Way Too Much Power

Way too much power stacked up on the shelf, Almost as much power as the Lord God himself, No room for human error no room for mistake, With a long list of families and hearts they did break, Whose was the decision? Who deemed it correct? It's a fine line between nurture and neglect, Misinterpretation is just no excuse, Is it child protection or maybe child abuse? As you gather the details each in its right place, Have you got all the facts right to build up ya case? Was it mere chastizing or harsh push 'n' shove? As you remove these kids from the families they love, And the homes that get broken are tossed on the pile, As the kid with no mummy forgets how to smile, As the powers that be sit deciding your fate, There are no words of wisdom that can compensate, So where lies the answer to whom love deprives? Given way too much power to play God with kids lives.
