Maintained By Force - Discourse

They’ve forced the conditions

that rob the youth of potential

See the addicts as less than human

made violence the only solution

Maintained by force

I know my enemy

cause he’s marked clearly

The uniform erases

the person within

How many more have to die

at the hands of law enforcement?

How many more have to face

decades locked in a cage?

You’ve known your enemy

you’ve seen ritual abuse

Maintenance of order

offered up as an excuse

Punishment falls, but not on the guilty
