 Send "True Colors" Ringtone to your Cell 

 												
														   I see you're true colors
shinning through I see your true colors and that
why I love you 

I see your (one for the
ghetto) true colors shinning through (straight
up) I see your true (I am make it out) colors and
that's why I love you 



Yo father
forgive we all trying to survive were we live 

I'd rather feed the homeless and take time talk
to the kids

Show them that life ain't no
walk on the bridge 

Damn as hard it is when
I be dreaming I be talking to Big 

In my
hood it ain't no yellow brick road you hear the
shots echo 

Sneakers hanging from a
telephone poll 

In my ghetto there aint no
rainbow or pots o gold 

But there was love
from the family when times were cold 

I sit
an analyze the world from my roof seen the hope in
the eyes of the trouble youth 

A good killa
kept a burner in his bubble goose a mother less
child lost in these streets lose 

In the
murder days these are rainy days my man got poped
at an early age 

His college fund saved
flipped into his grave they say the good die
young were headed for them pearly gates 



I see you're true colors shinning
through I see your true colors and that why I
love you 

I see your true colors shinning
through I see your true colors and that's why I
love you 



Yo they say this love
wasn't meant to be 

Two people from
different worlds we wasn't be 

It must have
been faith you were sent to me 

Will make it
threw these hard times eventually 

The
standard fight brought by faith not by sight 

We all the same color when u turn out the
lights 

I take the sunshine with the pain


Grab my Sara gone sad that when it rains


No French kept the food on the window
pain

We all breath the same air so we all
the same

I am trapped in this ghetto maze
trying to make it out 

If you don't
