Innocent
I am innocent,
Truly innocent.
I’ve done nothing wrong.
I would never do such a thing.
This must be a mistake.
You’ve go the wrong person.
I’m clearly not the one,
You’re looking for.
Despite your weapons.
Despite your handcuffs.
Despite your arrest.
Despite my rights
heard and understood.
Despite your bars and
despite your jail.
I: am not guilty
like all those around me,
in this jail.
I am here in a place
I don’t belong
As is everyone here,
Innocent and
Without blemish.
Truly innocent.
I’ve done nothing wrong.
I would never do such a thing.
This must be a mistake.
You’ve go the wrong person.
I’m clearly not the one,
You’re looking for.
Despite your weapons.
Despite your handcuffs.
Despite your arrest.
Despite my rights
heard and understood.
Despite your bars and
despite your jail.
I: am not guilty
like all those around me,
in this jail.
I am here in a place
I don’t belong
As is everyone here,
Innocent and
Without blemish.
