[03:42.45]My people hurt or murdered [03:43.51]It ain't worth it I can't think of [03:45.04]A perfecter way to word it [03:46.36]Then to just say that I love y'all [03:47.98]Too much to see the verdict [03:49.65]I'll walk away from it all before [03:50.97]I'll let it go any further [03:52.66]But don't get it twisted [03:53.76]It's not a plea that I'm coping [03:55.50]I'm just willing to be
