Guilty

An internal courtroom battle between Logic, Gut, and Heart. The Prosecutor presents the evidence, the Judge tries to stay calm, and the Defense crumbles. The smoking gun? A cold blank stare. Case closed.

Lyrics

They say love is blind

But my gut my gut has 20/20 vision

The Judge in my head is tired

He wants to dismiss the case

But the Black Box the recorder e no dey lie

Lets look at the telemetry

My Prosecutor the Gut e dey scream for the room

Pointing at the shadows pointing at the doom

E say look at the pattern

Look at the drift

Every time you reach out shes widening the rift

But the Judge my Logic e just wan stay calm

E dey look for the Good e dey look for the balm

E say maybe shes tired maybe its stress

The Prosecutor laughs omo look at this mess

Im a Hostage Negotiator for my own soul

Trying to make a fragment feel like a whole

And the Judge my Mind e dey try to be fair

E say objection theres still love in the air

But the Prosecutor drops the file on the floor

Love no be love when e hurts you this sore

I was the Defense Attorney for the person killing me

Stuttering trying to find a plea

Omo the Verdict is stalling

The Judge is waiting for Exhibit A

The Prosecutor my Heart is barely alive

E dey ask why we still dey try to survive

Its an Internal War

My Judge e lock the door

The evidence is piled on the floor

Waiting waiting for the final push

And then the Big One hit

The mask e don fall

It wasnt about the money it wasnt about the brawl

I tell you Im drowning Im gasping for air

You looked at my face and you didnt even care

No anger no passion

Just a cold blank stare

You checked your phone while I was standing there bare

That was the Incontrovertible

The smoking gun

The moment I realized Im already gone

My Judge e stood up

He didnt say a word

The sound of your silence was the loudest thing I heard

Look lets look at the logs lets look at the feed

The data is showing a different breed

You werent a partner you were a need

Sucking the oxygen watching me bleed

Contempt of Court nah Contempt of the Man

You broke every clause of the original plan

Im filing the Notice of Total Vacate

Youre a squatter in a heart that used to be great

Check the receipts of the Small Scale Wars

The way you used my secrets to settle your scores

Thats a Breach of Contract

A Breach of the Peace

Im calling the Bailiff to sign the release

The Judge don see am

The verdict is Guilty

Your Defense is shallow your Evidence filthy

Gavel to the wood

The perimeter is clear

The only thing dead in this room is the Fear

The Court finds the defendant absent

The Love in question was never present

This isnt a breakup its a liberation

Execution of the bond is the only salvation

The case is closed

Thank you Exhibit A

I didnt think Id ever see you

But now wey I see you I finally see me

Case closed

Disqualified
