Gonna take you higher
Gonna take you higher

Chorus:
They call us Diverse City, we're colorful good
It's like a freak show in your neighborhood
So if you wanna praise you can come on down
‘Cause this freak show's leaving the ground

Up, up and away, baby we don't play maybe you thought you was done for the day
He said, she said, I said this, that you can't get away from the moment of bliss
Stirring, we'll lure you in and we'll make room for the shade of skin
Short ones, tall ones, skinny ones, bigger love is the gun and we pullin' that trigger

So you send me and I'll send you hope in the form of a new tattoo
Mine is the shiny city on the hill and yours, of course, is the colors that fill it
Well take you high, we'll take you higher

Chorus:

Now come to the city where you can praise
If you're black, if you're white, if you're yellow or grey
In the morning, in the night, anytime of day
What's that place – Diverse City
With curls in your hair and braids on the side
Straight shake'em loose, just come on and ride
We're a body with parts, like you and me
Together we make diversity

We'll take you higher

Chorus: (2x's)
Welcome to Diverse City, we're colorful good

(4x's)
Di - Verse - City

You bring the heart, I'll bring the soul
I'll bring the flag, you bring the pole
We'll fly it high so the whole world knows
The dream of a King ‘bout to unfold

We ‘bout to do this thing for real
Diverse City got mass appeal
So put your hand in the hand of mine
And we'll spread this love like dandelions

Chorus: (2x's)
