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
