Understanding the public’s need for vengeance, the State has been given permission to commit murder,
for crimes so hideous, they forfeit their right to live.
suspending the “Fifth Commandant”, what else can we give?
Taking their life is a gift, thus ending their sin and pain
life in solitary confinement will better destroy all their gain
and put an end the practice, of sanctioned murder by necessity
as we hold the Fifth Commandant up to the world majestically
***********
The prison system needs changing, it’s much to easy to do time
remove all the fancy amenities, “Hell! They’ve committed a crime!”
***********
I know there’s the pressure from being locked-up and all
with the worst of the worst neighbors “Why, it’s the Law Breakers Mall.”
A law has been broken, a punishment now stands
an all-expense-paid vacation complements of Uncle Sam
Take away the TV’s, Radios, Weights and other toys
we’re feeding and housing them, a vacation with the “boys”
They are there to be punished, sentenced for committing a crime
THE RULE: “….if you break the law, you gun’na do hard time.”

Opening salvo aimed at a major problem modern society has made a complete mess of.
The expensive and outrageous cost to put someone to death is completely unacceptable.
We are giving the State permission to kill someone in our name.
This is a slippery slope we should get off of immediately.
The death penalty doesn’t deter the crime – a truth,
spending the next 50+ years in solitary confinement might
The death penalty exist as a relic of the past.
Vengeance for obscene acts committed.
True vengeance for law-breakers
incarceration, strict confinement
for a capital offense, solitary confinement
Thinking we are a moral society
yet with the same breath we sanction the ending a life
We are, “…..laboring under a misconception.”
and let’s not forget
the murder … the killing
is of one of our own
Still, we say it’s “A-OK” to kill ‘em)”.
