Thirty-Years of Bondage

It’s been thirty-years of bondage 
I started working in my prime
I was strong at a tender age
Ready to give my best with time .

Work my heart out  without delay
Truth I bear makes my life decay
My boss loves me for been punctual
My foes believe pride is actual .

Started thirty-years of bondage
Working in my prime, it’s been long
I was strong at my best with time
At tender age, ~ready to give

I forgot to build for future 
Now, my base has default structure .
