Innocent Man
Rag'n'Bone Man Lyrics
I've been a victim of some sorry circumstance
That was committed by somebody else's hand
And only heaven knows how I've ended up so broke
I ain't guilty but I'm left fearing the stand
It's not my crime, so why do I have to pay?
I'm doing time, this feeling I can't shake
I'm lost in the suffering for nothing
My heart don't understand
It's beating for an innocent man
How was I supposed to know that I'd be fooled?
And the sweetest kiss could ever be so cruel
I could always let it go, but it's out of my control
Now I'm right back here still holding on to you
It's not my crime, so why do I have to pay?
I'm doing time, this feeling I can't shake
I'm lost in the suffering for nothing
My heart don't understand
It's beating for an innocent man
Man, man
From wanting, to meeting
Cut me, I'm bleeding
This heart keeps on beating
For you
It's not my crime, so why do I have to pay?
I'm doing time, this feeling I can't shake
I'm lost in the suffering for nothing
My heart don't understand
It's not my crime, so why do I have to pay?
I'm doing time, this feeling I can't shake
I'm lost in the suffering for nothing
My heart don't understand
It's beating for an innocent man

The amount of people thinking this was just released and didnt come from the absolute banger of an album from 2017 is lowkey kinda sad. If y'all haven't heard that album, GO LISTEN TO IT. An actual perfect album.

I just stumbled across him a couple days ago and am wondering why I never heard of him before

@José Ariel Bonilla I realized my Comment seemed super hipster or whatever, but I just meant that I'm so surprised people who are already fans didn't know about these. But hey I ain't complaining either, gives me an excuse to go and listen to it after a long time of not listening to this album. I miss it.

@AJ Culum I thought so too tbh? It may be re-releasing it now that he has a much bigger following from Giant and all the collabs and projects hes done recently?
AJ Culum
Yeah. Also I would’ve sworn the official audio was already on YouTube before today

I need to invest in a home sound system so I can hear this gorgeous voice the right way. A voice like this is a piece of art and it needs to be properly respected and appreciated ❤️
