Of Liars and Thieves

So many things taken from me, my sweat my blood my soul
So often fallen prey to the cowards, deceivers and lies that they told
Forever betrayed, forever the fool, humbled and thrown to my knees
A world where honor dies with the bold and spoils go to the weak
In days of yore the guilty were punished –
A punishment fit to the crime
A sentence measured in pain and remorse
Penance in blood not in time
Those days have long passed, justice is weak
Thieves and deceivers abound
The guilty must pay for all they’ve taken
The cries of the victims resound

How long must I live with these lies?
Forces of fury arise!
Cleanse the world of this disease
Pandemic of liars and thieves

Sever the hand of the thief who would boldly
Steal the bread from your plate
Rip out the forked tongue of the devious liar…
Leave him gurgling in pain
Brand their skin and flay their flesh marked so all can see
Cripple them, rape them: piss in their face
Stab them and leave them to bleed!
Shatter their limbs beneath the Wheel,
Bones splintered and pulverized
String them up bleeding and there they can stay
Till the vultures have eaten out their eyes
Leave the gruesome remains to remind
Those who would stray from the path
Veracity’s virtue is its own reward
Transgression brings fury and wrath

Victims of cruelty arise
The hour of judgment arrives
Begging they die on their knees
Rabble of liars and thieves

Beg and plead
Die and bleed
