if i told you he was your brother
you'd reminisce then you would go about your day
if said you oughta give him some of your water
you'd shake your canteen and walk away

and the perception taht divides you from him, is a lie
for some reason you never asked why
this is not a black white world
you can't afford to believe in your side

this is not a black and white world
to be alive i say the colors must swirl
and i believe that maybe today
we will all get to appreciate
the beauty of grey

if i told you she was your mother
would you analyze the situation and be gone?
if i said you oughta give her some of your water
your eyes would light up like the dawn

and the perception that divides you from her, is a lie
for some reason we never asked why
this is not a black white world
you can't afford to believe in your side

this is not a black and white world
to be alive i say the colors must swirl
and i believe that maybe today
we will all get to appreciate

the beauty of grey
the beauty of grey
the beauty of grey
the beauty of grey

look into your eyes
no daylight
new day now

this is not a black and white world
to be alive i say the colors must swirl
and i believe that maybe today
we will appreciate the beauty of grey

this is not a black and white world
to be alive i say the colors must swirl
and i believe that maybe today
we will all get appreciate
yes we will all get to appreciate

the beauty of grey
(repeat 8x)
