Lyrics Black & White - Todrick Hall , Superfruit

I lived in a world full of peoples so unwilling to see the color bars beyond the endless static
Too content with living life like a rerun of an old back and white sitcom
Which is odd cause well
It was the 90's
And everywhere I went people would say, "wow you are definitely unique", huh
What they were really tryna say was

Hey, dreamer
Why you gotta dream so big?
How you gonna fit inside this box?
Which I'm tryin' hard to fit you in?

Hey, Dreamer
Why you gotta dream so bright?
For you to dream in technicolor's
Not okay, if it ain't gray
If it's black and white

Left, right!
Right, left, right, left
Left, right!
Right, left, right, left
Left, right!
Right, left, right, left
Left, right!
Right, left, right, left

We can move forward
But don't step out of line
Try to be content, this world is tintless
But it's far from colorblind

And I was so sure
Someday I would find
The crack between the black and white
A fact that might ignite a change of mind, but they said

Who do you think you are?
What do you think you'll be?
Why you run around town
Thinkin' all these crazy things?
That ain't true
So just know your place
Just wasn't meant to be
Try, and you'll get a taste of good reality

And they say
Dream, but not too big
Reach, but not too wide
Think the impossible
As long as it's in black and white

They said
Leap, but not too high
Shine, but not too bright
Think the impossible
As long as it's in black and white, I said

Left, right!
Right, left, right, left
Left, right!
Right, left, right, left
Left, right!
Right, left, right, left
Left, right!
Right, left, right, left!

You can move mountains
But don't you try to climb
You can write the songs
Don't get me wrong
Just know the words can never rhyme

And I was so sure
If I gave 'em a little time
Maybe they'd ignore it
Press fast forward
But they simply pressed rewind

They say
Who do you think you are? (Do you think you are?)
What do you think you'll be? (Think you'll be)
Why you run around town
Thinkin' all these crazy things?

That ain't true
So just know your place
Just wasn't meant to be
Try, and you'll get a taste of good reality

And they say
Dream, but not too big
Reach, but not too wide
Think the impossible
As long as it's in black and white

They said
Leap, but not too high
Shine, but not too bright
Think the impossible
As long as it's in black and white, I said

Left, right!
Right, left, right, left
Left, right
Right, left, right, left! (Right, left, right left)
Left, right
Right, left, right, left
Left, right
Right, left, right, left

No dreams allowed
No standing out
Stay in the crowd
Where it's black and white

Heads in the clouds
Just come back down
Feet on the ground
Where it's black and white

Dream, but not too big (Not too big)
Reach, but not too wide (Not too wide)
Think the impossible
As long as it's in black and white

They said
Leap, but not too high (I said shine, babe)
Shine, but not too bright (Not too bright)
Think the impossible
As long as it's in black and white, I said

Dreamer (Yeah, oh!)
Why you gotta dream so big?
How you gonna fit inside this box
Which I'm tryin' hard to fit you in?

Hey, Dreamer
Why you gotta dream so bright?
For you to dream in technicolor's
Not okay, if it ain't gray
If it's black and white

Left, right
Right, left, right, left
Left, right
Right, left, right, left
Left, right
Right, left, right, left
Left, right
Right, left, right, left
