I would tell you all the things they put me through
The pain I’ve been subjected to
But the lord would suffer and blush
The kindless fleas laid at me feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I feel your pulse would start to rush

Now I’m not looking for the absolution
Or forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I’ve kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Morality was frowned upon
Indecency looked down upon
The scapegoat fates made of me
But I tell you now my judges juror
Intentions couldn’t have been pure
My case is easy to see

I’m not looking for a clearer conscience
Piece of pie after what I’ve been through
But before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
And try walking in my shoes

You stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I’ve kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my...

Now I’m not looking for the absolution
Or forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I’ve kept
If you try walking in my shoes
You stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I’ve kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
