Oh, in this modern world, you constantly amazed of the things you see.
Where you have a choice to remain free?
A slave had less rights to decide their choice.
Compared today, when the choice is yours.

Beaten, whipped and shipped.
Mainly, what many males' slaves only knew.
And in this modern generation many just joining the prison crew.

Why get upset?
If your committed crime made you apart of the system.
You are essentially a state own slave by your choice.
Get not upset by the treatment you face.

Remember, the slaves had it worst.
They have no programs for rehabilitation.
And in truth, that comes from within.
In modern times, folks blame in on various non-existence programs.

Cry and gripe behind the walls.
When many don't get their way.
Without thinking with truth.
You decided to become a prison slave by the crime you committed.
So, don't get upset, when stated to get out of your feelings.
