Court of Public Opinion – Truth Takes Time

🎶 “They say justice is blind... but the mob is unforgiven.” Court of Public Opinion — a modern spoken-word and gospel fusion exploring what it feels like to be judged by the “new town square”… social media.
In today’s world, you don’t need a courtroom — just a comment section. Everyone’s a judge, and truth often arrives too late to testify.
This piece is for anyone who’s been misunderstood, betrayed, or canceled — a reminder that God still knows your name, your truth, and your worth. 🎧 "They can trend your name, but they can’t erase your soul."
✝️ In the Court of Public Opinion — I’m free, ‘cause God’s my friend.

But not everyone’s got the truth.
So welcome to the court of public opinion —
Where you’re guilty… just for livin’.

Don’t let ‘em drag you in,
They’ll say you’re guilty as sin.
In the court of public opinion,
It’s just you against a million.
An angry mob pointing fingers,
Screens lighting up the night,
Everyone a judge and jury,
No defense, just slanderers denying your rights.

Your accusers are usually friends or family,
Throwing their first stones,
Those who know your secrets,
Who sat and ate in your home.
Truth’s still tying up its shoes,
While lies already win.
People rather feast on fiction,
Then listen to both ends.
In the court of public opinion,
You’re guilty once again.

A lie runs fast; the truth limps slow.
Fake news wearing a righteous glow.
They’ll scroll right past a prayer for peace,
But click to watch a brother’s soul released.
We’ve seen betrayal with a smiling face,
And loyalty fade without a trace.
But in the smoke, through tears and fear,
That diamond in the rough appears.

(Reflective Bridge)
Funny how quick they point the finger,
And how slow they lend a hand.
Grace don’t fade with gossip,
And truth always finds a man.
They shout their lies from rooftops,
But whispers reach the throne.
God don’t need the crowd’s approval —
He already knows His own.

It’s the one who stood when others ran,
The one who whispered, “I see their plan.”
Not for likes, not for show,
But because they know your soul.
Real friends don’t chase attention,
They lead the charge of redemption.

In the court of public opinion,
You’ll stand alone, but you still win.
Truth don’t die, it just takes time,
To crawl back out from under the lies.
They’ll throw stones, they’ll twist and spin,
But keep fighting, false accusations a sin.
In the court of public opinion,
God knows the truth — and He’s your friend.

(Soft Outro)
Let ‘em talk, let ‘em trend,
The truth will catch up in the end.
I don’t need the world’s permission,
To know where I stand — I’m forgiven.
