Colors
Cris Cab feat. Mike Posner Lyrics

Been around the world many times
I have traveled the world extensively

Seen many things
I have experienced a lot

And they in color too
I have seen many vibrant things

Seen women so beautiful
I have seen incredibly attractive women

That I could die with a smile on my face
They were breathtaking

And not feel like the good lord gypped me
I would feel satisfied and not cheated by fate

(The space between love and me
(The distance between love and me)

Between)

How you expect to have an ordinary relationship
How can you expect a normal relationship

With such an extraordinary nigga
With a man as exceptional as me

Yea there's flaws in what you figured
Yes, there are shortcomings in your expectations

Ain't the liquor that got you considering calling up the sitter
It's not just the alcohol that's making you consider hiring a babysitter

Telling her you need a couple hours and of course you tip her
Telling her you need a few hours and of course, tipping her

I like my fantasies, half stripper half glass slipper
I enjoy my fantasies, a mix of erotic and romantic

Wrappin' one like a riddle with enigma
Puzzling and mysterious like a brainteaser

Character in my flip book
An image depicted in my flip book

Coming to life when I'm flipping through the pictures
It comes to life when I flip through the pages

Switching up the positions
Changing positions

My karma karma chameleon
My karma changes according to my surroundings

Change colors with the surroundings
I adapt to my surroundings

I can hear you with my eyes and I'm loving the way you sound
I can sense your emotions and I love your vibe

And I'm smothering and I'm grindin'
And I'm passionate and persistent

Now [?] is counting me out
Now someone is underestimating me

Loving in public when we coming and
Expressing our love publicly

Up against the cupboard til we...
Against the cupboard until we...

(Look like turquoise)
(We resemble the color turquoise)

Right on the couch
Right there on the couch

(Yellow on the bad day)
(Yellow on a bad day)

Knocking it out without a doubt
Getting it done without hesitation

(Colors of you)
(Your personal colors)

'Eyo the world is my coloring book
The entire world is my canvas

Look, new discoveries every time
Constantly discovering new things

When I color outside the lines
When I break free from traditional constraints

(Color of you)
(Your personal color)

My self expression
My way of expressing myself

Acquire every color in the spectrum
Including every shade and hue

My self reflection make the light change direction
My introspection causes perspective shifts

When you see it from this angle the colour, the cut the clarity
When viewed from a certain angle, the color, cut, and clarity becomes apparent

Starts bringing me down that's the depravity of gravity
This realization can be disheartening, like the downside of gravity

Having me in my blue phase
Making me feel melancholy

Go off the grid for a few days
Disappear for a short while

Go on a journey without a suitcase
Travel without luggage

The security of obscurity in a world of respect
Feeling secure in obscurity in a world that values fame

And I'm trading it like a currency
I am exchanging it like money

Currently you soft as a mallet hitting a xylophone
You are currently very weak

He so yella I'm wishin' his fella right his wrong
You are so cowardly, I wish someone else would correct your mistakes

But naw, instead he is synthetic as styrofoam
But no, instead he is fake like styrofoam

Recite a poem so monotone that they monochrome
Reciting a poem so lifeless that it seems colorless

My light'll poke through the clouds
My spirit will shine through difficulties

We'll take you higher like you smoking the loud
We will uplift you like a potent strain of marijuana

While I provide the dope kaleidoscope of sound
While I create an amazing array of sound

You can see it with your ears
You can experience it with your sense of hearing

You can hear it with your eyes
You can experience it with your sight

You can feel it right here yea
You can sense it in your heart and soul

(Colors of you)
(Your personal colors)

You don't look like turquoise
You don't resemble the color turquoise

You don't look like gold
You don't resemble the color gold

You don't look like purple
You don't resemble the color purple

That'll match your hue
That would complement your coloring

('Eyo the world is my coloring book
(The world is my canvas)

Look, new discoveries every time
Always discovering something new

When I color outside the lines
When I deviate from the norm

(Colors of you)
(Your personal colors)

'Eyo the world is my coloring book
The entire world is my canvas

Look, new discoveries every time
Constantly discovering new things

When I color outside the lines
When I break free from traditional constraints
