Babylon Snatch My Chalice

Just the other day
The vultures pounced on him
They cornered and beat him
He begged for mercy
But the vultures were thirsty 
For blood and money
Just because they found
Four joints in his pocket
Dear ghetto
Why do we get malice
Whenever we cry for justice?
Does a man deserve injustice
For smoking herb in a chalice?
