Was once a time when all around
our children's laughter was the sound
that echoed in the streets
Now your neighbors cooking meth
young kids out there dealing death
and families all around declare defeat
The prisons filled to overflowing
the criminal element ever growing
with jail house schools to teach our children crime
A vicious cycle born of fear
cloaked in justice, a thin veneer
to hide the vengeance which is sought through time
