Slavery Cave

I am a slave
Inside my cave
I am the master
Inside my soul 
What I define	
It is said the freedom
I am free
Governed by myself

Who is that myself
I wanted to know
When I felt that I am a slave
In my cave

I am not a master
Now I found
Master is you
I am ruled

Who is that master
Inside my cave lives
Planting slavery seeds
In my feeling
