Then let me be known as a criminal. Where my crime is to champion justice; Where my crime is to challenge the silence; Where my crime is to stand against inequality; Where my crime is to feel deeply for the children who have to grow up as orphans; Where my crime is to feel empathy for the parents who had lost their children; Where my crime is to grieve for the innocent animals who had fallen victim to circumstance. Let the pages of history tell of a criminal, Who dared to defy the unjust norms - A criminal for compassion, a rebel for righteousness. If I can show up fiercely for them, imagine the lengths I’d go to for my clients and fellow countrymen. If speaking up for the oppressed is a crime, Then let me go down in history as a criminal.

If Speaking Up for the Oppressed is a Crime
Then let me be known as a criminal. Where my crime is to champion justice; Where my crime is to challenge the silence; Where my crime is to stand against inequality; Where my crime is to feel deeply for the children who have to grow up as orphans; Where my crime is to feel empathy for the parents who had lost their children; Where my crime is to grieve for the innocent animals who had fallen victim to circumstance. Let the pages of history tell of a criminal, Who dared to defy the unjust norms - A criminal for compassion, a rebel for righteousness. If I can show up fiercely for them, imagine the lengths I’d go to for my clients and fellow countrymen. If speaking up for the oppressed is a crime, Then let me go down in history as a criminal.
