In Living Color

[namkcuR]

we see everything
in black and white
and it's blinding us
from seeing wrong and right

did we ever stop to think
about the people beneath the issues
ever care what it is they feel
or try to walk a mile in their shoes

did we ever stop to think
about the mother whose son died at war
about the pain that she is in
or her tears falling down to the floor

did we ever stop to think
about the millions dying all the time
while we argue over money
which cause deserves the biggest dime

did we ever stop to think
about the person hooked to life support
trapped inside her own body
while her well-being is discussed in court

on and on and on it goes

and did we ever stop to think
about the people beneath the issues
ever care what it is they feel
or try to walk a mile in their shoes

did we ever try to see the world
through the eyes of someone other
did we ever try to see the world
real, live and in living color

we see everything
in black and white
and it's blinding us
from seeing wrong and right

I like the concept of this song

 

[ZeroDude]

Easy to grasp onto with a great sentiment, nice work

i like it

i like the first/last stanza a lot

i also like it how you keep the same rythm the whole way through, and then you say "on and on it goes". The rythm takes on the role of the thing that goes on, if you get my meaning
