A Slave Country

Slaves has limitations 
In their thinking and actions 
Their life is full of 
Poverty and illiteracy 
They don't have a reason of life 
So they cherish vanity 
They don't know their right 
So do not know the cause to fight 
They see nothing wrong 
Even though they are into 
Oppression and affliction 
They see themselves inferior 
And see others to be superior 
So they don't have respect 
For their own kind 
They search all their life 
And there is nothing to find 
They rely on others for feed 
For they can not satisfy their need 
They work all their life 
Without gaining nothing 
For they think 
They will die and go to heaven
