Culprit (Alternate Version)

CULPRIT (Alt)

Where's the golden book you hide
That you say was prophesied

I'm not a savior or an alibi
I need the former not the latter kind

Where's the stone that bends your eye
You say you read it line by line

And I'm not educated or divine
Took 90 days without a proper scribe

Culprit
Let the truth confound the wise
Culprit
Uhhh

Tar and feather
Whip and chain
Scar me for the rest of my life
A chipped my tooth
And slur my speech
But I'll speak up every time

I'm like the lamb
I go to slaughter when it's time

So how culpable am I?
Exonerated of my crimes
I'm never guilty brother
Anywhere you preside

I'm like the lamb
I go to slaughter when it's time
Two hundred cowards
Painting faces in the night
Something missing in your life
You need mine

Culprit
An unnecessary crime at a necessary time
Culprit
An unnecessary crime at a necessary time
Culprit
An unnecessary crime at a necessary time
Culprit
An unnecessary crime at a necessary time
Carthage
Awh

Culprit
An unnecessary crime
(They're gathering outside)
Culprit
An unnecessary crime
('Cause a martyr has to die)
Culprit
An unnecessary crime
At a necessary time
Culprit
