If you had a choice of your color, now could you tell me what it would be?
Red, yellow, brown, white or almond, yes
Transparent would work so good for me
And it doesn't matter the color of your skin
But what matters is your heart, your soul and your spirit down within
What if we were colorblind?
Yeah
What if we were colorblind?
If we were colorblind, would hatred remain?
How would we begin to heal the wounds inside of racism that has scarred our lives?
What if we were colorblind?
What if we were colorblind?
Could I be in your neighborhood?
We could play golf and be friends
And leave the past behind
If we were colorblind
She stood at the bus stop
Waiting patient
No
While the neighbors passed her by
And at six years old
She really couldn't understand
No, no, no
While some of them turned and rolled the ice
Listen
I was crushed by the moment
When Janet turned and said, Daddy, why?
I tried to change the subject
But the pain remained deep down inside
What if we were colorblind?
What if we were colorblind?
What if we were colorblind?
I was crushed
What if we were colorblind?
Could I be in your neighborhood?
Yes
We could fellowship and be friends
And treat each other right
And treat each other right
If we were colorblind
Oh
Hatred never hurts
Oh, hatred never hurts
The one that's being hated is the one that's being hated
And when you treat me bad
I start to feel violated
I'm gonna set myself in prayer
And you will, yes you will
Feel the blame
What if we were
Colorblind
What if we were
What if we were
Colorblind
When hatred remained
When we began
To heal the wounds inside
That has scarred our lives
What if we were
Colorblind
What if we were
What if we were
Could I be in your name today
And maybe we could be friends
And leave the past behind
If we were colorblind
