Injustice

Anacrusis


They manipulate and they mold 
The rules they should uphold 
His ignorance of the law 
Is the victim's only flaw 

His rights in violation 
Through sharp intimidation 
He's soon to realize 
That their words are full of lies 

A scapegoat he now is 
Because of the way he lives 
He hasn't got a chance 
To prove his innocence 
People cry for justice 
But the law will not take the heed 
Innocent victims get the shaft 
But what happened to truth? 

Injustice for all 

Coerced to pleading guilt 
Their judgments all are built 
On bullshit and hearsay 
They'll keep him locked away 

He rots inside his cage 
His oppression and his rage 
Now apathy and disgust 
Not a soul he can trust 

A scapegoat he now is 
Because of the way he lives 
He hasn't got a chance 
To prove his innocence 
People cry for justice 
But the law will not take the heed 
Innocent victims get the shaft 
But what happened to truth? 

Injustice for all 

Injustice has subdued him 
Deceived, repressed, unglued him 
No one he can turn to 
To wait is all he can do 
Persecution obvious 
Life becomes oblivious 
Fate's found him unwary 
He's trapped, he cannot flee 

Injustice

Injustice 
Injustice for all
