What good are we
If we aren’t free
Constrained to these rules
Arbitrary rules created long before we were born
Made by people who served their own interest
So why follow such rules
When those who created them didn’t
Rules that were meant to incarcerate me with imaginary chains
My life no longer my own
Who does my freedom belong too
Corporations are the holders of the imaginary chains
We learn Algebra II in high school
But never learn finance or money
The very thing that makes our world turn
We are blind and uneducated
Our poverty is due in part to our miseducation
To be free doesn’t me out of real chains
But rather to be free from even the imaginary chains
Almost no man has freedom
Those who think we do, are wrong
They only look at their wrist for proof of chains
Work your 40 plus hours to pay for the very rules that take you freedom
Who lied to us
Freedom isn’t free and neither are we
