Crumbs from hands that bind you,
Deceit from THE MAN who blinds you…
Living in modern day slave quarters,
Drowning in despair’s murky waters…
Numbing the pain, you turn to drugs,
Angry and sick, surrounded by thugs…
You’re free…
Stating, “All you have to do is
Keep voting for me!”
Government walls too steep to climb,
You settle for scraps they throw,
To sustain life…
Liars and thieves at the head of the pack,
Unapologetically stab you in the back…
This vicious cycle will never stop,
Till you break your invisible chains
And scream, “I’VE HAD ENOUGH!”
