Convict Colony Lyrics - Singles - Saul Williams

The legion is on fire 

The legion is on fire 

The legion is on fire 

I was born in a convict colony 

I was torn from the land that mothered me 

Mother, may I? She said, "Yes, you may" 

Well, today I, I said, right here, today 

You're a convict colony 

If you're running from the sun 

You're a convict colony, a convict colony 

And you don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

I was birthed from the earth 

Fought my way to this day 

Now I'm grown truth be told 

I'll be here 'til you're gone 

You're a convict colony 

You're running from the sun 

You're a convict colony 

You're reaching for your gun 

You're a convict colony 

You're running from the sun 

You're a convict colony, a convict colony 

And you don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want it 

You don't really want
