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
