I'm Innocent Lyrics - Murs

What up dog? It's Murson 

It seems like nobody's trying man 

There's kids dying in Sudan and nobody cares man 

At least I'm trying, man 

Look, don't ever let the fact that you can't be perfect 

Stop you from doing your best 'Murs for President' 

Unless we try the innocent'll die 

You can't close your eyes, keep living in a lie 

Look, we not helpless, we not hopeless 

Said a prayer for the homie whose locked up and wrote this 

He got to get out and change his ways 

While I'm looking for a way to explain these days 

It's trying time so I'm trying to rhyme 

But so many fascinated with this life of crime, hah

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

Look, I'm dying to be different, down to die to make a difference 

Music for the movement with a message, uplifting 

Went from set trippin' to trips around the world 

Opportunities are oysters, you might find a pearl 

You can't be scared to take that chance 

'Cuz if you rather knock twice then you're late for the dance 

You gotta move with urgency, assert with certainty 

Ask me if I'm set to serve, I say, certainly 

Higher than the kite, I'm high off life 

At the height of my career, a high priest on mikes 

I'm anti thug and anti drugs 

Brought peace to the party and got anti love 

But haters so antiquated, I anticipated 

Accepted it internally at night interpolated 

He chopped it up and laid it in a session and then he played it 

I wrote, recorded to it, now look what we created 

Photos 

A hot mess, I'm hot off the press 

You yesterday's news, dude, you just not fresh 

You cold coffee, you wet cigarettes 

I'm a shot of Espresso and hot morning sex 

Early to rise and the last to fall 

The best thing for black youths is the basketball 

Word to Kurtis Blow, you gotta know the breaks 

And if you don't know your history, I know your fate 

Uh, look, been here a minute, be around a while longer 

Every rhyme invented, my style got stronger 

Grayskull Powers when I spray soul showers 

While you battle rap cats, just lay low cowards 

Oh, you mad 'cause I'm stylin' on you 

Love songs one minute, then I'm whilin' on you 

That's the pain, you gotta love and appreciate 

I'm a bad man, you silly girls need to get it straight 

Hah, small guys, denying this is my world 

Your girlfriend call herself a dark skinned, white girl 

Got a nice beat, man, come on 

He hear me in the sample before he even through the drum on 

Run on sentence, I'm the best period 

He pull the track out, I'll black out I'm not hearing it 

Nada, nothing, the negative zone 

And if you can't do better, you should let it alone, hah 

I want it more than you, I want it, I want it right now 

I'm wanted in 48 statees for this thou 

It's sicker than a syringe that's streamlined with strychnine 

Vegan diet, healthy heart and soul with a sick mind 

Inclined to flip split minds when I spit rhymes 

So go ahead kick yours and hope I don't kick mine 

A 50 yard line against the wind through the uprights 

While you just choke and can't win 'cuz you uptight 

Hah, he came to the game with two emcees 

Back when people said you can't make beats on PCs 

Internet haters, major labels be damned 

Soon produced the full blown threat for the man 

Now his phone blowin' up, he can't hold it in his hand 

A few months back them fools didn't understand 

I was Mary J and Erica, Jean Grey, etc 

But the name's 9th Wonder and he crushing all competitors 

I cross train, toss brain fuel on hot tracks 

Burn in intelligent infernos, you got that? 

I speak clear like the sample is in triplicates 

Get every crooked cop in Los Angeles to handle this 

Insane, inspired, insider street analyst 

Questioning authority who don't know what the answer is 

The voice is proof the choice of the youth 

Forensic evidence say the boy is the truth
