Toby Mac - Diverse City

They call us Diverse City,
we're color forgood.
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 the 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 color forgood.
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 color forgood!
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 candy lines!
