I’m authorized to take your life.
Don’t ask who authorized me.
Suffice to say, I have the authority.
It’s enough that I proclaim I’m authorized.
look around
Why ask to be spared?
Is this life worth living?
Here I am. Consider me, the reaper man.
It’ll help you accept, that I’m authorized.
The eyeless men gave me a gun,
sent me on my way.
Called out to me 'you’re the reaper man'.
Authorized to kill anyone and you are anyone.
You need to know how I got authorized.
Easy - the elected men decreed it.
We won’t question their authority,
even though, we elect them.
Shall we ever truly know these men
when they are in authority?
