Rulers And Their Rules

The majority are for the law But laws are for the fools The mighty breaks it with guffaw Fools blindly abide by the rules. Laws are made for the mass To force them to follow some rules By a few known as the ruling class That frames them as disciplinary tools. Laid down to prevent anarchy Laws turn weapons for the powerful Legalize the might and hierarchy Of the forces that control and rule. Laws apply differently for colors of skin Some are treated more equal than others Depend on appearances dirty or clean They don’t treat all mankind as brothers. The strangest thing about the legal rules Is most often for the poor they turn deaf But then you know rules are for fools The rulers can get away with mischief.
