The Color Purple Lyrics – Fantasia

Soundtrack Album: The Color Purple

The Color Purple Text

[Verse 1]
Dear God, dear stars
Dear trees, dear sky
Dear peoples, dear everything
Dear God
God is inside me and everyone else
That was, forever will be
I came into this world with God
And when I finally looked inside
I found it
Just as close as my breath is to me

[Verse 2]
Risin' (Risin', risin') like the sun
Is the hold that sets us free
Your heartbeat make my heart beat
When we share love like a blade of corn
Like a honey bee
Like a waterfall
All a part of me
Like the color purple
Where do it come from?
Now my eyes are open
Look what God has done

[Bridge]
It take a grain of love (Grain of love)
To make a mighty tree (To make a mighty, mighty tree)
You take the smallest love (Smallest love)
And make a harmony (Harmony)
Like a drop of water (Like a drop of water)
You keep the river high (You keep makin' the river high)
There are miracles (There are miracles)
For you and I (For you and I)

[Chorus]
Like a blade of corn (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Like a honey bee (Ooh)
Like a waterfall (Like, ooh)
All a part of me
Like the color purple
Where do it come from? (Tell, where does it come from?)
Now my eyes are open (Now my eyes are open)
Look what God has done

[Outro]
I don't think us feel old at all
I think this is the youngest us every felt
Amen ('Men)

"The Color Purple" performed by Fantasia in the musical adaptation of the same nane is a song that deeply explores themes of spirituality, interconnectedness, and self-realization. The lyrics are both poetic and profound, painting a picture of personal and universal connection to the divine. The song opens with a tender invocation, addressing various elemrnts of nature and the divine, signaling a deep reverence for the world and its creator. The phrase “God is inside me and everyone else” encapsulates the central theme of the song – the omnipresence of the divine within and around all beings. This line indicates a realization of God not as an external entity, but as an intrinsic part of every individual and aspect of the universe. The lyrics “I came into this world with God, And when I finally looked inside, I found it” speak to the journey of self-discovery and the realization that divine presence is as close and vital as one's own breath. It reflects an awakening to an inner spiritual reality that was always present but perhaps unrecognized. The verses use natural imagery – a blade of corn, a honey bee, a waterfall – to express the idea that everything in the universe is interconnected and a manifestation of the divine. These elements are described as parts of the singer, symbolizing a deep unity with all of creation. The chorus, “Like the color purple, Where do it come from? Now my eyes are open, Look what God has done,” uses the color purple as a metaphor for the beauty and mystery of creation. It suggests a newfound awareness and appreciation for the wonders of life and the divine hand in it. In essence, "The Color Purple" is a celebration of divine love and the beauty of the universe. It encourages listeners to recognize and embrace the presence of the divine within themselves and in the world around them, fostering a sense of deep spiritual connection and gratitude.
