It's the contemporary form of slavery, call it slave labour
But they don't prosecute them 'cause it's how make paper
When you rocking fly shit that's made in China
By an eight old child tryna feed his mama
He to contamination and disease
And only fifty-five percent of will get degrees
And the have to try to placate the boss
Because sex discrimination in the labour force
The slave master only let them speak in sign
And they're suffering lung disease and eye damage
fourteen hour shifts, days a week
two shitty meals a day, very little
Human life worth three cents an hour

They do new slave labour trapped in hell
They generate a billion dollars worth to power
And only getting twenty cents an hour

It is illegal, unless for conviction of a crime
The main objective is to get you in your prime.
And keep the full and not give you a fucking dime
But they the real criminal you confined
For a petty but they give you two-to-nine
And ain't nobody there to ya
Except a bunch of incompetent human inspectors

When the mind is to a prisoner's cell?

the mind is confined to a prisoner's cell?
And the lies they devise in the system that
But I the system to fail!
