Will You Help Me
Will you help me
Will you be my judge
I was summoned like a peasant
Dragged like a bandit
In the eyes of my innocent child
Called before a jury of envy
To answer a call I did not receive
Oh brother
Will you help me
Will you be my judge
I have been accused of a crime
Of which I have heard nothing of
My testimony has not been delivered
Yet judgement was pronounced
Will you help me
Will you be my judge
My family has been disgraced
Thrown out like left-overs
I have been left to die
Stoned by rocks and curses
Will you help me
Will you be my judge
For this injustice I have faced
I make an appeal to all good and right
To all that fight for justice
And bear witness to this cruel judgement
And on my last drop of blood I swear
They will all pay
