lyrics for : what are colours?
written by :abide.n / Ben Vlasveld
beat production , recording , mixing and mastering and cuts by: DJ K-Rec / Kent Stephany

Intro: don't hold back, but emanate that light that's within/ and don't be afraid to colour outside of the lines, when your colouring.

Verse 1: watered down sounds drown out so I'll swim/ to rise above the mark with all heart skim the brim/ words leap speak vibrant like melanin / I'm near from the eardrum, thought I'd settle in/ it's been a blast so far tip a jar into a verse/ if it's black and white strobing got you open to disperse / magenta when this enters the centre were it works / past styles like pastels permeate , searching for a blank canvas , to take full advantage / it's not a forceful entry gently I will lavish/ the beats pound to pound out all the savage/ what are colours for? to combine flow with with matters , primary , find every lyrics been pre-drenched in dye/ spilling killing them with a life supply/ I'll try for fun to get this job done/ I'm a colourful character and my ink runs since day one.

Chorus: watercolours , what are colours? what are colours, the opposite of grey/ watercolours , what are colours ? what are colours, this is how myself I'll display. ( repeats)

Verse 2: So it's never faint when I paint making music to infuse you/ verbal pictures, to shape the way you may view/ your reflections a projection to stay true to/ evade a grey puddle far from subtle don't fade into/ superficial faces or habitual complaisance , the opposite of being a copy is courageous / real changes only occur when pure the aim is , so if it's all the same then leave a stain that's contagious / the Creators never made junk, your brilliant resilient to not be lumped into a , category categorized as poor the, richness to witness is like matrimony/ between something classic and something fantastic / colour pours in like a flask to plaster, a depiction cause all inhibitions I lack/ so pollute it to improve it when the fluid comes out of the tap.

Chorus repeats

Dope cuts!
