i didn't lie to nobody
i don't want to be lied to
i didn't hurt nobody
so don't hurt me
i didn't cheat nobody
i don't want to be cheated
i didn't make this trouble
so just let me be

and i won't make excuses
i don't need an alibi
i'm just an innocent passerby
just a witness to the crime

i don't want to preach
i don't want to be preached at
i don't want to save nobody
i don't want to be saved
i don't want to curse
i don't want to be damned
i don't want to scare nobody
cause i am not afraid

and i won't make excuses
i don't need an alibi
i'm just an innocent passerby
just a witness to the crime

i never had a slave
i don't want to be a slave
i'm not gonna judge
i don't want to be judged
nodody 's trying to kill me
so i don't want to kill
i just want to love
and be lov
