Color Rap (Final).mp3


Color Rap

[Chorus]
Some people are blue, some people are white
Some people are black like the color of the night
Some people are silver, some people are brown
Some people are gold like the color of a crown
Some people are purple, some people are yellow
Sittin around like a cowardly fellow
Some people are red, some people are green
I hope you get the message I’ma show you what I mean

[Verse 1]
Now sometimes I’m blue and sometimes I’m red
When I’m blue I’m calm
When I’m red it’s on
Cause this is when I’m angry
I’m showin my aggression
But it ain’t very often it isn’t my obsession

Most the time I’m yellow
Not in a coward way
I’m the life of the party
I’m like it err day
And I’m hot like the sunshine
Slow down when you passin
Just like a hazard sign
I don’t wanna see you crashin
Yellow’s for return
We see it more and more
On the backs of cars
Helpin soldiers home from war
My brothers a marine
So I know what this mean
And he’ll have the same fear
When I do the same next year

Yellow means happiness
Yellow means joy
This has been my style
Since I was a little boy
Now you know what I’m like
I’ll be yellow all my life
And when I get older
Hope I find a yellow wife!!

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
On the other hand I’m gray
I like to help people
I’m reliable as night and day
I’m intelligent mature
And most the time secure
This is the good
It’s all good in the hood

But sometimes it’s bad
When I’m bored
When I’m sad
These are things that gray can be
They’re not good
They’re the negatives of me
I don’t like them cuz they’re bad
But there’s gotta be some … bad
For good to be had

[Chorus]

I loved your rap. It was very creative, and an awesome way to do this assignment. Your rap caught my attention because it was different than everyone else's. You did not have the usual way of explaining each color, and then saying how and why it relates to you. Also, I really enjoyed how you selected one color to represent most of your good qualities and another to show your faults. Again, that was another very creative way to look at this assignment and to make it your own. Great job!

I thought that was really good. I think its pretty tough to write a song about anything, even something you like. And it has to be extremely tough to write about something like this, and I think you did an excellent job. Not only did it seem to flow well, but you made some really good points. My favorite was about the yellow bring our soldiers home. Great job!!
