They sit with their legs crossed
Toasting to their success
As if punishing us wasn't enough
Our hands tied behind us
Suffering from the punishment they deserve

They took away our homes
And locked us behind bars
Burning our evidence into ashes
Leaving us with nothing

They threaten us with their power
Instilling fear in us
Making it look as if the truth is now a lie
They bought our witness with their power
And made them conspire against us

They bought a coffin worth millions of dollars
Just to bury the truth
And laid new rules for us to follow

They formed ally with our judges  
Making the whole case a useless one  
Our heart is now filled with hatred and anger

They won the case  
But what they don't know is
The power of truth will always prevail
