I Am/Shades Of Life (Real Ones)

I Am/Shades Of Life (Real Ones) Lyrics

I am black
I am white
I am all skins in between
I am young
I am old
I am each age that has been
I am scrawny
I am well fed
I am starving for attention
I am famous
I am cryptic
I am hardly worth a mention
I am short
I am height
I am any frame or stature
I am smart
I am challenged
I am striving for a future

(Chorus)
The color of sky is blues and grays
The color of earth is greens and browns
The color of hope is rainbows and purple
And the color of peace is people together

(Shades of life)
People together
(Shades of life)
(I am)

I am able
I am weak
I am some strength
I am none
I am being
I am thought
I am all things said and done
I am born
I am died
I am dust of humble roots
I am grace
I am pain
I am labor of willed fruits
I am slave
I am free
I am bonded to my life
I am rich
I am poor
I am wealth of real strife

(Chorus)

I am shadow
I am glory
I am hiding from my shame
I am hero
I am loser
I am yearning for a name
I am empty
I am proud
I am seeking my tomorrow
I am growing
I am fading
I am hope amid the sorrow

(Boy speaking)
I am certain
I am doubtful
I am desperate for solutions
I am leader
I am student
I am fate and evolutions

(Billy singing)
I am spirit
I am voice
I am memory not recalled
I am chance
I am cause
I am effort, blocked and walled
I am hymn
I am heard
I am reasoned without rhymes
I am past
I am nearing
I am present in all times
I am many
I am no one
I am seasoned by each being
I am me
I am you
I am all-souls now decreeing

(Chorus)
