Colors I Can’t Hide

They told me to paint in gray,

But my heart bleeds brighter shades.

Every line, a fight inside,

Every sound, a truth I hide.

These are colors I can’t hide,

Flowing deep from where I cry.

Even if the world turns cold,

I’ll keep shining, pure and bold.

Dreams don’t sell, they softly burn,

Still, I play — still, I learn.

Empty stage and sleepless mind,

Peace is hard, but hope I find.

These are colors I can’t hide,

Flowing deep from where I cry.

Even if the world turns cold,

I’ll keep shining, pure and bold.

Let them judge, let them fade,

Truth was never made for trade.

In the dark, my soul’s alive,

In my sound, I still survive.

When the morning paints the sky,

I’ll still sing, I’ll still try.

These are colors, these are me,

Songs of silent honesty.
