Eagles Among Vultures

Yes, I
I see eagles among vultures
And I
I am an eagle among vultures
Yes, I lead off the fight
As an eagle among vultures
But I survive
Yes, I am drifting, I am swaying to and fro
As I pay the price
For all this dissolution
But I never lost my compass
Purposeful, I stand upright
Rectitude against all odds
And strong my will to sacrifice
But a steady object of damnation
There are untold fights within me
And my fair rage tries to break free
Alienation and unrest are my constant company
It is a million of them versus a thousand like me
I am an eagle among vultures
Yes, I know
It is a million of them
Versus a thousand like me
There’s just no deference towards the needy and the weak
I see misuse of power, I feel regard declining
A community so disunited and corrupted
Only fist law will prevail
Still there are untold fights within me
And my fair rage tries to break free
It took so many tries and setbacks to see
It is a million of them versus a thousand like me
Yes, I
I see eagles among vultures
And I
I am an eagle among vultures
But I survive
I take this strife
I hear them talk like masters
Not like servants
I see them guard the palace
Not the shacks
There are untold fights within me
For all one is worth, pushing the law towards equality
And always wary to not fall between the cracks
It is a million of them versus a thousand like me
