THE INNOCENT

 Oh, you'll get this now
 I'mma get this now, and I'mma take mine just to get mine
 You think I know, wide eyes got a narrow scope
 You think that they'd know not to shoot a man while he on the floor
 That's why these youngins, they run before talking to police 'cause they know the deal
 See young Trayvon Martin had just left the market with candy and got his ass killed
 No more excuses, we must refuse this, silence is useless
 Long live the innocent
 They tell us stories of star-spangled glory, this is your warning
 Long live the innocent

 Eyes of the law do not, yeah, look anything like my own
 See, I can see clearly now that the arraignment is gone
 Yes, I did go head up with that cop trying to do me like Radio Raheem
 I looked at the judge, said: "I feared for my life, and I pray that you'll do the right thing"
 No more excuses, we must refuse this, silence is useless
 Long live the innocent
 They tell us stories of star-spangled glory, this is your warning
 Long live the innocent
 It ain't what you are, it's what you can be
 It ain't what you are, it's what you can be
 It ain't what you are, it's what you can be
 And I see you, my brother

 All they know is what you show them
