There is the letter of the law
And there is the spirit of the law.
Both of them have their merits.
Like dangling carrots.

The real problem is we are not consistent.
If the rules apply to all the same,
Then we are in a pretty fair game.
But the ones who hold the cards do not change.

I get frustrated by lack of equal rights.
I get frustrated that the game is rigged.
I get frustrated by unfair fights.
I get frustrated that no one truly gives.

The law is rigged for those privileged.
The law can be bent if you don't have a cent.
The law does not apply to those in power who lie.
The law does not apply to the one percent.
