Generate meaning
1
The scales of justice
2
Weighed down on one side
3
Freemasons on the case
4
You know you're gonna get a rough ride
5
Hold tight, even if you know your rights
6
It's just a piece of paper unless you're prepared to fight
7
For ten years, one hell of a long time to rot in a cell
8
When you've committed no crime
9
Another innocent man forced to carry the can
10
Free Satpal Ram
11
Whose word against who?
12
The degenerate crew out on the town
13
Thought they had something to prove
14
Self defense is no offense
15
Had to protect himself from the murderous fools
16
Cutting remarks on account of his race
17
A plate to the chest and a glass in his face
18
An Asian fights back
19
Can't afford to be meek
20
With your back against the wall
21
You can't turn the other cheek
22
Back away all you trouble makers
23
Fix up your brains 'cause you're the biggest fakers
24
You come in the place
25
Do you know who you are?
26
Free Satpal Ram
27
Satpal ram has been in prison for ten years now
28
Unjustly convicted of murder
29
He was attacked in a restaurant
30
In Birmingham by six racists
31
Having been glassed in the face
32
He had no choice but to def end himself
33
One of the attackers got injured
34
And later died after refusing treatment
35
Satpal was subsequently charged with murder
36
Satpal was provided with lawyers
37
Who refused to argue his case
38
They made him change his plea
39
Of self-defense to that of manslaughter
40
Most of the prosecution evidence
41
Came from the group that attacked Satpal
42
The all-white jury missed vital evidence
43
Because no interpreter was provided.
44
The judge said he would interpret
45
But couldn't speak a word of Bengali
46
The jury weren't asked to consider
47
If Satpal's actions were in self-defense and found him guilty
48
It's taken ten years to get the criminal justice system
49
To allow any appeal
50
Enough is enough
