Justice

Stand I on the line that starts the run or race Eyes are fixed on the destination Legs are ready And tight is my body and mind But I am not alone here, there are many Taller is the left guy, weightier is right Still idiots shout and I am told This is the field of freedom and equality And I am here given equity so I have a great chance To reach my goal or touch my finishing line But I see this is nothing but cheating This world is full of stupid How a poor man can complete with a man who is rich? Or how a weak man can contest with a man who is strong? So I say your equality and freedom are totally wrong And equity is not better either Meanwhile the whistle is blown I try my best but the richer becomes first Second becomes the strong Even the third place is not achieved by me It is given to the tout who serves the king Despondent remain I for a moment Then an idea clicked From now on I yell and I shout Without justice this world is deaf and blind.
