Injustice


You tell us to put our faith in a system that is fair and just

but for the rest of us that is not enough.

 

We watch those that have power become unfair and unjust

and it's sad to say that they become even more corrupt.

 

As the choice they make is good and read.

I can't help, but know that the people that are

wronged are in the many.

 

We trust the system to enforce the law but there have

been times where they twisted the law.

 

Even though it is something that everyone cannot see, but

I guarantee that some us believe.

 

To speak up against a system that isn't 

fair and just is a must.
