Without A Reason (Excessive Actions) - by J. Samuelson Copyright2002 01/18
Steel bands behind my back Rusted iron bars before me Mistreated, accused wrongly It all happened so quickly.
It only took an instant My cheek slammed into ice It shattered on the trunk lid He made me pay the price.
Abuse, Without A Reason Who does he think he is? Hes not above the law No grounds to act like this.
So now I sit in my cell One chance to use the phone To call for some assistance And pray shes still at home.
Cold and damp around me In this small bed I lie Locked up Without A Reason Just watching time go by.
Now sitting in the courtroom Theyre calling out my name Its time to share my story Ill tell it all the same.
The D.A. said he was wrong Excessive force was used He went beyond the limits And left me swelled and bruised.
Now I must wait for trial And prove it on the stand All I need are the pictures Its in the judges hand.
Back to my cell Im taken All I can do is wait Still held Without A Reason Its all up to the state.
Im only seeking justice An example must be made Unfair how I was treated The way I was betrayed.
The law got used against me Now I will stand and fight For actions Without A Reason To turn this wrong to right.
My day is quickly coming Now that Im home to stay The trial will be over Hell be the one to pay.
Its just too bad, his power Took him out of control I saw it in his eyes The doubt, taking its toll.
Confined, Without A Reason I know Ill be okay No more Without A Reason Justice will find its way.
