Sauce Is Matisse - Innocent (feat. Sophia Omarji) Lyrics

They say The world's messed up, what's new? Man it's always been
A lot of men have wanted land and conquered it in dominance
It's all too prominent, the prejudice in politics
All us sinners flock to finish, falling with no common sense
I wanna vent, but I'm part of the issue
An education never saved this artist from a miscue
I've misused all my privileges and gifts, soon
To settle for whatever devils send to set our grim future
And all this time spent whining while I'm rhyming ill
Coulda been the time I spent inspiring lives and tryna feel
But I'm a real mess, every breath I feel death
I guess I'm meant to be reflective of our real sense
Or lack thereof, we need a slap across the face
Cuz every act enacted by the magistrate is tactic hate
If we retaliate to balance sin and malice
With the power that amalgamates in namaste, we're all erased

We are the problem, we are the answer
We are the cure but we are the cancer
Our world's hurt'll never heal itself
So if we wanna work it out, we gotta see it ourselves, cuz
There's no way we are innocent
Yo, there's no way we are innocent

If we were gone tomorrow, the sorrow needn't drown a god
We been around too long and all our deeds are frowned upon
And now it dawns on us that our beliefs and thoughts are wrong
We're all the same inside and dying when our hour calls
When it's our time, we'll face all of our hatred
The nature of the human race defacing all that's sacred
And while we displayed a painful lack of patience
The angels left our misdirected decimated wasteland
God the intolerance, abominable narcissists
How can you call your neighbor flawed when you're the arsonist?
Your fight's igniting a fire under our carcasses
Harnessing hardened hearts in a heartless attempt to start a cleanse
Marks of mortal sin are more than just enforcing it, true
The coarse acceptance of a war as normal's fortunate, dude
If just ignoring all the torments what you do
Just be informed...the reforming starts with you

We are the problem, we are the answer
We are the cure but we are the cancer
Our world's hurt'll never heal itself
So if we wanna work it out, we gotta see it ourselves, cuz
There's no way we are innocent
Yo, there's no way we are innocent

Now I refuse to speak on any issue in particular
We live at a pivotal point of pitiful indignance
And we're hypocrites...listen, nobody's innocent
You, me, the terrorists, president, pope, and little kids
You can throw your feelings up on social media
But feeling better 'bout your recent posts isn't real enough
I don't believe in ya, you wanna make a difference
Educate your ignorant indifference and live it

We are the problem, we are the answer
We are the cure but we are the cancer
Our world's hurt'll never heal itself
So if we wanna work it out, we gotta see it ourselves, cuz
There's no way we are innocent
Yo, there's no way we are innocent
