[Celie]
God forgot about me
[Shug Avery]
God taking his time getting around to you, I admit, but look at all he give us
Laughing, and singing, and sex. Sky over our heads, birds singing to us. I think it piss
God off if anybody even walk past the color purple in a field and not notice it. He
Said, "Look what i made for you."
[Celie]
God just another man, far as i'm concerned, he trifling and lowdown
[Shug Avery]
No, Celie. God not some gloomy old man like the pictures you've seen of him
God not a man at all
God is inside you and everyone else
That was or ever will be
We come into this world with God
But only them who look inside find it
God is the flowers and everything else
That was or ever will be
And when you feel the truth so real
And when you love the way you feel
You've found it
Just as sure as moonlight bless the night
