In the dark recesses of my mind I see this life’s predilection for evil

In the sunny side of my mind I see the appreciation of beauty

It is all in the balance, of good and evil

How to weight the scales in favour of good

How to balance the scales in a country that wants to criminalise the poor

Asking us to turn our backs on the persecuted who come knocking at our door

It’s time for us to stand up and say this isn’t done in my name, life doesn’t have to be this way
