AS THE BLIND SEE

Blinded by haughty pride not in my stride - democracy in incognito with a show - ism and skism some like to blame - human beings light many flames - crime defined by partial minds interpreted in courts controlled by men enslaved in bigotry - police enforcing the law of a system blighted with myopia insiduous with discrimination - money is their god - money makes their world turn - money ain't nothing but with money they turned our world - invisible equity - biased hypocrites - wide awake no mistake no justice but they justify in their terms reasons for denied partiality - it's all comin' out as the blind see

One law for all don't mean it should be the whitemans - some people forget what it is to be human - vehement acts of suppression to we native - the deciever is driven by fear to be overcome with overstanding - misled by self doubting dubious morals from the author while questions are lost to apathy - innocent until proven guilty - by twelve men and women chosen from a society - incapable of providing free choice - unquestioned morals serve as a litmus test - for which only the sheep believe for they haven't yet seen or heard or overstood what the righteous heed - but the blind will see and then we'll see

This laws a redneck law - institutional racism with blameless flaws - this justice wretched by nepotists - bigotted in concept -inept and lacking depth - they neva wanna hear it - got the masses subdued into an - only the good news mode - while we get mainly bad news on the news - well excuse me - cause I'm bringing the good news - cause I refuse to be quelled - by the moral right left or whateva - who cares anyway - I even say when I care - burdened with a chip on my shoulder - no shit - know ya place cause I do - I'm so overjoyed to help the blind see
