Colour of you

In my people’s quest for true freedom
I pray that we unmask ourselves from everything that allows us to love
'cos love is true freedom
And that’s what freedom is

Painting a picture
With every word that I bring to you
Singing the colour of you
'Cos you know this
Love in the music
Love is the message I bring to you
Love is a colour of you

The day uh, it's a day uh
Open your eyes so you can see what I'm facing
Hoping you'll find that you're free like a Mason
Coping you're fine and you won't sink like a basin
Frozen in time so you redeem those chasing the cause
Freedom fighters, those saving us all
Read about us, those taking a fall
For your nation upholding their numbers
We are raking the morgues
Draw a line then we're breaking a law
Sometimes we stand still
Watching the government attend deals
With war lords who came to kill
Effects later man, we get the bill
The tax payer man he gets the sale
So we ask questions about the name
The shame and the pain we feel
And it's unfortunate
The same shit in every country on this continent
The same shit that makes us angry at the consequence
It's just some burning lanes
Steve Biko in a turning grave
I see a hero who came to save
Feeling lethal in the baddest way
'Cos love is the colour of you

Painting a picture
With every word that I bring to you
Singing the colour of you
'Cos you know this
Love in the music
Love is the message I bring to you
Love is a colour of you

Every song I sing is a portrait
Of freedom that love can bring
And with every melody you should see that
The colour of this love is a reflection of you

Open your eyes so you can see the sacrifice
That your forefathers gave to cushion you like pillow fights
I'm hoping you'll find that you will need a pen to write
How sick we define ourselves
I think we lost our minds when we towed the lines
The Philistines shoot first and ask last and
They'll break your spine, too fast, and guns blast when
They take your time and choose chance with no advancement
And my assessment is that we would need truth for clarity like a cat scan
I'm going insane, mad confusion
I'm losing my way, whatever road we're choosing
A product of rage, an optical illusion
Everything I do is just a cue to get me boozin'
Give me a heart to get me feeling human
To receive that freedom from skies
To redeem what we're feeling inside
Because fear is just a demon a lie
I shed a tear but I'm keeping alive
Because love is the colour of you and that's true

Painting a picture
With every word that I bring to you
Singing the colour of you
Coz you know this
Love in the music
Love is the message I bring to you
Love is a colour of you
Love is just a colour of
You you you you you
You you you you
You you you you you
You you you you you
You you you you you
You you you you you
You you you you you
You you you you you
