Genesis Owusu - I Am Lyrics

The blackest dogs up in the city gone ahead and shown up
Its you, it's me, its all of us and we gon love it sure nuff, ay ay, sure nuff

You looked at you,
I looked at me,
You saw the doom,
I saw the sea,
Now who is who,
Don't tell me please,
You chose the tomb,
I chose the free

I've been scorned and,
I've been damned I,
Thought that it was me,
But who I was and,
Who I am is,
Not who I will be

Been a black dog all my life,
No leash, I chained up all the strife,
On leaf I barked up all my bite,
I fleed when I had chance for flight,
But see, my neighbour in the night,
Crazy he would fight,
Just to see that I broke,
But I done realised,
Me and him is tight - knit as hatred and gold,
I am me, maybe he is too,
We made of glass, now I'm seeing through,
I falsified with rose-tinted views,
But maybe roses smell just like,
Ooo,
Flip that coin, see theres more to me than one,
Souls worn through, I aint seen a longer run,
Shadow is a must if you wanna see the sun,
I already know theres a better me to come

Now who is who,
Don't tell me please,
You chose the tomb,
I chose the free

I've been scorned and,
I've been damned I,
Thought that it was me,
But who I was and,
Who I am is,
Not who I will be

I don't know what you think of me,
Of who I am, what you think you see,
I don't care what you think you know,
Cause I found love all up on my own

I've been scorned and,
I've been damned I,
Thought that it was me,
But who I was and,
Who I am is,
Not who I will be

So what you know about
Me
(I want you to be with me)

Pray for me,
Pray the mood,
Every night you look for doom,
I had scars up in my shoes,
But now I found my brand new groove
(Repeat)

My brand new groove
My brand new groove
My brand new
