The power of law becomes a farce
Personal ambition usurps justice
The deep protected at the disbursement of the poor
Would you sit on the fence take no chance?
As those batons fall turn a blind eye
In an ideal world
There'd be no motive for law
No demand for police
But in a company so sick
So preoccupied with blind greed
Someone has to protect
The old and the weak

Officer down
Can we really open to be so selectively blind?
If we dig too deep what would we find?
At authority's heart beats a dollar sign
Under such a regime we're all doing time
Striking with impunity
Hiding behind flags of immunity
Never say you weren't warned
When they get to pull you away
To hush the dissident hiding in us all
They grasp the fist of ordained might
From which side of the barbed wire
Do you need to see your life return by?
When reason dies behind closed doors
Face downward in a cell in a consortium of piss
It's time to care what we should respect
It's time to question
Cause and effect
Who teaches the teachers?
Who makes laws for lawmakers?
When they take us our rights
What about human rights?
