Today you walk down the street,
And do just what you please;
Making crooked deals in allies,
As if no eyes can see.
*****
Lie and cheat your neighbor,
And lure him into a snare;
Reject and betray your brother,
Just like you didnt care.
*****
To the poor and needy,
You quickly turn your back;
Steal and rob your money,
And stuff it in a sack.
*****
Take your neighbors riches,
And cheat against your mate;
Pretend it does not matter,
And evil has no fate.
*****
A good man is filled with sorrow,
When he has done wrong;
You show no remorse,
Unless you wont belong.
*****
So go ahead and pretend,
And go about your way;
For the pain you are causing now,
Will all be yours one day.
