All the needy still need
And I know
All the losers still lose
And all the preachers still preach
And I know
They ain't bringin' no change

I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change (and I know)
I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change

All the lows still low
And I know
All the high still get high
And how I wish we could dance
But all these rhythms don't seem to match up
Seem to match up

I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change
I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change

Bits and bits of cane
Burning, burning, burning
Bit by bit away
They grow as people grow
Glow as people glow

Bits and bits of cane
Burning, burning, burning
Bit by bit away
They grow as people grow
And glow as people glow

I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change
I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change

All these colors will change
I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change
'Cause all these lovers never change
