In Many Countries

In many Countries in the World today
Many good people in prison for a long stay
People lawfully not guilty of any crime
At the pleasure of the Government locked up for no given set of time

Many Government leaders nowadays are sadly lacking in ruth
And that any good person is not in prison is of course an untruth
For political or some other reason or whatever may be
Some people for years in prison not knowing when they will be set free

Good people in prison does seem all wrong
Sad to think that justice to everyone does not belong
In a World where oppression and injustices in Many Countries rife
People in prison for their words or wanting a better life

Or exposing Government corruption behind prison bars locked away
For speaking out against fraudulent legislators this the price some do pay
Good people in prison you may say this cannot be
But this is the case for many a refugee.
