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
(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

(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

(Colors of you)
'Eyo the world is my coloring book
Look, new discoveries every time
When I color outside the lines
(Colors of you)
'Eyo the world is my coloring book
Look, new discoveries every time
When I color outside the lines
