How do I name my list "Colors"?

I watched the video 3 times and still can't figure this out.

lists.py 
my_colors_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

The word before the = sign is the name of the list. So you are currently naming the list my_colors_list.

All you need to do to pass the challenge is to change my_colors_list to colors. Keep in mind that names are case-sensitive. Colors and colors are not considered the same name.
