Is this one for the people?
Is this one for the Lord?
Or do I simply serenade for things I must afford
You can jumble them together, my conflict still remains
For holiness is calling, in the midst of courting fame
Cause I see the trust in their eyes
Though the sky is falling
They need Your love in thier lives

Under these circumstances, they can hardly cope
Notice their fleeting glances and their lack of hope
I offer this suggestion, they don’t seem to care-o
This is my generation, drowning in despair-o

You’ll never find peace of mind in a sea of wealth
You’ll never find peace of mind in […]

It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said
Cause I had […]

[1, 2, 3]

I despise my own behavior
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
That I’m still a man in need of a Savior
(chorus)
I wanna be in the […]

Pardon me, your epidermis is showing
I couldn’t help but note your shade of melanin
I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement
Cause I see (the) beauty in the tones of our skin
We gotta come together, and thank the maker of us all
We’re colored people, and we live in a tainted place
We’re colored people, and they call […]
