Is this a sad song?

BILLY GILMAN LYRICS





"I Am / Shades Of Life"





I am black, I am white


I am all skins in between


I am young, I am old


I am each age that has been


I am scrawny, I am well fed


I am starving for attention


I am famous, I am cryptic


I am hardly worth the mention


I am short, I am height


I am any frame or stature


I am smart, I am challenged


I am striving for a future





[Chorus:]


The color of shy


Is blues and grays


The color of earth


Is greens and browns


The color of hop


Is rainbows and purple


And the color of peace


Is people together


Shades of life


I am





I am able, I am weak


I am some strength, I am none


I am being, I am thought


I am all things, said and done


I am born, I am died


I am dust of humble roots


I am grace, I am pain


I am labor of winned fruites


I am slave, I am free


I am bonded to my life


I am rich, I am poor


I am wealth amid strife





[Repeat Chorus]





I am shadow, I am glory


I am hiding from my shame


I am hero, I am loser


I am yearning for a name


I am empty, I am proud


I am seaking my tomorrow


I am growing, I am fading


I am hope amid the sorrow


I am vertain, I am doubtful


I am desperate for solutions


I am leader, I am student


I am fate and evolutions





I am spirit, I am voice


I am memory, not recalled


I am chance, I am cause


I am effort blocked and walled


I am hymn, I am heard


I am reasoned without rhymes


I am past, I am nearing


I am present in all times


I am many, I am no one


I am seasoned by each being


I am me, I am you


I am all-souls now decreeing





[Repeat Chorus]
