Tobymac - Diverse City lyrics

rate me

They call us Diverse City, we're colorful good

It's like a freak show in your neighborhood

So, if you wanna praise you can come on down

Cause this freak show's leaving the ground

Up, up and away, baby we don't play, maybe you thought you was done for the day

He said, she said, I said this, that you can't get away from your moment of bliss

Stirring, we'll lure you in and we'll make room for the shade of skin

Short ones, tall ones, skinny ones, bigger, love is the gun and we pullin' that trigger

So you send me and I'll send you hope in the form of a new tattoo

Mine is the shiny city on a hill and yours, of course, is the colors that fill it

We'll take you high, we'll take you higher

Now come to the city where you can praise

If you're black, if you're white, if you're yellow or grey

In the morning, in the night, anytime of day

What's that place - Diverse City

With curls in your hair and braids on the side

Straight shake'em loose, just come on and ride

We're a body with parts, like you and me

Together we make diversity

Welcome to Diverse City, we're colorful good

It's like a freak show in your neighborhood

So, if you wanna praise you can come on down

Cause this freak show's leaving the ground

Said we're Diverse City, we're colorful goods

It's just a state of mind, we gonna shine the way that we should, baby

So, if you wanna praise you can come on down

Cause this freak show's leaving the ground

You bring the heart, I'll bring the soul

I'll bring the flag, you bring the pole

We'll fly it high so the whole world knows

The dream of a king 'bout to unfold

We 'bout to do this thing for real

Diverse City got mass appeal

So put your hand in the hand of mine

And we'll spread this love like dandelions
