Lyrics are as follows:

Traped in a wheelchair since he was four,
The life of poster boy has needlessly run cold.
John, paralyzed below the chin,
got death sentence for his medicine.

Over ganja, hauled up before the law,
Ten days in jail! Judge hammered with claw.
his death had come because of flawed law,
this is the justice america saw,
Up under jailhouse he would be sent,
Gasping for air, his time would be spent.

Chorus

Jonathan my hearts sorry.. (if you ain't you don't have one)
We'll fight justice for your tragedy... (if you don't then you know none)

Go tell a mother you've killed her son..
A casualty in war that cannot be won.
Police is saying we didn't kill poor john..
it was the ganja that posisoned her son..
but washington said that ganja was ok.
then federal came and blocked what they said..
let freedom ring.. let freedom ring..


Slowly drowning in a mucus mess
now that he's dead lets call the war a success
what about jailing for a blunt of weed?
Did punishment meet some social need?

Chorus

Jonathan my hearts sorry.. (if you're not you don't have one)
We'll fight justice for your tragedy... (if you don't then you know none)

When Jonathan smoked ganja to feel right,
He puffed away the safest drug in sight.
That one bud that could heal a hurtin' man,
because of law would leave him a dead man.
a dumb sentence of ten days in jail.
Then Justice, compassion, and human kindness fail.

Burying your child is the hardest thing to do
death caused by government through,
these earthly chains, from which John has been set free,
is this the world we want for him, or you and me?

Chorus
Jonathan my hearts sorry.. (if you're not you don't have one)
We'll fight justice for your tragedy... (if you don't then you know none)
