Lyrics
0:02Society
0:04Who＇s to say who loves who
0:07And on the colors of love
0:08Are we to be schooled
0:11Society
0:12Our minds bodies
0:13And souls will meet tolerance
0:15Society
0:16Put an end to ignorance
0:40Ask your momma can she feel it
0:44Does she know about my love
0:47Does she know you
0:48Got my heart in your hand
0:54Ask your momma
0:55Will she cry when she sees
0:58This 14k band of gold oh baby
1:02Wonder will she say
1:03What will I tell my friends
1:09Society＇s child
1:12Some people think I was born
1:14With a silver spoon in my mouth
1:19That isn＇t right
1:21That isn＇t right uh uh
1:23I had dreams of grandeur
1:25And I was labeled like Campbell soup
1:29Baby all I wanted to do was sing
1:34To you and love you true
1:37I see the looks down their noses
1:40I hear shots in the dark
1:44We sleep on no bed of roses
1:47Tug of wars on our hearts hey
1:51We think we＇re the perfect blend
1:55But they can＇t see
1:56Beyond the skin whoa
1:59Ask your momma does she remember
2:02The bible says about equals whoa
2:06Or is it this different
2:07When it hits this close to your home
2:13Ask your momma will the children suffer
2:17Or will they hate us for our dreams
2:19Oh baby
2:20I wonder will she say
2:21What will I tell my friends
2:28Society speaking
2:31Some of my best friends
2:32Are different shades
2:33It＇s a shame it＇s a crime
2:38They blow your mind time after time
2:41Baby
2:42I had pretty visions and I was labeled
2:46And I was robbed
2:48Baby all I wanted to do
2:52Was sing to you and love you true
2:56I see the looks down their noses
2:58I hear shots in the dark
3:03We sleep on no bed of roses
3:06Tug of wars on our hearts hey
3:10We think we＇re the perfect blend
3:13But they can＇t see beyond the skin
3:16Whoa
