Privilege Blinds

Privilege blinds 
All the time we live
How does it affect our mind
All the time we live 
What do we do right or wrong
All the the time we live 
What do we offer to life 
If life is to be a privilege 
Why do we have the poor

Privilege blinds 
I have been on this road 
This road of life I live 
As every new day 
I see i lay a blessing 
For when it dark 
While am at sleep 
What is around me is a lost 
Yet not till morning 
The time am a awake 
Oh awake sweet awake
What a great privilege 
A natural one 

Privilege blinds 
Abuse of nature 
Is not forgotten 
In our generation today 
A system of trends 
Trends of the fittest 
The fittest are called the richest 
The richest with their contacts 
This is the modern so called 
Privilege ones nowadays

Privilege blinds 
Who is privilege let him see
Who is privilege and blind 
Need a rewake 
I had a great writer say 
Privilege blinds 
Yes but only the ignorant heart
privilege is natural 
And it depend on one 
To put it on it right part 
Or let it put him blind
