OMAR’S PROMISED LAND
Words & Music by: Piet Louter
Going out at dawn, naturally engaged
In the daily livelihood for a modest wage.
Taking part in the system, turned into a drudge
Always being occupied with having being judged
On all that hazy matters
Of going well together with the crowd
With all that crazy habits
Learning to know just what it’s all about
On going with the flow and come to understand
That’s the way it goes in Omar’s Promised Land.
There ain’t no ears for stories, there ain’t no eyes for tears
Just not a bit of feeling for those, who had to fear
Been giving up to madness at the mercy of a war
That might be backed by those who found the sufferers at their door
With all their crazy habits
That are wished to get it put away
Before it’s falling out that
It would be all about and here to stay
On holding up the flow and never fail to stand
For the way it goes in Omar’s Promised Land.
Consummate pop songwriting both smart and smooth, with the ability to resonate universally without compromising uniqueness. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 20, 2017
Elizabeth Morris of Allo Darlin’ returns with a new group! “Winter Sun” is a tender blend of pastoral folk and diary-like lyrics. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 8, 2019
