I Don'T Believe In Slavery

I Don't Believe in Slavery By Franklin Price 07/01/2020 I don't believe in slavery of any class or creed. Slavery most always comes from power and from greed. When the rich don't have the riches, to control what they survey, They oft resort to slavery, as they did back in the day. The ones who built the pyramids and most the wonders of this earth The powerful said they did it, but enslavement gave them birth. Not so much has changed today, the rich and powerful control. They take advantage of the lower class and their methods take a toll When profit margins start to sag, the workers are first hit No way the rich should suffer, no not even just a bit Send the work to foreign nations where their dollar is our dime Sounds like slavery to me, for the rich it's not a crime To put our own on welfare doesn't cost the rich a cent. For the taxes that they pay, doesn't even make a dent. The middle class will pay for it, that's the way that it should be It's time we stood up for ourselves, and threw the tea into the sea I don't know many of the rich, who have made it on their own, Except for some who bet on stocks, or won the lottery alone. Most on the backs of others, while staying out of touch Not paying out a living wage; Is that Slavery?; not so much. At least that's the way they see it, yes I'm speaking of the rich And our government who helps them, now isn't life a . Who do you think finances them, these leaders of the land. If you think the ones on welfare, then you just don't understand. The longer they are on the hill, the richer they become. Enslaved there by the richest, they've forgotten where they're from They think they are the royalty, ones who control the land. We must oust them in November. It's time the people took a stand. We're supposed to be the government, instead we're just its slaves If we don't stand up to Washington, we'll take enslavement to our graves We've got to pull together, red and yellow, black and white Rid ourselves tyranny, put some new blood in the fight I hope it's not too late for us, and this country that we love The statues and the monuments, remnants of much push and shove. Our way of life's not easy, we must retain the peoples' power. What happens in November could be our worst or finest hour.
