Witness - Mindset

Blind Eyes

They say Justice is blind but the hand is numb

No compassion for the people held under it’s thumb

As the chains of oppression were left to rust

Another man took a seat at the back of the bus

Witness

Progress made can’t be denied yet so many lives remain cast aside

Free from guilt?

I didn’t light the match…

Turn away from the flame as it burns my back

My mouth is dry, but if the levee burst

Would I douse the flames or quench my thirst?

When we close our eyes we close our fists

Our blindness ensures that oppression exists
