Jim Robert - Taking Lives

I swear. No one believes me.
If I can't get through this
Then I will not ever see
The light of day ever again.

(again)

They say I am not a man.
I am I am some thing
Give me a number to seize
My life; I will not cry

(Give me an appeal.
I want a jury.
Won't accept the deal
I am not a victim)

To take a life is to lose your own life
To lose your own life, it must be taken
By another man who, by what means is
Justified to revoke the life of another
I believe that god possesses the power to
Give life to a man and exclusive rights
To take it from him and that no man
By any means may encroach on god's rights
(Ever)

I have no hope now that the
Man who governs is up
For his re-election now
And he wants to crack down

(Again)

On Crime. Looks good on TV
So he can hold on to his
Office and Power that he
Does love more than his own life

(I can't give back the
Life that was taken
Something surrounds me
I am not a victim)
