Enslaved-
You hate me because of the color of my skin You loath me so when will The Strife disappear
He wished me enslaved, this is how you behave
Some 300 years ago we were a tool an animal
Cannot articulate the hate
Never understood nor understand definition of a man Disparity never understood masses
Taken from their natural country
Of his birth have no elf worth
Kidnap bartered and enslaved my ancestors were
Kept captured raved
Slaves
