[Verse 1: Tim James]
Stars fall at my feet, keep me grounded as I reach
Higher than I see, is there something there for me?
Pulling back the reins, letting go again
I'm not afraid, I'm not
[Chorus: Tim James]
All my life, one page at a time
I'll show you my, my true colors
No no no, I won't apologize for the fire in my eyes
Let me show you my, my true colors
[Verse 2: Tim James]
A promise with a lie is broken by design
Has been swallowed by the truth
[Chorus: Tim James]
All my life, one page at a time
I'll show you my, my true colors
No no no, I won't apologize for the fire in my eyes
Let me show you my, my true colors, it ain't no rainbow
[Bridge: Tim James]
Something tells me I know nothing at all
We've escaped our capture
Yet we have our masters
And somehow it's like I've waited
[Chorus: Tim James]
All my life, one page at a time
I'll show you my, my true colors
As every person who is in love or has expectations about somebody, one is always get subjected to the principle of reality soon or later. Therefore he prefers living in his imagination some time, before hitting himself with the hardship of reality.
If falling stars grant wishes, then Tim stands amongst a mini-galaxy. He see himself lucky, as life allowed him to become a musical star and pursue many possibilities.
Knowing the phrase “be careful what you wish for”, he asked his loved ones to teach him prudence against the music industry.
Even then, he dwells on existence: Which dreams are meant to be lived out? He’s overwhelmed, double-guessing his metaphorical flight as he leaves safety.
The rainbow is beautiful and ranges various refractions of bright lights. Tim prefers the dark side instead, revelling in his imperfection.
He desires to be someone great, represented by fire’s symbolic passion, and the agency an authsomeone when writing a story’s pages.
Tim’s done with disguising himself and waiting for life and people to catch up and accept the his identity, flaws and all. Therefore, “True Color” is his manifesto.
