Story Behind The Song

This song comes from the experience of going through a lawsuit. I was right but they somehow were above the law.

Song Description

This is songs is about the liars, cheaters, and crooks who always seem to come out on top and above the law.

Lyrics

Verse 1:

I know what I heard
And I know what I've seen
You wear a white hat
But you're dirty and mean

Your rip and you tear
With your tooth and your claw
Sittin' there on your throne
High above the law.

Verse 2:

You slander my name
While you're stabbin' my back
You hit and you run
Then you cover your tracks

You use a shotgun
Cause you ain't no quickdraw
You just got to guarantee
That you're above the law

Chorus:

Above the law the air is sweeter
Above the law, for a prosperin' cheater
I hate to admit it, but it sticks in my craw
That you figured out how, to be above the law.

Verse 3:


Now you talk about justice
And you talk about rights
But when you're caught in the act
Then your rabid dog bites.


And buries the truth
With a swipe of her paw
So no one will know
That you're above the law

So You feed everyone
With your lies about me
And they gobble that fruit
From your poisonous tree


You can dance on my grave
While the black ravens caw
My ghost will whisper the truth
That you're above the law

(Chorus)
