I AM TROY DAVIS

I am the man that killed no one
While people protest to free the son
Of Martina
I pray to God for ya!

I am the man that pities you fools
Do you think the penalty of death is cool?
That judicial system that kills innocents
People, today are mad. You didn't give two cents.

You postpone a life?! That's nothing to play with
Now you've got this new "Hip"
Generation mad as hell.
These young teens have something to tell.

A life, my life, you put on hold.
The people of America now know
That America doesn't give a damn! Now, I'll tell you who I am.

I am no racist!
I am the executed, innocent Troy Davis!
