Mark Morrison, DMX - Innocent Man lyrics

[Mark Morrison, DMX - Innocent Man lyrics]

Did my time (In a) county jail (Just when)
Just when things (Started) going well (And I)
Paid the price (For the) crimes I did (Wanna)
Change my life (Wanna) raise my kids

(I'm an innocent man) Misunderstood
(I'm an innocent man) Just from the hood
(I'm an innocent man) Misunderstood
(I'm an innocent man) A man is good

Promised her
(That I) that I'll change (Gonna)
Live my life (In a) better way (Have a)
Little you (And a) little me (So we)
Can settle down (And live) happily

(I'm an innocent man) Misunderstood
(I'm an innocent man) Just from the hood
(I'm an innocent man) Misunderstood
(I'm an innocent man) A man is good
Understood



If everyone else had my eyes
Then who I am wouldn't be a surprise
Just 'cause I'm locked up don't mean
I'm fucked up in the game
Just a victim of the dirt they
Tryna throw on my name get arrested
But getting arrested don't make me guilty
But by the time I make it to court
The media done killed me
Got a good heart, but we all do wrong
I really mean well, but I'm going too strong
You say I'm rehabilitated
But I still can't vote
You say I paid my debt
But I still can't vote
Gotta pay taxes, but I still can't vote?
Come on, dawg
Y'all stay trying to keep a nigga broke
You just as crooked as us
Fuck you tryna say?
'Cause once I pay that dough
The charges go away
Forget about it, it's okay
'Cause, I'ma walk over here and let
The Lord pave my way, aight

Change the life (That I) that I live (Got me)
Living fine (Living) negative (Need to)
Leave the game, game
(that is) destroying me (So I)
Pray to God (That He) has mercy

On an innocent man on an innocent man
On an innocent man on an innocent man
On an innocent man on an innocent man
On an innocent man on an innocent man
On an innocent man on an innocent man
