I walk a free man.
I am not to be told of my sins,
By a man who lives in chains.
The cane that leads the shepherd,
Was shown by the prophet,
To be a serpent.
Together, the "free willed" oppress me.
While I stand alone against,
This heavy onslaught.
They were given life,
And they waste it on themselves.
Sharing only their enthusiasm,
For my oppression.

I walk a free man.
I am not to be told of my sins,
By a man who lives in chains.
The cane that leads the shepherd,
Was shown by the prophet,
To be a serpent.
Together, the "free willed" oppress me.
While I stand alone against,
This heavy onslaught.
They were given life,
And they waste it on themselves.
Sharing only their enthusiasm,
For my oppression.
