saw him in town,
Not in a good state,
Yes, I actually saw it with my own two eyes;
The angry mob,
Yes, they wanted to give the robbed lady her justice,
Her FREEDOM,
Hoping that by lynching son of man,
Others like him would learn a lesson.
They gave him a thorough beating,
He almost died of,
A broken rib and lip,
A fractured leg and hip,
Son of man,
Why did you lead yourself into temptation?
And so as i watched,
standing from a distance
I wondered...
Was it right to take justice into our own hands,
Did this son of man not deserve a second chance?
Was this the way out really?
