Hvze - COLORS

Remember when I was young
I'd color pages
Wonder what color I was based in
Would I take in
If my soul showed in a painting
I was thinking that I was red
Like the ranger
To become a leader was in my demeanor
But the tv showed me I was greener
Man I just wanted to be Tommy
Fighting with Rita Repulsa
Fuck doing things how I'm posta
Life isn't kosher
I was the guy with the most
Until I was fried offa doja
I became colder
When my teen years didn't seem clear I was smoking
I'd go the pier and I hoped and prayed
I would drown in the ocean
Cause I was feeling blue
It wasn't something I would really do
Though I still wasn't self pity proof
Nigga how you feel?
Invisible
Let me give you a different view
When I was a different dude
I developed a black heart
Took a look in the mirror now that's hard
Though regardless I know that's art
It was mad dark
Up at Planet's Park
In the tan bark
Feeling damn hard
Like a land shark
When my lamp sparked
Think i'm Mandark
If I'm that smart
If I ain't fitting up into they palette then i'm finna mix it up
Really give it up
Cause this is what happens when you just don't give a fuck
Now if I lose sleep
Turn to these lessons
Vibin through me
All of these blessings
Color my soul
Color my essence
Color my soul
Color my essence
Ima ride slow
Learn to be present
Hell if I don't
Search in the message
Color my soul
Color my essence
Color my soul
Color my
Now when it got difficult
I just didn't know
That my different goal
Had a principle
I was getting known as the kid with soul
Bringing that indigo
To decalcify
The callus eye
But the saddest lie can't satisfy
And that is why that woke shit
Is a motive to gratify
They say that the greatest ego trip is getting rid of it
Instead of swimming with the river people sit and fish
Picking bits and pieces that's convenient
I could see this with my own eyes
In my own life
I don't know why
Then I nosedived into coke lines
Now I know white
And my old life feel like gold by comparison
That gold life can't afford like i'm Harrison
No Kerrigan, I don't know ice
But I hope I don't die like i'm Marilyn
If I slowed time I would show signs that I care again
Cause shit is gray when you live this way
Wishing on a different day
I should've melded different clay but it's too late
Ain't shit the same
Now as I drip the paint
Canvassing love
All the pain and the baggage I just splash in the cup
Mixing up
Some new colors I can add to this stuff
So I can show that I know when my passion's enough
Cause as I roamed I had grown into rapping and such
So if you're bold you don't know where your path will end up
Or if your path is a crutch
Just a weight on your wings
Cause fam will spam with the love
While they nefariously scheme
Just know my flow so third degree
The pros don't worry me
My soul glow
Now if I lose sleep
Turn to these lessons
Vibin through me
All of these blessings
Color my soul
Color my essence
Color my soul
Color my essence
Ima ride slow
Learn to be present
Hell if I don't
Search in the message
Color my soul
Color my essence
Color my soul
Color my
