Soul for Hire (Live)

[Chorus]

Hang my head and shut my eyes

What kind of justice is this?

Fool I was, I thought that you fought fire with fire

Got to me more than just a soul for hire

[Verse 1]

Speaking for myself I wouldn't take the fame, the fees, the glory

For whoring in the practice of the law

I make my case stop and stutter

Soul comes unglued from the uppers

Blood is seeping in the hole

A mother's eye is weeping

I see every human kind

And still the truth is distant

I see every evil men do and desire

Got to be more then just a soul for hire

When it's time to give protection

To the ones who need it most, who are desperate

I get distracted from my job

Streams of ink and piles of paper

What are the breaks?

Jump out the window? Parole? Escape?

Blood is seeping in the hole

A mother's eye is weeping

[Chorus]

Hang my head and shut my eyes

What kind of justice is this?

Fool I was, I thought that you fought fire with fire

Got to me more than just a soul for hire

[Verse 2]

When it's time to give protection

To the ones who need it most, who are desperate

I get distracted from my job

Streams of ink and piles of paper

To hand them over to dopers and kiddie-reapers

Corrupt in every twisted grudge

And that is just the judge

[Outro]

Hang my head and shut my eyes

What kind of justice it this?

Hang my head and shut my eyes

What kind of justice it this?

Hang my head and shut my eyes

What kind of justice it this?
