    Rainbow

    He grew up in the city
    Had a lot of money
    Sponging off his daddy all the time
    He lives in a bubble
    Never had to struggle
    He's far from the benefit line
    But he feels blue sometimes
    And he blood bleeds red like mine
    The grass is greener on the other side
    What I'm saying is we're all alike

    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    Let's share our pot of gold
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    Everybody's on the yellow brick road

    There's enough for you, you, you
    There's enough for me, me, me
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)

    There's mummy in the ghetto
    Gotta work it double
    Just to pay the bills and get by
    But more power to ya
    You're doing what you do-a
    Everybody's steady on the grime

    But you feel blue sometimes
    And you're blood bleeds red like mine
    The grass is greener on the other side
    What I'm saying is we're all alike

    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    Lets share our pot of gold
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    Everybody's on the yellow brick road

    There's enough for you, you, you
    There's enough for me, me, me
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)

    Hello, hello
    Why does everybody get so mad?
    Yellow, yellow
    It's the color for the battle in my head
    I have a beat in my life like love in my heart
    The sun up in the sky as we rock with the stars
    We just can't keep fighting anymore
    No, no, no

    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    Lets share our pot of gold
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    Everybody's on the yellow brick road

    There's enough for you, you, you
    There's enough for me, me, me
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
    We're the colors of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)

    We're the colors of the rainbow
    Yeah
    We're the colors of the rainbow
    Yeah
    We're the colors of the rainbow
