The Slave Masters Confession

For I have mocked the Lord

Made a Mockery of the word

Lies and deceit in this world 

I’m sure you all have heard 

Blood ,sweat , pain and tears 

For my mischief I unleashed throughout the years

Have lead some in this life to believe in  hope

A lot of us to our fears

For those that will never care

A lie you choose , but never to share 

The whips we used on women and men 

We seem too never have cared

We have brought the world to its knees

Lied to our children and poisoned the seas

For there is no more fruit that is beared from the trees

Will you my lord consider my plan

For I don’t know anymore ,who I am
