Vincent Simmons Lyrics by Simon

Project Fiver

0

[Hook]
His only crime was skin colour of Night x2
That’s why you're living a living Nightmare x2

[Verse 1]
Angola bound to his final ground
Charged with rape
(the Doctor says she’s still a virgin)
Convicted solely on eye witness identification
In the line up she was asked who committed the violation
Shrugged her shoulders told us an abomination
All blacks look alike (so why did they choose me)
The police skipped the red tape
They beat him after the line up
They shot him after the line up
Final mile they had him line up
Legally lynch on the death chair
Have his life left there
Instead they gave him life a hundred
Justice was about to be blundered
But he had a trial fair no
But he had a lawyer prepared no
But he had a jury cared no
Nastiness was their only emotion
They didn’t file one single motion

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
Angola bound justice frowned
The judge was having a laugh
A sentence ha, he gave a paragraph
Locked up for a century in a penitentiary
It used to be a slave plantation
They snatched blacks and denied their emancipation
Restrained them in chains
Hard labour their occupation
Ha at least they didn’t keep Auschwitz tradition
Lawsuits is the mission
Legal bandits want to ban this petition
But I stay Focused All Day
Free Vincent Simmons today

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
(Order)
I was at home with my family at the time of the crime
Now I’m warehoused here living a living hell
Bed, toilet and a basin 100 years I’m facing
Locked in this cell living a living hell
Remorse for a sin I didn’t commit
I watched Obama voted in and thought that was it
End of living a living hell
I just want time with my family, walk through parks
On the beach, smell flowers, have a bath
But I’m busy living a living hell
I'll be buried here if don’t complete my sentence
When my heart stops body forms that full stop
Spread my ashes across the universe
So I can be free finally free
From living a living hell

[Hook]

[Outro Hook]
Angola bound justice frowned
The judge was having a laugh
A sentence ha, he gave a paragraph
Locked up for a century in a penitentiary
It used to be a slave plantation
They snatched blacks and denied their emancipation
Restrained them in chains
Hard labour their occupation

[Outro]
Vincent Simmons
Is still in prison
Sign the petition
