Lyrics[]

If graffiti on the wall changed anything at all
Then it would be illegal
If scars could go away
What would your body say
Don't ever hide your feelings

Ohh don't ever try to take my freedom
Ohh your imperfections, this world needs them

What do you got, show me your Basquiat
He didn't keep it all to himself
Even with Keith out on the street, he died fighting
So you can do it as well

Love is paint and paint is art
Show me your graffiti heart
Love is paint and paint is art
Show me your graffiti heart

Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, yeah

Frida showed her feelings
Painting from the ceiling
Back in the beginning
Nothing's what it seems
She painted all her dreams
She made her own reality

Ohh don't ever try to take my freedom
Ohh your imperfections, this world needs them

What do you got, show me your Basquiat
He didn't keep it all to himself
Even with Keith out on the street, he died fighting
So you can do it as well

Love is paint and paint is art
Show me your graffiti heart
Love is paint and paint is art
Show me your graffiti heart

Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, yeah

They can break down and take down
But they can't destroy our history
This wall, it must fall
To make room for our masterpiece

Love is paint and paint is art
Show me your graffiti heart
Love is paint and paint is art
Show me your graffiti heart

Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa, yeah

If graffiti on the wall changed anything at all
Then it would be illegal
