From the song

All Those Corrupt Institutions by SNX

Protest rap. They wrote the rules for themselves and called it the system; they closed the doors and called it duty. They speak of justice and are the first to break it, raise the flag of truth and are the first to destroy it. The institution told him to sit and follow the rules; he said he builds, and their rules were written to protect the top while the people pay. He has seen the manager sign a deal that serves nobody, and the law bend to money and numbers. The poor pay the tax, the rich find the loophole. A chair corrupts its owner when he has no conscience. They built achievements out of people's tears. He is bigger than their system and stronger than their chains. The English verse adds the same picture: gates and opportunities, keys handed only to their own, handshakes over deals, profit from the poison, and a people still waiting in line.

Deeper meaning

Civic anger aimed at institutions in general, with no named target.
