Testament of Investment
Men licensed to kill with impunity
Will habitually go on killing sprees
Feeling like they've got immunity
Evading justice as if it's a disease
Cries and pleas won't change this
So resist that type of mentality
Only with unity, symbolically a raised fist
Will visually make them see their mortality
Casualty for casualty is the reality of war
An eye for an eye decried the Old Testament
At some point we must even the score
Building your arsenal is a good investment
Will habitually go on killing sprees
Feeling like they've got immunity
Evading justice as if it's a disease
Cries and pleas won't change this
So resist that type of mentality
Only with unity, symbolically a raised fist
Will visually make them see their mortality
Casualty for casualty is the reality of war
An eye for an eye decried the Old Testament
At some point we must even the score
Building your arsenal is a good investment

If non whites will not be treated well by whites, then non whites should return the favor

Yo, great use of rhyme, Damon.
"Feeling like they've got immunity
Evading justice as if it's a disease"
I think this would read better by emphasizing the contrast of what you already have to work with.
"Feeling like they've got immunity
Evading justice when they are the disease"

Thanks JB for the feedback and suggestion. I'll go over it in my head a bit then decide if I want to make that change.
