Justice a double edged sword

Justice

About trust. And about finding someone you love hurting another. And the
conundrum it brings, as to whether you remain loyal or follow your morals...

I think my view is clear
I would walk the longest path for you
And tackle the highest mountain
If you were the Mafias target I would kill them
If a murderer shot you I would take the bullet
But if you turn, and start to be a liar
If you turn and go against the ones you 'love'
I will hunt you down and shoot you to the ground
I will slit your wrist and watch you bleed
The moment you say something bad
Is the moment I will watch you die
It's just the way I work
I can love you more than the world itself
But if you turn nasty I will watch you burn
Just because you're an angel to my face
Doesn't mean you can hurt other people
Just because you are friendly with me
Doesn't mean you can get away with murdering the innocent
If you slay the innocent I will slay you
Justice needs to exist to stop the evil spreading
Justice is a fine way to explain what I'm doing to you

Crime Without Justice

We live in a dysfunctional society,
Where criminals come as a variety.
Where life is very cheap;
And not your own to respect and keep!

Cops and robbers call the shots.
While murder and hijacking stays tops.
You cannot distinguish between friend and foe.
Not knowing to which side to go!

Cops took an oath to protect and serve.
Sometimes leaving you with more than you deserve.
They take your life and rob your car,
Leaving you to bleed while not getting far!

Is this what we call a civilised race,
Or is it just one big disgrace?
It's up to you to decide.
I hear a siren and I am going to hide!
