Lyrics
I'm lost
As I look around at false fires and fake prophecies
And I'm lost
Why should the Joneses plan my life for me?
I've got my hang-up, but brother, so have you
If I could find out who I am, there ain't nothin' I couldn't do
Color us all gray (Color us all gray)
One day our troubles gonna fade away
Well, I'm lost
As this world around me start to crumble and fall
And I'm lost
'Cause for my problem, they blame us all
But take this burden off my shoulders and place it in your lap
'Cause mom and dad got started on a generation gap
Color us all gray (Color us all gray)
One day our trouble gonna fade away
We'll come together one of these days
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Hey, I'm lost (I'm lost)
'Cause you discriminate against the color of my brother
And I'm lost
Does this color on me reflect all the bad deep within?
If black is black and white is white
If people were one shade, maybe they'd treat each other right
Color us all gray (Color us all gray)
One day our troubles gonna fade away
We'll come together one of these days
Hey, hey, I'm lost, I'm lost (Lost)
Gotta tell you people (I'm lost, lost)
That I'm lost
Hey, hey (I'm lost, lost)
Hey, hey, I'm lost (I'm lost, lost)
I just don't know what I'm gonna do (I'm lost, lost)
Once I'm lost
Hey, hey (I'm lost, lost)
I'm lost (I'm lost, lost)
I'm lost
