Black and white
Not everything is black and white
But still we divide
Ourselves under the premises of wrong and right
Under a different light
Our problems look the same in time
A different side, and now I'm the enemy
But who is right, oh who is
Run, run away
Into the present, to the future
Run, run into the place where
Light surrounds you
And leave, leave behind
The tattered images engraved into our minds
Hate doesn't deserve a spotlight
Black and white
People are black and white
And everything in between
Though with walls unseen
We seem to be on separate sides
Black and white
The truth isn't always black and white
And there may not be one right way to fix this
But I know we're all guilty that it exists
And so I'll run, run away
Into the present, to the future
Run, running for that place where
Light surrounds you
And leave, leave behind
The tattered images engraved into our minds
Hate doesn't deserve a spotlight
So let's run, run away
From all of this into the future
And see, the ways that we're the same
All one people, many cultures
We need, we need each other
Sometime's the way's unclear and unsure
But I know that hate doesn't deserve a spotlight
