What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
You with sad the sad eyes
2
Don't be discouraged, oh I realize
3
It's hard to take courage
4
In a world full of people
5
You can lose sight of it all
6
All the dreams inside you
7
But you feel so small
8
I can name a couple things that should never change
9
Like the feeling of happiness that you get
10
when you're with friends on a summer day
11
The simple things: how we work, how we play
12
How we all should treat each other the same
13
You know acceptance isn't easy though; it challenges us all in some way
14
Weather its color, age, gender or race
15
We get uncomfortable when someone else is different
16
And they enter our space and it pressures us to be open to change
17
But take a moment,
18
flip the script and try to picture this with roles rearranged
19
Because you're different you experience hate
20
Mistreated not because of actions that you've taken or a terrible mistake
21
But hated on because of your DNA
22
I see your true colors shining through
23
I see your true colors and that's why I love you
24
So don't be afraid to let them show
25
Your true colors, your true colors
26
It's crazy all the types people we can characterize
27
We laugh when friends tell us a story and they start to describe
28
In funny ways a group of people through a stereotype
29
But when it's pointed back at you, hold up, that isn't true
30
You see it's never doing harm until it feels unfair
31
And then we speak up but wonder why no one else cares
32
I think the truth is that we all just want a place to fit in
33
It's hard enough to find friends, much less for some other kid
34
But if we're honest inside
35
And really wanna do right
36
Judging others for something they have no control over might
37
Be comical at times, but that'd make me less of a man
38
The bigger thing I think is standing as a leader instead
39
I see your true colors shining through
40
I see your true colors and that's why I love you
41
So don't be afraid to let them show
42
Your true colors, your true colors
43
I keep believing for the day we put our difference aside
44
And let a person be themselves before we cover our eyes
45
Imagine life without the boundaries we create with our pride
46
And opportunities we lose because we judge from inside
47
I'm just a kid but now I'm trying hard to rationalize
48
How somebody can spot a splinter with a log in their eye
49
There's a legacy that we're leaving and it's greater than us
50
Cause the truth is that we're all equal and the answer is love
51
I see your true colors shining through
52
I see your true colors and that's why I love you
53
So don't be afraid to let them show
54
Your true colors, your true colors
55
Are beautiful like a rainbow
56
There's always room for change
