[verse 1: kevin max, with michael tait]
pardon me, your epidermis is showing, miss
i couldn’t help but note your shade of melanin
i tip my hat to the colorful arrangement
’cause i see the beauty in the tones of our skin

[pre+chorus 1: tobymac & michael tait, kevin max]
we’ve gotta come together (come together)
and thank the maker of us all

[chorus: tobymac & michael tait, kevin max]
we’re colored people and we live in a tainted place (colored people)
we’re colored people and they call us the human race (colored people)
we’ve got a history so full of mistakes (colored people)
and we are colored people who depend on a holy grace

[post+chorus: tobymac & michael tait]
hoo, yeah, a+ah oh
red and yellow, black and white
all are precious in his sight

[verse 2: kevin max, with michael tait, michael tait]
a piece of canvas is only the beginning for
it takes on character with every lovin’ stroke (ley+oo)
this thing of beauty is the passion for an artist’s heart
by god’s design, we are a skin kaleidosco+ope

we’ve gotta come together (come together)
aren’t we all human after all? (after all)

[bridge: tobymac & michael tait, kevin max, dc talk]
ignorance has wronged some races (it has wronged)
and vengeance is the lord’s (vengeance is the lord’s)

[breakdown: tobymac & michael tait]
well, just a day in the shoes of a colorblind man
should make it easy for you to see
that these diverse tones do more than cover our bones
as a part of our anatomy (ooh)

[outro: tobymac & michael tait, kevin max, tobymac, dc talk]
get ’em up! (that’s right)
we’re colored people and we live in a tainted place (colored people)
we’re colored people and they call us the human race (colored people)
we’ve got a history so full of mistakes (colored people)
and we are colored people who depend on a holy grace (ooh yeah)
we’re colored people and they call us the human race
colored people (ooh yeah, colored people)
we’ve got a history so full of mistakes (colored people)
we’re colored people and we all gotta share the sp+ce
colored people (yeah, we got to come together, come together right now)
we’re colored people and we live in a tainted world (colored people)
colored people (yeah, tones, black and white)
we’re colored people, every man, woman, boy, and girl (oh yeah, oh yeah)
colored people, colored people, colored people, colored people, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
oh, yeah
here we go!
one (one, one, one)
two (two, two, two)
three (three, three, three)
four (four, four, four)
oh yeah+eah o+oh
