Bad Seed Lyrics

We knew the risk coming into this place

We're certainly not here not here to make friends

There's no free pass because of your race

This is where your little panther party ends

I tried my best to do it by the book

But the book don't mention nothing like this

Now I'm on the news and everybody can look

They manipulate the chain of events

Now I'm standing trial

Jurys gonna put me away

Just wanted clean up the streets

And keep the city I love safe

All I wanted was to keep the city safe

Keep the city safe

All I wanted was to keep the city safe

Keep the city safe

He clearly wanted any excuse to kill one of us

That's probably why you took this job in the first place

You can see the hatred in his eyes if you look close

He shot that innocent black man because of his race

Now let's all look at this picture of his victim at age 5

Clearly this child could do no wrong

They're painting a mural of an angel on the wall outside

Let's put this man in prison where he belongs

Now I'm standing trial

Jurys gonna put me away

Just wanted clean up the streets

And keep the city I love safe

All I wanted was to keep the city safe

Keep the city safe

All I wanted was to keep the city safe

Keep the city safe
