About This Track

'Omega' opens with liturgical language and spiritual invocation, SZA's voice layered over a production that merges R&B with darker, more angular textures. The song moves between religious imagery and intimate address, invoking both Hebrew and Arabic names for God whilst framing vulnerability as a kind of faith. Repetition becomes its own form of prayer: "It's the beginning" accumulates weight across the opening, anchoring the track's spiritual and emotional centre. The chorus settles into a mantra of acceptance: "just ride", a counterpoint to the searching intensity of the verses. SZA positions herself at a threshold, feet planted in sky, asking for answers from a God she addresses with urgent directness. The song balances confession with defiance, the personal with the transcendent, never quite resolving the tension between them. What emerges is less a narrative than a state of becoming, the title itself suggesting both ending and renewal.

"Omega" is a track by SZA, from the album Z, released 7th April 2014. The track is 4:23 long. It's filed under R&B/Soul. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 20 articles about SZA.

Lyrics

Omega

Let the church say Amen
Release all my sins at the pulpit
Its the beginning
Its the beginning
Its the beginning
Its the beginning
Its the beginning
Its the beginning
Its the beginning
Its the beginning
Its the beginning of my sermon
You hold my hand as an infant
Palms to the sky, Adonai, Ya Allah
Till they all come down
Till we all fall down
Down...

Lines drawn in the sun
Keep the sun at your back
Keep your feet firmly planted in the sky
Just ride

When you don't know yourself
If it hurts you to explain
You're God in my eyes
Just ride

Lines drawn in the sun
Keep the sun at your back
Keep your feet firmly planted in the sky
Just ride

Up here, the air is so thin
Mountains on my fingertips
I stand at the tippy, screaming at the top of my lungs
Tears in my eyes
Adonai, Ya Allah, answer my calls if you hear me?!
Adonai, Ya Allah, answer my calls if you're near me?!

Lines drawn in the sun
Keep the sun at your back
Keep your feet firmly planted in the sky
Just ride

When you don't know yourself
If it hurts you to explain
You're God in my eyes
Just ride

Lines drawn in the sun
Keep the sun at your back
Keep your feet firmly planted in the sky
Just ride

It's the beginning

    It feels like SZA could do anything next, as she takes on London's O2 Arena

    There’s a pop dungeon where artists live, sometimes for years, where they say, “it’s coming!” about an album that’s in the works (ahem, Rihanna, ahem, Sky Ferreira). SZA did a stint down there after releasing her cult and critical fave debut ‘Ctrl’ in 2017.
