I need a hand - UP, UP, UP
Can I get a little help now? UP, UP, UP
Don't let me down
Can you be down, down, down?
I need help! UP, UP, UP
Can I get a little hand now? UP, UP, UP
Don't let me down
Can you be down, down, down?
Once upon a time all lands were united
One world one life one sun was provided
One people - skin so beautiful
Tones like jewels - each one original
Flash to the future, story's still the same
Reflections of the past - gifts that we claim
One legend that was passed around
"Everyone's skin was a different shade of brown."
My skin color is
Your skin color is
My skin color is
Your skin color is
My skin color is
Your skin color is
My skin color is
Your skin color is
I need a hand - UP, UP, UP
Can I get a little help now? UP, UP, UP
Don't let me down
Can you be down, down, down?
I need help! UP, UP, UP
Can I get a little hand now? UP, UP, UP
Don't let me down
Can you be down, down, down?
Skin color is a spectrum we know that fact
Highlight its beauty through high five contact
Human is human we have the same parts
Skin tones are different but not too far apart
Every high 5 is special because we are
The colors, together they raise the bar
Bringing us together, dropping that guard
Give me that rock - I'll show you that star
I need a hand - UP, UP, UP
Can I get a little help now? UP, UP, UP
Don't let me down
Can you be down, down, down?
I need help! UP, UP, UP
Can I get a little hand now? UP, UP, UP
Don't let me down
Can you be down, down, down?
We stick together
Thick or thin
So gimme some
Gimme some skin
We stick together
Thick or thin
So gimme some
Gimme some skin
Let them know you're alive
Put your hands up to the sky
Look somebody in the eyes
Rock that ultimate High 5
Let them know you're alive
Put your hands up to the sky
Look somebody in the eyes
Rock that ultimate High 5
