red...for the angry young skinhead 
with a gun stuck down his pants
and his hands wrapped around a gasoline can
blue...for the cruel nude tattoo
with a dagger slashing a heart in two
and the words "I'm cool, so screw you", yeah

I hope we can see there's more than one side
I know there's no such thing as race, just a human race
I hope we can see the world is not black and white

Color futurevision

green...for the hatred of the mean people 
and the victims they mistreat who could just as easily 
be you or me
violet...for the violence of a riot 
and the gunfire police siren
cars burning and people dying

I hope we can see there's more than one side
I know there's no such thing as race, just a human race
I hope we can see the world is not black and white

Color futurevision

black...for a black man on a black rock 
on a black night when America forgot 
to say "It's alright to be who you are"
white...for the white robe of Jesus Christ 
whose message was each one of us 
is equal in the eyes of God
