Cartel`s Punishment.
Born in captivity.
Raised in poverty.
Driven to slavery.
The masters of depravity.
Tied to the chair.
Electrodes in my hair.
Flick of the switch.
Hair burnt to a frisk.
Blowtorch to the balls.
Sound of the chainsaw.
What made them a man.
He holds in his hand.
Pliers reaching deep.
To the roots of the teeth.
Pulled out one by one.
Left with bleeding gums.
Arms tied to the legs.
Plastic bag over their head.
Locked in airtight room.
Left until your dead.
Nails through the hands.
You’ve become hanging man.
Nails through the feet.
Till information you release.
Nails off leaving the nerves raw.
No more need for a manicure.
Fingers cut off one by one.
Leaving you just your thumbs.
Hot poker from the outside.
Burning you on the inside.
Sprayed in scalding water.
Wired to the electric metre.
Baseball swing on your head.
Cigarette burns to your legs.
The cracking of your bones.
The message is driven home.
All this punishment is of no benefit to you.
You are aware of what they are about to do.
Eventually they will decapitate your head.
Then leave you hanging from a city bridge.
Message from the cartel to the community.
That no one is free or has whole immunity.
Follow the rules that in stone are firmly set.
Or you and your whole family will all be next.
