This Law

The law...
Has got flaws
Grown claws
Made clause
To shut doors

The law...
Has got uniforms
Guns and muscles
To silence your heart
And chill your mind

The law
Has got attitude
Manners of hate
Powers of vulture
To paralyse your freedom

The laws...
Has got bi-laws
Sharpened Claws
Amended clause
To be what it wants

The law...
Has got courts
That will court
Your poverty
Into cold prisons

The law...
Has got vengeance
Rigid legislations
To sentence you
To the end of life

The law...
Has got interest
To protect and keep
Friends to buy and serve
Agendas to push and impose

The law...
Has got laws
To rule over and maintain
Keep under a watchful law
And disregard humanity.
