Saul Williams - Om Nia Merican Lyrics

I'm the Om Nia Merican born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged
I'm the Om Nia Merican born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged

I'm the Om Nia Merican born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged
I'm the Om Nia Merican born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged

Oh say can you
20,000 Negro leagues beneath the
Sea-foamed clouds laced with ink that stains when
Rains makes books of trees at once upon a
Dawns early light pawn bishop knight children of
Night may queens take kings hereafter thereafter
The trickling sands demand that our decisions
Be timely

I'm the Omni American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged
I'm the Omni American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged

I'm the offspring of spring reborn pledged and sworn
The risen ash of a flag burned and torn
I'm the blood of the womb the risen tide of the moon
The dark side that the light cannot hide
I'm the pages of history read between the lines
The living truth behind your symbols and signs
I'm the son of a minister, love of a teacher
My mother taught me well so I rebel
I'm the bell re-tolled yet a story untold the
Hidden force behind a rock that was rolled

I'm the omni American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged
I'm the omni American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged

Oh say can you
20,000 Negro leagues beneath the
Sea-foamed clouds laced with ink that stains when
Rains makes books of trees at once upon a
Dawns early light pawn bishop knight children of
Night may queens take kings hereafter thereafter
The trickling sands demand that our decisions
Be timely

I'm the Omni American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged
I'm the Omni American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged
I'm the Omni American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged
I'm the Omni American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged

Ah, Lift every voice and sing
Ah, lift every voice and sing
Ah, and you don't stop
It don't stop
Uh, uh, uh

I'm the, I'm the American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged
I'm the, I'm the American born of beats and blood
The concert of the sun unplugged

Uh, yeah, yeah
