Exonerate Me
Innocent til proven guilty?
There's a riot on your hands
Because I come from inner city
Then I've gotta be your man
You live your life as innocently
As innocence can be
But when assailed by the liars
You ain't ever breaking free
This diatribe ain't gonna faze me
Cuz you'll send me to my end
False indictments are now blazing
And you'll throw me down again
I'll go out in a bright red flame
If you gotta go somehow
It might as well be in that way
I'll go out in a bright red flame
If you gotta go somehow
It might as well be in that way
After you waste me
Exonerate me
You'll see that I was right all along
After you take me
Exonerate me
I'm only guilty until you're proven wrong
There ain't a lawyer who can save me
From this southern bigotry
We know they just want to depraved me
Justice is blind so it won't see
They've already strapped me down now
Death row: ring your alarm
I know my virtues will all be found
So thrust that poison in my arm
You can kill me on your table
You can make my mother cry
You'll murder, I know you're able
But you can never make me die
I'll go out in a bright red flame
If you gotta go somehow
It might as well be in that way
I'll go out in a bright red flame
If you gotta go somehow
It might as well be in that way
Exonerate me
You'll see that I was right all along
After you take me
Exonerate me
I'm only guilty until you're proven wrong
After you waste me
Exonerate me
You'll see that I was right all along
After you take me
Exonerate me
I'm only guilty until you're proven wrong
There's a riot on your hands
Because I come from inner city
Then I've gotta be your man
You live your life as innocently
As innocence can be
But when assailed by the liars
You ain't ever breaking free
This diatribe ain't gonna faze me
Cuz you'll send me to my end
False indictments are now blazing
And you'll throw me down again
I'll go out in a bright red flame
If you gotta go somehow
It might as well be in that way
I'll go out in a bright red flame
If you gotta go somehow
It might as well be in that way
After you waste me
Exonerate me
You'll see that I was right all along
After you take me
Exonerate me
I'm only guilty until you're proven wrong
There ain't a lawyer who can save me
From this southern bigotry
We know they just want to depraved me
Justice is blind so it won't see

I'll go out in a bright red flame
If you gotta go somehow
It might as well be in that way
Exonerate me
You'll see that I was right all along
After you take me
Exonerate me
I'm only guilty until you're proven wrong
After you waste me
Exonerate me
You'll see that I was right all along
After you take me
Exonerate me
I'm only guilty until you're proven wrong
