Where spilled blood speaks of more than decay
It’s the soul torn by indifference’s might
And the law, once justice, fades from sight
The poor, martyrs to their cruel fate

Just a boy to play , with toys to fetch
I could'nt care less for herbs and cress
Now the house of Jim Hall grew mint for his tea
It grew the sweetest of nectar so close...
