Justify

Are they the same
are they worse
Are they giving closure to a personal curse Kill the killer
Abuse the abuser
Rape the rapist
Overdose the drug user

Find ways to justify
Or just an excuse to pacify
Laws and religions
all want control and to crucify
Do you believe it’s right
Or just truing to show off your might

Burn the accused
Hang the thief
Behead the boy
who blasphemes in the street
The worst acts ever committed by Mankind Convincing the masses
it was right at the time
You convinced yourself you were justified

Trains full of families
A rape of a city
Two towers crumble
Running naked from fire in the Jungle
Explain it to me
What is there to gain
When the rich and powerful
cause nothing but pain
Ashamed is what we should be as the human race
We have never deserved to have this place
