I found the gray area
Neither black nor white
A golden opportunity
For me to shine bright
Though I am a shrinking violet
Yellow-bellied too
Sometimes green with envy
Sometimes feeling blue
I am a black sheep
Caught red in the face
Caught red-handed
In self-love’s embrace
So roll out the red carpet
For I have arrived
The grass is greener
Here on my side
Call me off-color
But color me surprised
How boring it is to color
Inside the lines
In my true color
I see the green light
And with flying color
I give color to life
