No One Is Innocent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They ignore the real weight of my life thinking their life are much louder than mine. They judge my friends my clothes and my name they got the power, but I still got pain, but I don't give a damn, just keep a front for their eyes. Gonna make those mother fuckers realize. I'm blind, I'm def but most of all I'm dumb. To you I'm a number and I've got to run. Why should I pay for your crimes with my tears? Why is there a smile on the 20 dollars bill?
Rusty face for you my friend I tell ya. In god we trust you tell me but let me tell you I don't.
Those mother fuckers don't give a damn about the way I live, about the thing I claim. Rusted blood in your rusted veines, rusted laws are the rusted chains. Your religion I don't want anymore let me move let me choose, I'm sick to the core. Ignorant that's the name I give ya, looked up minds and rusted souls. Out of date or simple-minded so stupid to believe it. I shoult my lyrics straight to you like a bomb. I give any credit and on floor let you drop.
And make those MFS realize...

The singer feels as though they are constantly being judged, criticized, and undervalued, and that their struggles are completely ignored.
The singer makes it clear that they are fed up with this treatment, and that they will not be silenced. They are angry and resentful towards the system, and they want to shake things up and make people pay attention to their pain. The singer uses strong language and powerful imagery to convey their sense of anger and defiance, and the song as a whole is a powerful statement about the need for change and justice.
