MASTER OR SLAVE

Who is the master And who the slave The one with the whip, the master be The one whipped, the slave you see The master, must clothe feed and protect The slave, merely work and collect Freedom, over rated commodity at best Only good, remembered at feast With equality, the burden is shared All equal, some more, in harvest bared Freedom, the choice of master to serve Never a freedom, more deserved Slaves to our elect, we’ve become Only riches and fortune, for some The slave, now a master by right Is everything, now alright?
