letra de colour of my skin - troy kingi

[intro]
colour of my skin
colour of my skin

[verse 1]
the footings of your house sit upon a stolen wealth
survived so long on tall tales passed down
the history books always overlooked the freedoms that you took

one people pushed out to make way for holy things
another brought in to take care of future kings
one day your empire will come sinking into the sand
‘cos you’re not for the land
it’s all about equity in the hand

[chorus]
when the final fish is caught and all the rivers are gone
when the sky is beaten you’ll finally see that money can’t be eatеn
i know my ancestors were takеn from other lands
fought endlessly for equality
yet i’m still judged by the colour of my… skin

[verse 2]
what’s more important the people or the flag?
go off and go burn your nikes
there’s some super dark stuff that n0body wanna talk about
as long as i got my 2nd amendment
people k!lled while others watch from golden clouds
ain’t ask for nothing but a chance to make their mama proud
we are statistics now just numbers in a native crowd
i fight the greed so those who went before can get some peace

[chorus]
when the final fish is caught and all the rivers are gone
when the sky is beaten you’ll finally see that money can’t be eaten
i know my ancestors were taken from other lands
fought endlessly for equality
yet i’m still judged by the colour of my… skin

[bridge]
stand up
come on and raise ’em up
gotta be more common sense then a nuclear defense
it’s power to the people
‘cos we were all made equal
the few at the top
yes, we have to chop them off
you got to use your voice
shout scream come make some noise
we see the rich get richer
but we get clearer picture
we are the majority
so here’s some clarity
united we are powerful
no monster could ever overthrow
[chorus]
when the final fish is caught and all the rivers are gone
when the sky is beaten you’ll finally see that money can’t be eaten
i know my ancestors were taken from other lands
fought endlessly for equality
yet i’m still judged by the colour
