Theme: Justice system and corruption



 Within the halls of law where justice sleeps,

Scales of justification often weep.

Greed talks gently into the ear of might,

As innocence quivers, engulfed by night.


Thousand dreams—bruised and pained,

Dark secrets have to be unchained.

Weary eyes and weary hearts,

Of innocent ones, fighting for their rights.


With silver tongues and iron fists, 

They twist the law—none can resist.

Fraudulent officials steal from their countries,

Tasting the people's public treasury.


Remove those barriers, blocking our way. 

Corrupt officials led astray.

In every victim, a dream ignites. 

Rise as one, and claim our rights. 


Let echoes resound,

Let their voices be heard across the land.
