Colourblind

It's not something I thought of before
Where we come from informs who we are
So obvious yet still a surprise
Our privilege to recognise

Didn't think prejudice had a name
I thought we were all born the same
Never knew hurt was so easy to find
I guess I was just colourblind

There's you, me
And all in between
Sew change
Fabric and seam

Look at us and the privilege we have
Happy homes and a language that lands
How come that was never a sign?
I guess I was just colourblind

I won't apologise for who I am
Won't deny the place that I came from
I'm not ashamed of the man I became
Cause I'm made up of you in the end

There's you, me
And all in between
Sew change
Fabric and seam
