Color Us All Gray (I'm Lost) - The Impressions

I’m lost

As I look around at false fires and fake prophecies

And I’m lost

Why should the Joneses plan my life for me?

I’ve got my hang-up, but brother, so have you

If I could find out who I am, there ain’t nothin' I couldn’t do

Color us all gray (Color us all gray)

One day our troubles gonna fade away

Well, I’m lost

As this world around me start to crumble and fall

And I’m lost

'Cause for my problem, they blame us all

But take this burden off my shoulders and place it in your lap

'Cause mom and dad got started on a generation gap

Color us all gray (Color us all gray)

One day our trouble gonna fade away

We’ll come together one of these days

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Hey, I’m lost (I'm lost)

'Cause you discriminate against the color of my brother

And I’m lost

Does this color on me reflect all the bad deep within?

If black is black and white is white

If people were one shade, maybe they’d treat each other right

Color us all gray (Color us all gray)

One day our troubles gonna fade away

We’ll come together one of these days

Hey, hey, I’m lost, I’m lost (Lost)

Gotta tell you people (I'm lost, lost)

That I’m lost

Hey, hey (I'm lost, lost)

Hey, hey, I’m lost (I'm lost, lost)

I just don’t know what I’m gonna do (I'm lost, lost)

'Cause I’m lost

Hey, hey (I'm lost, lost)

I’m lost (I'm lost, lost)

I’m lost
