You come looking for justice Well, baby, that’s gon’ be a process If you’re the victim of a crime or the accused You don’t have to be running your mind, pursue the truth
The system we share’s supposed to be fair Criminal or a civil affair Appellate or supreme, the court meets the need
You have the right to say what you want You love who you love, pass things to the court
All rise, all rise All rise, all rise When you need the law, the courts heed the call Justice for one mean justice for all All rise (all rise), all rise
A fair and speedy trial’s a right no one can take Justice delayed is justice denied, that’s just a game Due process means you have the right to equality, yeah Worship or not, courts, they guarantee
All rise, all rise All rise, all rise When you need the law (all rise), the courts heed the call Justice for one (all rise) should mean it for all All rise (all rise), all rise (all rise), yeah
All rise, all rise All rise, all rise
We all need a legal solution [?] just look inside the constitution It says equal protection Under the law, so know what they are Real justice, you feel it? Oh, you can appeal it
All rise, all rise All rise, all rise The judge and the jury, the law provides Take to the court, let the court decide All rise, all rise
Make it work for you, that’s what it’s supposed to do Make it work for you (all rise, all rise) Make it work for you, that’s what it’s supposed to do Make it work for you (all rise, all rise)
