the price to be paid has soared
soared out of reach like a bird of prey
there is no justice for the poor
the goddess has removed the blind fold
now blinded by united states dollars
now also blinded by the rand
the souls of officials are up for sale
the poor will yearn for justice
the rich use officers like door mats
charades are acted out in court rooms
murderers get away with murder
rapists buy their way out of jail
the poor continue to be the victims
the victims of their poverty
the rich commit crimes with impunity
the poor' s rights are trampled on
the scandalous are cheered on
court officials in the mafia' strangle hold
laughing all the way to the banks
enjoying all those empty trinkets
the goddess of justice has been raped
the blind fold has been removed
the goddess is now blind to justice
