The Beauty of Gray by Live considered being together as one between black and white. Being together by mean about race, as a human being we should rid ourselves of our egos. Gray can also mean middle ground where we are all equal regardless of anything else, including race. [3]
According to dictionary, the grey area is defined as “an area or part of something existing between two extremes and having mixed characteristics of both.” When we put ourselves into a grey area, we remove limits and promote positivity and accept the situation. [4]
If we were to be together, stepping aside from what makes things divided, the world perhaps would begin to understand each other and be able to solve its problems. [5]
Below is the part of the lyrics of song The Beauty of Gray performed by Live about examining one's racial prejudice :
This is not a black and white world
To be alive
I say that the colors must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
The beauty of gray [6]
