Lyrics

[Intro]
Fluorescents hum; my name on a blank docket.

[Verse 1]
Benches of cold tile; I plead my hours.
A gavel made of breath lands on my chest.
Sunrises bagged as evidence, tagged and shelved.

[Build]

[Chorus]
I won't plead guilty to living.
the sentence is over now

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
My name on the docket, circled; stamped "released."
Ghost roll call at dawn through chain-link air.
I wore their quiet like ankle-weight iron.
Keys in my throat; the door already open.

[Build 2]

[Chorus 2]
I won't plead guilty to living.
the sentence is over now

[Drop 2]

[Breakdown]
Verdict: living — acquitted by the sky beyond the doors.
I step out; joy takes the floor I kept roped off.

[Final Build]

[Final Drop]

[Outro]
the sentence is over now
