Sometimes we jump the train fare, to get to where we're going
Sometimes we're hooded up and so you hear the sirens start blowing
Get knocked up, we knock your girl up just to find a place to stay
House prices rising, wages stay the same as how it is today

We are all just colored souls
In these black and white towns we roam
We are all just colored souls
In these black and white towns we roam

Sometimes we reminisce about our school days when we were care free
'Cause thirteen grand a year means you are left with nothing but worries
And so we smoke away our problems or we drink until the sun comes up
Why does it always feel like who we've got is waiting for our numbers to come out

So many young faces all trying to find their places
See how these places forgot about these youth they created

We are all just colored souls
In these black and white towns we roam
We are all just colored souls
In these black and white towns we roam

With the PlayStation generation Xboxed up on your cctv
You can file us under hoody or asbo as you take away our identity
And still we sing

We are all just colored souls
In these black and white towns we roam
We are all just colored souls
In these black and white towns we roam
