Eye For An Eye Lyrics

They give him the arms
Deprive him of bread,
Yet wonder why he
Couldn't have fed himself

They feel no remorse
They feel no shame
When selling their souls
For someone to blame
Relieving their conscience and clearing their minds
Of past injustice and bygone crimes

An eye for an eye, so let him die
Let them believe that he's evil
A tooth for a tooth, conceal the truth
So that things will never change

Walking that road
For many a day
Is more than one can
Expect him to pay for his crime Bring out the block
Tie the noose
Spice the wine
The vultures will choose
The means of quenching their thirst for blood
Basing their act on a mandate from God

An eye for an eye...

Where have we gone
If lights are put out
With vengeance in mind
And mischief in mouth - the lies, oh the lies

When hate is the cause
And prejudice thrives
They fall into taking
Innocent lives
The same atrocity for which they
Just have made an innocent pay

An eye for an eye...
