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.
