Текст песни DC Talk - Colored People
Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, sir
I couldn't help but note your shade of melanin
I tip my hat to the colourful arrangement
Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin
We've gotta come together
And thank the Maker of us all
CHORUS:
We're coloured people, and we live in a tainted place
We're coloured people, and they call us the human race
We've got a history so full of mistakes
And we are coloured people who depend on a Holy Grace
A piece of canvas is only the beginning for
It takes on character with every loving stroke
This thing of beauty is the passion of an Artist's heart
By God's design, we are a skin kaleidoscope
We've gotta come together,
Aren't we all human after all?
Ignorance has wronged some races
And vengeance is the Lord's
If we aspire to share this space
Repentance is the cure
Well, just a day in the shoes of a colour blind man
Should make it easy for you to see
That these diverse tones do more than cover our bones
As a part of our anatomy
We're coloured people, and they call us the human race
[Oh, coloured people]
We're coloured people, and we all gotta share this space
[Yeah we've got to come together somehow]
We're coloured people, and we live in a tainted world
[Red and yellow, black and white]
We're coloured people, every man, woman, boy, and girl
[Coloured people, coloured people, coloured people, coloured people, yeah]
