I Will be Aquitted

Post by jeff robertson »

I have been convicted
by my so-called peers
in the court of public opinion
but just wait a few years

when I face that final jury
at the end of all time
I will be aquitted
of my crimes.

I've been called a danger.
I've been heaped with scorn.
Treated like a stranger,
in the town where I was born.

but when I face that final jury
at the end of all time
I will be aquitted
of my crimes.

No lawyer can defend me
from the rumors, insults and stings
No one dares befriend me
lest my guilt rub off on them

but when I face that final jury
at the end of all time
I will be aquitted
of my crimes.

Eager they are to hate me
when the day is not my own
But history will vindicate me
tomorrow I'll take my throne

when I face that final jury
at the end of all time
I will be aquitted
of my crimes.

I Will Be Acquitted - by Water Bill

Waitin’ in a room full of people hate me
Tryin’a figure out what I did to be
The standard scapegoat of their zealous hate
Now I don’t have a clue, no I ain’t got jack
As to their methods of twistin’ up facts
All I know, kid, is that I’ve been framed

Will I be acquitted?
I don’t know, I’d like to think
That I will be acquitted
In my dreams

Prosecutor takes the stand with zeal
Tearin’ down the evidence, I feel
The countdown’s runnin’ on my pitiful life
I’d run if I could but no one posts bail
On account of a punk, aspiration’s failed
Along with every last thing that I tried

It’s a long shot to freedom
And I know I know the truth
The hard part for me is convincing you
In a world used to lying
On behalf of rotten crooks
It’s safe to say that I will likely lose
Now I don’t believe in God
But I’ve begun to pray
That I will be acquitted on this day
Whatever I’ve done wrong
Just please, I beg you, say
That I will be acquitted on this day

I Will Be Acquitted
[Life Sucking Riptide of Despair]
(c)2009 Pathetic Wannabees

I look in the mirror
I see no reflection
I gotta wonder why I ain't there
My own voice
has a stranger's inflection
emanating I don't know where

Indictment is certain
bringin' down the curtain
The universe will swallow me up
My innocence is lost
it couldn't bear the cost
body and soul are corrupt

[chorus]
Dyin' is the payoff
in a world so unfair
Like putting up your feet in the electric chair
Drowning in the current
can't get no air
Life Sucking Riptide of Despair!

[break]
I will be acquitted
can't be convicted
Alibi as tight as a drum!
Circumstantial reasons
changin' with the seasons
falling just as hard as they come!

Coulda woulda shoulda
You know that I never will
Resolve comes apart at the seams
Festering maggots
writhing to the rythym
sterilizing all of my dreams

Black clouds rolling
Thunder and lightning
Hailing Lord's acid rain
Better make a break
while the door's swinging open
'fore I'm locked up insane

[chorus]
Dyin' is the payoff
in a world so unfair
Like putting up your feet in the electric chair
Drowning in the current
can't get no air
Life Sucking Riptide of Despair!

Life Sucking Riptide of Despair!

Life Sucking Riptide of Despair!

I Will Be Acquitted - Paco del Stinko

I am guilty of making you mine
Picking the grape from someone else's vine
Although we both agreed to walk into the sun
We should have waited 'til the final bell had rung

But I will be acquitted
I will be acquitted

Off we went to live life on the lam
People look at us and just don't understand
We're all alone it's just you and I
Sentenced to be together until we both die

But I will be acquitted (I will be acquitted)
I will be acquitted ( I will be set free)

We are both judge and jury
Standing trial for just us to see
We never took time to hurry
But it's time to set ourselves free
Even with a split decision
The shackles are released

Go on ahead and judge with the others
It's been a long long time since we were lovers
I won't forget the past or my time with you
But when my last day comes I'll always know this truth

I will be acquitted
I will be acquitted
I will be acquitted (I will be acquitted)
I will be acquitted ( I will be set free)
And so will you
Bringin' the stink since 2006.

Mantzfield - I Will Be Aquitted
--
Someone once told me that you didn't think I felt any fear
Guna catch a flight to your home town and take a walk on the pier
Fill my coat with all your love and unleash it on the world

Does that prove that I'm like you does that help you change your mind
I know the world seems different now when chaos and fear reign sublime

Never clear the shadows start to call
Flowers die as the walls begin to grow tall
If you were there to hold my hand just once you could've helped prevented this fall

I was never guilty of loving you
Everyday I felt more constricted
Squeeze my hands till your face turns blue
We both know that I will be quitted

I tried to cry but didn't have any tears to say goodbye
Tried to stop but by hands weren't complicit
You'll never know so don't turn and sigh
We both know that I will be aquitted

For all the tears we shed at night we've forgotten them all by the break of first light
All over again we'll rip tear destroy knowing we're right

Fires burn fierce all the the night ashes building redemption bright
As the masses stand firm united in might
At last you'll see the truth we're bigger better far above you

Silence falls as the days draw in
Never said I'd be here or let you win
Ever more blood coated skin
Last chance to turn and run free yourself from sin

I was never guilty of loving you
Everyday I felt more constricted
Squeeze my hands till your face turns blue
We both know that I will be quitted

I tried to cry but didn't have any tears to say goodbye
Tried to stop but by hands weren't complicit
You'll never know so don't turn and sigh
We both know that I will be aquitted

The gress is never greener when its blanketed in snow
Broken bruised and battered they say it's therapy for the soul
Did you ever come to realise whose really in control

The last chance to free yourself you'll never get this again
Free yourself from the mind you know hang the body the wind
Did you ever come to realise that this was end

I was never guilty of loving you
Everyday I felt more constricted
Squeeze my hands till your face turns blue
We both know that I will be quitted

I tried to cry but didn't have any tears to say goodbye
Tried to stop but by hands weren't complicit
You'll never know so don't turn and sigh
We both know that I will be aquitted

I Will Be Acquitted
by Berkeley Social Scene

[Verse 1] A7 E

I can not be held responsible
for all the things you've heard
every day's an uphill climb
I have to watch my words

[Chorus] F#m A E

I know you won't be waiting
While the world scrutinizes
But I will be acquitted
Though never in your eyes
Never in your eyes...

[Verse 2]

God I hate court
Though my lawyer is good
He'll smile and talk through it
And I'll be out of the woods

[Chorus] F#m A E

I know you won't be waiting
While the world scrutinizes
But I will be acquitted
Though never in your eyes
Never in your eyes...

[Bridge] E C#m, A C#m, B C#m, A C#m

And when I think of you
Knowing you'll be gone to me
I get really down
On how unjust life can be

And when I think of you
Knowing you see me with disgust
I get really down
Life can be sooo unjust

[Verse 3]

Sure it looks bad
They'll shed light on my faults
But a bad rap was put on me
I don't deserve this assault

[Chorus] F#m A E

I know you won't be waiting
While the world scrutinizes
But I will be acquitted
Though never in your eyes
Never in your eyes...

..............I Will Be Acquitted
.......................by
........Howl Down the Chimney
..(with help from Irwin and the IRC BFF)

Frost on the deadlight
A visit after midnight
A whispered exchange at the bottom of the stairs

Blackened fingers
A well without water
A sliver of silver in a circle of sky

This time is more than I can do
This time is more than I can do

Roll out the charges
I will be acquitted
They came to see me act the stooge

We'll strike a bargain
It only goes so far and then
It's put to repose before it gets out of hand

You fleece the spinster
I'll deal with her sister
like Edison (who shocked an elephant to death)

I'll never give them up to you
I'll never give them up to you

Roll out the charges
And I will be acquitted
They like to see me act the stooge

Crimson sunrise over polished sentries
Sharpened teeth man as he tries to hang me
His frustration the knots aren't holding
Cyan courtyard with the rooster shrieking

This time is more than I can do
This time is more than I can do

(crank radio)

Nobody knows.
You take off your plastic mask and go home, but they're waiting for you there.

Somebody screamed.
They dropped all their flags and ran down the street, throwing rocks then as they flee.
And you, you shot one in the knee.

"Aquiesce to me, unavoidably you will not be forgiven"
So you walk up to him, and your eyes - they meet.
And you work up to it - that fatal thing.

"You know the law you know that you can't touch me"
"You know that I will be acquitted."

An eye for an eye
An eye for an eye (angry)
An eye for an eye (thundering)
An eye for an eye (ominous)

Rone's un-speelcheked lyrics.

Sitting in this chair without a care
Don't dare to go anywhere

I'm on trial but I give denial
I did steal those files

I get my music legit so they should quit
If I go to jail I'll throw a fit

I believe in the justice of my peers
So I stay silent and do not fear

I will be aquitted
I will be aquitted
Even though prosicution thinks that I did it
I will be aquitted
I will be aquitted
If they think I'm guilty I'll tell 'em where to stick it

My defence is open and shut no ifs and buts
I have emails showing Emusic's cut

Waiting on the decision to gain emancipation
No patience is giving me frustration

Pick on someone else I'm thinking, those who drive wihle drinking
Littering the streets with corspes stinking

Go arrest some child touchers or some woman abducters
I'm just an innocent guy who likes rock and rollers

I will be aquitted
I will be aquitted
Even though prosicution thinks that I did it
I will be aquitted
I will be aquitted
If they think I'm guilty I'll tell 'em where to stick it

I will be aquitted
I know I will
So let me out of this room
And pay my legal bills

I will be aquitted
I will be aquitted
Even though prosicution thinks that I did it
I will be aquitted
I will be aquitted
If they think I'm guilty I'll tell 'em where to stick it
From spoken word to actual singing, I can screw up any style with style. :D

noah mclaughlin

nothing speaks to me like the way you do
it's a twilight silence here without you
in my thoughts, in my dreams and in my arms you sing
a siren song for my soul - oh, heavens, let it ring

oh - it would be a sin
oh - dear just let me in

there is no melody like you and me
no hymn of seraphim could match our purity
demons blush at the sight of our bed
all the sheets white with heat - but they cool to a cherry red

oh - it would be a sin
oh - dear just let me in

there is no sound like the way you move
across my senses - across my room
yeah the devil croons at you very glance
yeah the cherubs wilt - peter gasps and looks askance

oh - it would be a sin
oh - dear just let me in

nothing speaks to me like the way that you do

Chthonic Youth - I Will Be Acquitted (Ujn Hunter & R. Mosquito)

I think right now my neighbor hates me
But it's okay
He won't be my neighbor for long

R. Mosquito and I hanging out on Montgomery Street
Studying the Code of Hammurabi
Post-punk influences absorbed into our bloodstreams
Yeah, back then we were lo-fi

Yeah, back then we were lo-fi

Nowadays you can still find us
We're just on the other side of the tracks

I don't think I'll ever be accused of being too gangsta
But if I ever do
Well, I will be acquitted
Yeah, I will be acquitted

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I met Ujn in 1997
He was an art student
Where as I, I was pretending to be an art student

He was the coolest guy that I knew
Because he had his own band
And it was called Cock

That's right, Cock

The Chthonic Pop Ensemble : I Will be Acquitted.

so if you were to leave right now
no one could would you culpable, no
if you stuck around... oh no.
no reason to prolong this bitter end

our dying relationship you'd leave it to rot on the vine
or perhaps ... on the bone

no good could come out of your defernce to my heart
as well intended as it is.
no good could come from each of us lying to the other
about the state our hearts find themselves in

i know it's not easy
it's not impossible, though
i know how hard you've tried...
to make it easy on yourself

our dying relationship
you'd leave it to rot on the bone

[ OFFSTAGE: THE ACT ]

tributaries in the berber
pooling on the landing
what have i done?
what have i done?

i will be held blameless
i will be forgiven

ten cards on the table
six of swords
culminating
culminating

you must be a rose 'cause you're such a cliche
stand up on your toes, yes, we can see you!
nobody knows what you'll be when you're gray
will you be in a vase?
will we have forgotten your face?

the place where you're standing used to be a green lawn mowed daily
now it's a thicket and you're hardly seen
a thorn in the palm of the kids with their smoke screen

and I'll swallow my pride - that's a cliche, I admit it -
I'll be by your side
like a hat being fitted, a hog being spitted, a lover being acquitted

life is a rose, this is such a cliche
it grafts and it grows; it blooms and it goes.
I raise my glass to the sky every day
and it knows
and it knows
and it knows
