Colours in the Sun
Lexy & K. Paul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Darkened complexion, I'm learning my lesson
Listen today, don't you boast when you pray
Yeah, never post where you lay
Jackers be robbing and plotting and killing too
Batman and Robin, they villains too
Jokers, they smile and they wave
Colorful hair but they dodging the fade
Wire your jaw just to talk like Kanye
MAGA the hat just to feel like you paid
Bust down a chain just to feel like you made
I'm one of one like I drew in a cave
Like I ran through the maze
You a dope boy but it's probably a phase
'Til they search where you stay
And your partner get jammed and he tell what you say
Water for quarters, but who needs a blaze?
Summer with borders like how can we play?
Houses on fire, like where can we stay in the summer?
Greatness is on the horizon
And the sun is rising (woah)
Oh, there ain't no more hiding
'Cause the sun is shining, shining
Someone I can confide in
I feel like the best I've been
Ever since you lived beside me
You showed me I was worth finding
Your greatness is on the horizon
And the sun is rising, the sun is rising
I spent my life in the sun, I pray for light when it's done
I gave my heart for the funds, just give it back when you done
Who needs a flame?
Not talking Blue for the change
Back to the future with lanes
We ain't the same
You took me from where I came
Bond fire, more lighter, propane
Igniter, most higher, not tamed
Highest fire, one higher than they flame
No firefighter or water pilot could maintain
Subtle glimmer, grandma simmer from her pain
Hot perms, no naps in that grain
Slick back, off track like that train
On a late night, just help but no pay
The doubts fire, too tired to say grace in the summer
Greatness is on the horizon
And the sun is rising (woah)
Oh, there ain't no more hiding
'Cause the sun is shining, shining
Someone I can confide in
I feel like the best I've been
Ever since you lived beside me
You showed me I was worth finding
Your greatness is on the horizon
And the sun is rising, the sun is rising
The song Colours in the Sun by Lexy & K. Paul is a reflective and contemplative piece that touches on relevant issues. The lyrics describe a person's life spent under the sun with a darkened complexion, indicating that they have experienced struggles in their life. They mention the importance of humility in prayer and the danger of boasting about one's blessings, as it can attract robbers or ill-intentioned individuals. The lyrics also touch on current social and political issues such as police brutality, inequality, and consumerism. The lines "MAGA the hat just to feel like you paid, bust down a chain just to feel like you made" highlights the culture of consumerism and materialism where people buy things to feel validated or to signal their social status.
As the song progresses, the lyrics speak of the hope and promise of a brighter future. The chorus emphasizes the idea that the sun is a symbol of hope and represents the rising of greatness, encouraging people to be confident and not to hide from their potential. The song recognizes the value of having someone to confide in, someone who can help one discover their worth and potential. The lyrics, "Ever since you lived beside me, You showed me I was worth finding" emphasize the impactful role that relationships can play in one's life.

I spent my life in the sun
I have lived my life in a place of brightness and warmth
Darkened complexion, I'm learning my lesson
My skin has darkened from the excessive sun exposure and now I am learning the consequences
Listen today, don't you boast when you pray
Be humble when you pray and don't brag
Yeah, never post where you lay
Do not reveal your living location on social media
Jackers be robbing and plotting and killing too
There are people who commit robberies, plot crimes, and even kill others
Batman and Robin, they villains too
Even heroes can be villains
Jokers, they smile and they wave
Some people may seem friendly on the outside, but be cautious
Colorful hair but they dodging the fade
People may dye their hair with bold colors, but they may not want to fight
Never could surf but you riding the wave
You have never been able to surf, but you are succeeding
Wire your jaw just to talk like Kanye
Talking like Kanye is not always necessary to fit in
MAGA the hat just to feel like you paid
Putting on a MAGA hat does not mean you have money
Bust down a chain just to feel like you made
Wearing expensive chains does not determine your success
I'm one of one like I drew in a cave
I am unique and there is nobody else like me
Like I ran through the maze
I feel like I am constantly searching for something
You a dope boy but it's probably a phase
Being involved in illegal activities may just be a temporary phase
'Til they search where you stay
Getting caught for illegal activities can be detrimental
And your partner get jammed and he tell what you say
Your partner getting caught and revealing information could lead to more trouble
Water for quarters, but who needs a blaze?
Why have a fire when you can just hydrate yourself?
Summer with borders like how can we play?
Being limited in the summer makes it difficult to enjoy
Houses on fire, like where can we stay in the summer?
If there are fires everywhere, where can we seek refuge during the summer?
Greatness is on the horizon
There is significant potential for success
And the sun is rising (woah)
The sun represents hope and a new day
Oh, there ain't no more hiding
There is no more reason to hide or be ashamed
'Cause the sun is shining, shining
The sun is shining brightly, filling us with positivity
Someone I can confide in
I am able to trust someone with my deepest secrets
I feel like the best I've been
I feel like I am at my peak performance level
Ever since you lived beside me
Since you have been living next to me, I have been feeling this way
You showed me I was worth finding
You made me realize that I am valuable
