\n
From morning till evening<\/div>\n
We slog to make living<\/div>\n
From night to dawn<\/div>\n
We spend time Dreaming<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Hope is the word we rely on<\/div>\n
Time is what we con<\/div>\n
Everyday & every night<\/div>\n
We try to gather our might<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Still we are someone’s slave<\/div>\n
Though we try to be brave<\/div>\n
Knowing that we end in grave<\/div>\n
We still try our best to be brave<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We serve for family<\/div>\n
But, that’s not our slavery<\/div>\n
We serve in our community<\/div>\n
But that doesn’t bring the calamity<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Still we are born to be slave<\/div>\n
Slave to those who make matters grave<\/div>\n
Those who rule the way we think<\/div>\n
Those who rule the way we wink<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are slaves to the Politicians<\/div>\n
We are slave to the Mathematicians<\/div>\n
We are slave of these abnormals<\/div>\n
Who tend to show they solve our problems<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Media is another one to enslave us<\/div>\n
They serve their poison to us<\/div>\n
Yet we think we are independent<\/div>\n
Though we wear their thought pendant<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are independent only in our thoughts<\/div>\n
Yet our life is a symbol of slavery<\/div>\n
Slaves is what we would be<\/div>\n
Till we decide to break the boundary!!!<\/div>\n
