But I promise now, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
Now I'm not looking for absolution
But before you come to any conclusions
Forgiveness for the things I do
Forgiveness for the things I do
Peace of mind after what I've been through
Try walking in my shoes
The pain I've been subjected to
But the Lord himself would blush
The scapegoat fate's made of me
Keep the same appointments I kept
And before we talk of any repentance
Morality would frown upon
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Keep the same appointments I kept
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
You'll stumble in my footsteps
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
But I think your pulse would start to rush
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Decency look down upon
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Keep the same appointments I kept
You'll stumble in my footsteps
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
My case is easy to see
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Now I'm not looking for absolution
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Try walking in my shoes
