Thirty Minutes in Court

Walked in quiet heart steady chin high

No contract no paper just truth in my eyes

Started as a favor tryna do what was right

Now I'm standing in court under fluorescent lights

Took pictures for love took videos for grace

Never thought kindness could turn to a case

Graduation smiles business deadline times

Somehow my goodwill turned front page headlines

I gave effort without measuring cost

Did it off principle not profit or loss

Now they framing my silence like something I hid

When the only thing missing was paperwork kid

I gave time

I gave skill

I gave heart

No bill

Now they say I owe

What I gave for free

Tryna rewrite history

Thirty minutes in court

Tryna turn love into law

Tryna turn favors to fault

But I stood on truth never lost

Thirty minutes in court

While they questioned my name

I kept my peace held my frame

Let God judge the game
