Unfortunately Twisted

Unfortunately Twisted

Woe to those who call evil, good
And good, they call "evil"
Twisted Justice, have misunderstood
The Ten Commandments at will.

Woe to those who defend the wicked
Who present lies as truth sworn
Before the Word of God unvalued, said
Reap eternal judgment and scorn.

Such waste of excellent education!
Such mockery of their fellowmen's rights!
Injustice is hailed as good, that's Deception-
Hollow's the heart and corrupted the sight!

Truth can be twisted unfortunately
Lawyers and judges can be blind;
Victims can be made out to be "guilty"
But in the end, God deals with their kind.
