Abolitio et Iustitia

from War is Peace Punk by ZE

/

about

From the Latin "abolitio," meaning the act of abolishing a system, practice, or institution, and "iustitia," meaning the administering of punishment or reward.

lyrics

Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice
Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice

This is the order of things
How it’s always been
A jail of the mind
That we live within

Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice
Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice

But we make the structure
And can unmake it
Remit and refrain
From exacting punishment

Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice
Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice

Let’s unchain ourselves
Let’s change the solution
Not build more cells
To lock people in

Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice
Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice

Seize it, cease it
The design, perverse
Paid for in blood
Yet has no worth

Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice
Stop killing and caging
And calling it justice
