Obama let our torturers walk free
although he grants that what they did's a crime
pretending not to hear and not to see
a reason that they ought to serve hard time
the Rule of Law aspires to being blind
the perpetrator's class should count for naught
but when they're of the CIA's own kind
the verdicts been already sealed and bought
who really cares, as long as they're not Whites
who scream and die in U.S. custody
utopian delusions grant them rights
as if they were the same as you and me
Obama's legacy's in disarray
while Truth's held hostage by our CIA
