[00:10.58] When you see my red, black and green
[00:12.67] Watch your tongue when you talk to me
[00:14.76] 'Cause this what I'm bleedin'
[00:16.58] This ain't no season
[00:17.86] If you think this'll ever die that's reachin'
[00:19.12] This my pulse

[00:22.55] These are my colours

[00:25.78] Don't forget my colours
[00:28.65] Don't try to divide us
[00:29.69] 'Cause it ain't gonna work in the slightest
[00:31.52] Survived everyone that tried it
[00:33.38] That's why these are my, yeah, colours
[00:36.53] These are my colours
[00:38.18] These are my colours
[00:39.75] Don't forget my colours
[00:41.83] Three stripes can lead us forth
[00:43.47] The red, we bleed in wars
[00:45.27] Black for the power we need restored
[00:46.55] Green's what the powers have thieved us for
[00:48.46] Yeah
[00:49.26] They treat us poor
[00:50.05] Like we need 'em, but they need us more
[00:51.86] Punchin' down and they get kicks out of it
[00:53.72] Like lootin' a sneaker store
[00:55.39] Trust, they keep engineering our civil wars
[00:57.43] We needa build bridges
[00:58.55] And close the gap in our understandin'
[00:59.84] Who really advancin' from killin' scores?
[01:01.48] They playin' with us, with no respawn
[01:03.03] Got kings and queens tryna be pawns
[01:04.62] Double agents in these dorms
[01:06.44] Been clout chasin' since they was born
[01:08.00] But these are my
[01:09.09] These are my brothers
[01:10.17] These are my sisters
[01:10.92] These are my cousins
[01:11.73] Show me that red, black, green
[01:13.32] All lookin' so clean
[01:14.11] These are my colours
[01:15.19] All of 'em mark us
[01:15.92] I'm well read, grounded, seasoned
[01:17.53] Thoughts black like Tariq T speakin'
[01:19.17] I'll walk a green mile before I'm ceasin'
[01:20.95] This what I'm breathin'
[01:22.02] This what I'm
[01:23.32] This what I'm bleedin'
[01:25.18] This ain't no season

[01:45.13] These are my colours
[01:47.03] These are my colours
[01:48.34] Don't forget my colours
[01:49.97] All facts I'm comin' clean
[01:51.55] I only care about the colour green
[01:53.09] They call us black with a bunch of things
[01:54.68] You ever thought about what it means?
[01:56.53] Outside I'm a green guy
[01:58.16] Only care about green lives
[02:00.00] Where my hood is at, that's the green side
[02:01.67] Shorty bad with the green eyes
[02:03.48] But she late to visit on green time
[02:05.01] Monolithic with a green mind
[02:06.97] Viridescent like I'm seaside
[02:08.50] And the only dollar is the green kind
[02:10.05] Ill-fated to be melanated
[02:11.95] Colour shaded to be understated
[02:13.55] Not debatin' over colour cadence
[02:15.37] 'Cause all the races they were innovated
[02:16.97] That's green love, green pride
[02:18.75] Green power with some bean pies
[02:20.37] Stereotypes get intertwined
[02:21.97] These colour codes that we livin' by
[02:24.08] Got dark folks gettin' victimized
[02:25.33] This verse here just an exercise
[02:27.13] Switch green and black for every single line
[02:29.08] See the fact that we minimized by colours
[02:32.16] This what I'm bleedin'
[02:33.72] This ain't no season
[02:34.77] If you think this'll ever die that's reachin'

[02:45.56] Don't try to divide us
[02:46.86] 'Cause it ain't gonna work in the slightest
[02:48.71] Survived everyone that tried it
[02:50.59] That's why these are my, yeah, colours
[02:53.43] These are my colours
[02:55.32] These are my colours
[02:56.97] Don't forget my colours
