Colored People Lyrics - Welcome To The Freak Show: Dc Talk Live In Concert - Dc Talk

1, 1, 1, 1 

2, 2, 2, 2 

3, 3, 3, 3 

4, 4, 4, 4 

Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, sir 

I couldn't help but note your shade of melanin 

I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement 

'Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin 

We've gotta come together 

And thank the Maker of us all 

We're colored people, and we live in a tainted place 

We're colored people, and they call us the human race 

We've got a history so full of mistakes 

'Cause we are colored people who depend on a Holy Grace 

1, 1, 1, 1 

2, 2, 2, 2 

3, 3, 3, 3 

4, 4, 4, 4 

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? 

We're colored people, and we live in a tainted place 

We're colored people, and they call us the human race 

We've got a history so full of mistakes 

'Cause we are colored people who depend on a holy grace 

Ignorance has wronged some races 

And vengeance is the Lord's 

If we aspire to share this space 

Repentance is the cure 

1, 1, 1, 1 

2, 2, 2, 2 

3, 3, 3, 3 

4, 4, 4, 4 

Well, just a day in the shoes of a color 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 colored people, and we live in a tainted place 

We're colored people, and they call us the human race 

We've got a history so full of mistakes 

'Cause we are colored people who depend on a holy grace 

We're colored people, and they call us the human race 

Oh, colored people 

We're colored people, and we all gotta share this space 

Yeah we've got to come together somehow 

We're colored people, and we live in a tainted world 

Red, yellow, black and white 

We're colored people, every man, woman, boy, and girl 

Colored people, colored people, colored people, colored people, yeah
