A SONG A DAY lyrics : "Chocolate People"
I was in school, elementary and
Finding out I was different from my peers
And I , just wanted to blend right in
But my tan hands said different, I
Couldn't see the sweet Side of things
She sat me down, bought an Ice cream cone
Told me, listen up & listen long
Your color your shade, is perfect
Nothings wrong
What you can't see is we're all born
With the same sugar & the same love
life just added color to yours
But underneath we're the same human beings
All kinds of sweet, just love wrapped differently
I tell you
We're all just chocolate people
Rather you're brown white or in the middle
Love is sweet, no race no color
Baby We're all just chocolate people
Youre sweet he used to tell me
Loved my brown skin & my hair curly
I was growing up, trying different things
And I , didn't care that we stood out
When we held hands in a crowd
His color, my color, made no difference to me
I used to , take his hand and compare mine
we had the, same veins & the same lines
Your chocolate, my chocolate, blends
oh So well indeed
See what I could see, is that we we're born
with the same sugar & the same love
your color meant nothing to me
cuz underneath we're the same kinda being
all kinds of sweet, just wrapped up differently
We're all just chocolate people
Rather you're brown white or in the middle
Sugar is sweet don't matter the color
I promise we're all just chocolate people
Just people
