Marks of a Slave

We're all born defined by our cultures

Set loose to be caught

And stripped of our thoughts

Another possession of monsters

Worked to the core

To feel safe and secure in our walls

I've been

Bound and silenced by deceivers and liars

My cut of your profit is minimum wage

I'll push aside my urge for defiance

The burns on my arms are the marks of a slave

I still dig myself up every morning

Clock my body in

We're all born defined by our cultures

Set loose to be caught

And stripped of our thoughts

Another possession of monsters

Worked to the core

To feel safe and secure in our walls

Safe and secure in our walls

I'm serving my sentence but get no release

I've been chasing paper since my early teens

My minds set I'll take my chances and leave

My appetite for life won't be run by greed

Convinced that you own me

Locked my mind in my body

I'm nobodies trophy

I Know I'm not perfect but I hold my own

We're all born defined by our cultures

Set loose to be caught

And stripped of our thoughts

Another possession of monsters

Worked to the core

To feel safe and secure in our walls

Clock my body in

We're all born defined by our cultures

Set loose to be caught

And stripped of our thoughts

Another possession of monsters

Worked to the core

To feel safe and secure in our walls

The burns on my arms are the marks of a slave
