Excuse my proclaimed innocents
But it's my finest stroke of brilliance
This grievance is a hindrance
Balance lost in an instance

I am being convicted
For a crime I may or may not have committed

A judge and jury will have sentenced me before my guilt can be omitted

The crime and punishment
Aren't fitted

Because it's a punishable offence
That I never owned up to or admitted

Trial me for your sake
Truth will see me acquitted

See I seek the justice in who I am
I am not worse or better my friend

My sanity should not be on trial
Is it you or I that is in denial

I have no regrets or pretence
I have a tough skin that just doesn't relent

I have a lifetime sentence
Time already spent

The shackles and cuffs
Don't tie me to your argument

For I am freedom in a pen
Try as you might
Come and come at me again

I'll write you a sentence
You will never see light again

Torture and hang me
Walk me down dead mans row
The soul inside me
Is stronger than you could no

Beat me
Bash me
Bury me alive

My written words
Will be the parts of me strong enough to endure and survive x
