JoJo Bean - Eye For An Eye

This passage I read when I was young
And understanding was not my stronghold
Haunted me through many years
And still does today when told

An eye for an eye which when read
Leaves me thinking in today's life
Would there be anyone left able to see
Or would all be left blind with strife
