A Mean Kind of Justice
Unveiling the Dance of Cosmic Justice
Lyrics
There's a ring around the moon,
Symbolizes an unusual phenomenon or disturbance.
There's a chill in the air.
Indicates a sense of coldness or discomfort in the atmosphere.
There's a mean kind of justice,
Refers to a harsh or unjust form of justice.
Coming down coming down
Emphasizes the imminent arrival of this form of justice.
Angels wring their hands and put ashes on their heads
Describes a scene where angels express distress and sorrow.
There's a mean kind of justice coming down.
Reiterates the impending arrival of a harsh justice.
It don't ever stop a thing,
States that this form of justice does not bring resolution.
An eye for eye, tic for tat
Describes a tit-for-tat approach, lacking true satisfaction.
And I've never seen nobody truly satisfied like that
Observation that no one is truly content with revenge.
It just rolls around the head eating holes in your heart
Imagery of negative thoughts causing emotional damage.
There's a mean kind of justice coming down.
Reiterates the forthcoming harsh justice and its impact.
There is a goodness on this earth
Acknowledges the enduring presence of goodness on Earth.
That will not die will not die
Emphasizes the resilience and permanence of goodness.
It bears all, and seen it all, and still it survives
Describes the all-encompassing and enduring nature of goodness.
I know that we have failed,
Recognizes human failures.
But I I've seen that we can fly
Expresses optimism and belief in the potential for positive change.
There's goodness on this earth that will not die
Reiterates the enduring nature of goodness despite failures.
Oh no, forgiveness never sleeps
Asserts that forgiveness is a constant, unyielding force.
But the devil wants its due and says human life is cheap
Highlights the opposing force that values human life cheaply.
When we give up any hope we could ever change the past,
Describes the importance of letting go of the past for change.
Then at last, then at last
Emphasizes the significance of accepting the inability to change the past.
There's a ring around the moon,
Repeats the earlier imagery of an unusual celestial event.
There's a chill on the breeze.
Reiterates the sense of discomfort or unease in the atmosphere.
There's somebody with their hands clasped,
Describes someone in a humble or prayerful position.
Down on their knees.
Depicts a person in a state of supplication or seeking help.
Angels hold their breath for what might set them free.
Describes angels holding their breath, anticipating a significant event.
There's a mean kind of justice coming down.
Repeats the theme of impending harsh justice.
