Soul for Hire

[Verse 1]
Hang my head and shut my eyes
What kind of justice is this?
Fool I was, I thought that you fought fire with fire
Got to be more than just a soul for hire

[Bridge 1]
Speaking for myself I wouldn't take the fame, the fees, the glory
For whoring in the practice of the law
I make my case stop and stutter, soul comes unglued from the uppers
Blood is seeping in the hole, a mother's eye is weeping

[Verse 2]
I see every human kind
And still the truth is distant
I hear every evil men do and desire
Got to be more than just a soul for hire

[Bridge 2]
When it's time to give protection to the ones who need it most, who are desperate
I get distracted from my job
Streams of ink and piles of paper
What are the breaks? Jump out the window? Parole? Escape?
Blood is seeping in the hole, a mother's eye is weeping

[Verse 3]
Hang my head and shut my eyes
I can't see justice twisted
I see every evil men do and desire
Got to be more than just a soul for hire

[Bridge 3]
When it's time to give protection to the ones who need it most, who are desperate
I get distracted from my job
Streams of ink and piles of paper to hand them over to dopers and kiddie rapers
Corrupt in every twisted grudge and that is just the judge

[Outro]
Hang my head and shut my eyes
What kind of justice is this?
Hang my head and shut my eyes
What kind of justice is this?
Hang my head and shut my eyes
What kind of justice is this?
