Colors Of You Lyrics - Gravitas - Talib Kweli

Been around the world many times 

Seen many things 

And they in color too 

Seen women so beautiful 

That I could die with a smile on my face 

And not feel like the good lord gypped me 

(The space between love and me 

Between...) 

How you expect to have an ordinary relationship 

With such an extraordinary nigga 

Yea there's flaws in what you figured 

Ain't the liquor that got you considering calling up the sitter 

Telling her you need a couple hours and of course you tip her 

I like my fantasies, half stripper half glass slipper 

Wrappin' one like a riddle with enigma 

Character in my flip book 

Coming to life when I'm flipping through the pictures 

Switching up the positions 

My karma karma chameleon 

Change colors with the surroundings 

I can hear you with my eyes and I'm loving the way you sound 

And I'm smothering and I'm grindin' 

Now [?] is counting me out 

Loving in public when we coming and 

Up against the cupboard til we... 

(Look like turquoise) 

Right on the couch 

(Yellow on the bad day) 

Knocking it out without a doubt

(Colors of you) 

'Eyo the world is my coloring book 

Look, new discoveries every time 

When I color outside the lines 

(Color of you) 

My self expression 

Acquire every color in the spectrum 

My self reflection make the light change direction 

When you see it from this angle the colour, the cut the clarity 

Starts bringing me down that's the depravity of gravity 

Having me in my blue phase 

Go off the grid for a few days 

Go on a journey without a suitcase 

The security of obscurity in a world of respect 

And I'm trading it like a currency 

Currently you soft as a mallet hitting a xylophone 

He so yella I'm wishin' his fella right his wrong 

But naw, instead he is synthetic as styrofoam 

Recite a poem so monotone that they monochrome 

My light'll poke through the clouds 

We'll take you higher like you smoking the loud 

While I provide the dope kaleidoscope of sound 

You can see it with your ears 

You can hear it with your eyes 

You can feel it right here yea 

Photos 

(Colors of you) 

You don't look like turquoise 

You don't look like gold 

You don't look like purple 

That'll match your hue
