Spend our lifetime reading    books that we've been told to   Are we catching the meaning?   Are we really supposed to?         It's time that we start seeing   the shades of color between the lines   Find a true way of being    Don’t you think we’re wasting time   Have you heard of Douglas town?   And the Irish of another skin   A million people have died there   how come we never heard a thing?   You envision a world without chains   Listen do you hear the call?   Dr. King and those who rise and fall   Fought so hard to bring peace to all         Chorus:   Can't you see   that not everything is black and white?    Can’t you see,   that we need each other's strength and might?   In this world of illusion    it's so easy to be blinded   out of created confusion   separation in minded         See if we can believe in   the truth that all our children know    It's about time we start thinking   it's not all about what we're told         Can't you see   that not everything is black and white?    Can't you feel   that we need each other's strength and might?    When we believe   that there's no need for these walls to grow    We'll all see   that it takes all colors to make this rainbow          Higher, higher, higher....(and so on)
