live in a tainted world (repentance is the cure)
we’re colored people, every man, woman, boy, and girl (repentance is the cure)
[outro: the gotee brothers & (ayiesha woods)]
(oh, we have to come together somehow)
(colored people, colored people, yeah-ah, yeah)
(oh, red, yellow, black and white)
(colored people, colored people)
repentance is the cure (ooh yeah)
