The Slave In Us

you have been crawled by corrupted minds
its consuming the just from you
instead of following the lines
feelings aside
decided to beat your path
i conjectured your ways tonight
i’ll allow it to give you room
when the claiming arrives
the answer is duely right
if only we saw it
all today
oh read my rights and say
no it’s not our fault to pay
oh it’s our time to reign
oh the slave in us will prevail
i have been wanting to lead with you
i’ve been valued and asked to flee
they prefer telling lies
only to try
and shake up our make-believe
we’ve been hoping to win tonight
it’s conducive to learn our lives
they’ve been taking our hope
injecting it all with pride
so much not seen/if only we saw it all
oh read my rights and say
no it’s not our fault to pay
oh it’s our time to reign
oh the slave in us will prevail
