The Shade

Letras
Modern day but feeling different

In recent years there′s a familiar scent

Back in school, man, I was used to it, yeah

Nothing defined me but the shade of my skin

Not the content of my soul

Ostracised and put aside, I never had control

Ten years on the clock but questioning what I'd been told

And I ain′t gonna sit here and scream for unity

'Cause I'm tired of starting dialogue

With those who don′t want it with me

But I′m still spreading kindness, that's the one virtue we need

So whilst I′m on my feet

I'ma give hope everything it needs, hey

′Cause this world is all of ours

(All of ours)

This world is all of ours, yeah

Four, five years same rhetoric

Some think that one type's heaven sent

The majority are peaceful beings

But drowned out by the cats who filter in unseen

We can′t let them set the pace (no)

We control the narrative with educated grace

Imagine seeing a world where everybody has their space

But I'm still in disbelief why we're still debating these things

It′s common sense that we progress when everyone wins

Ain′t here for a long time, don't let the shade put us all in teams

I sign off with these dreams (with these dreams), hey

′Cause this world is all of ours

(Alll of ours)

This world is all of ours
