You can only change the desktop icon text with a 3rd party program.
I am using Iconoid - Hide and show desktop icons, maketransparent backgrounds it's free, I have had trouble with the disabling the drop shadow not wanting to stay disabled so I used this Desktop Icon Toy - Save Desktop Icon Position, Lock Desktop Icon (not free used trial) for a few days and then went to Iconoid and it say disabled.

You cannot change the desktop icon font color without a 3rd party program. "Iconid", as suggested by Bongo, is a good choice.
