Try to paint a picture, with your eyes wide open
Try to paint a picture, with your eyes wide open
Tina's just a little girl
But she opened a portal to another world
With the chalk on the sidewalk
With the chalk on the sidewalk
Even while drawing that very first line
She laid out the treasures of her beautiful mind
With the chalk on the sidewalk
In the chalk on the sidewalk
Flying fish in a coastal cove
A map to the pirate's treasure trove
In the chalk on the sidewalk
With the chalk on the sidewalk
Always encourage the mind of a child
Imagination is meant to run wild
With the chalk on the sidewalk
With the chalk on the sidewalk
Everybody say:
Try to paint a picture with your eyes wide open
Let's keep the magic on our side
Try to paint a picture with your eyes wide open
Let's make it safe to play outside (For them)
I see my friends and neighbors, in the whole design
Not templates, for a police outline
In the chalk on the sidewalk (In the chalk on the sidewalk)
In the chalk on the sidewalk (In the chalk on the sidewalk)
See I believe in their rights to stand up
To be heard and answered, to not end up
In the chalk on the sidewalk (In the chalk on the sidewalk)
Just a body in the chalk on the sidewalk
Can't Breathe in the chalk on the sidewalk
Down in Houstin with a clock on the sidewalk (Come on)
Love thy neighbor still applies
Regardless of creed
Compassion must rise
Or else what will be in our children's eyes
With the very same monsters we claim to despise
Little kids ain't throwin' shade
When they show us the truth in the art that they made
With the chalk on the sidewalk (With the chalk on the sidewalk)
With the chalk on the sidewalk (With the chalk on the sidewalk)
Tina's just a little girl
But give her some room
And she can change the world
With the chalk on the sidewalk
It all starts with the chalk on the sidewalk
Everybody say:
Try to paint a picture with your eyes wide open
Let's keep the magic on our side
Try to paint a picture with your eyes wide open
Let's make it safe to play outside (For them)
Try to paint a picture with your eyes wide open
Let's keep compassion on our side
Try to paint a picture with your eyes wide open
Let's make it safe to play outside (For them)
