[Kojey Radical, Wretch 32 - Colour Purple lyrics]
The life that you wanna live
Ever spent your whole life waiting for
The life that you wanna live
Subtleties, summer breeze
Red wine, dungarees clear skies follow me
Everything is what it is
Hello, oh I feel colourful
Hello, oh I feel colourful
Hello, oh I feel colourful
Hello, oh I feel colourful
I feel golden today
That Monday blues brother
Boy was I blue brother, who
Was I fooling? excuses, excuses
Changing everyday ruby, Tuesday
I was 14 when I first knew I was black
Not by pigmentation but hatred
And fear attacks
Never learned to love what your
Page 3 for that
Loudest one talking was empty in fact Ergh
I remember that day like it was yester
Enough to leave a grown man
Pale like uncle Fester
I ain't had apology yet to cover bruises
Tried to complain but the system
Said it was useless
Ever spent your whole life waiting for
The life that you wanna live
Ever spent your whole life waiting for
The life that you wanna live
Subtleties, summer breeze
Red wine, dungarees clear skies follow me
Everything is what it is
Hello, oh I feel colourful
Hello, oh I feel colourful
Hello, oh I feel colourful
Hello, oh I feel colourful
All white suit when I die
I'll put the colour
My pen always kept me in line
When I was colouring my roots
Blossoming to the sky
They want a summer fling
The colour purple in my sight
I fell in love with it
My blood bleed red like a redneck
But my teeth? Them are whiter than them face
And my skins all dark like I’m Kinte
(Kunte Kinte) that means I had to sell
Green for that rent there
This is my palette, this is my talent
These watercolours got me feeling
Like I'm magic
This is my palette, this is my talent
These watercolours got me feeling
Like I'm magic
