Religion, sex, alcohol, drugs, and power
You call yourself a man but really you’re just a coward.
You’re broken, you’re under control and you’re hopeless.
You’re just slaves to different pleasures, you’re spiritually homeless.
You say racism is over, and you say slavery is dead.
But I say slavery only took a different form instead.
You’re so fond of oppression finally ending in the USA.
But each and every one of us is a slave to a possession, and we pretend we’re okay.
You began to ignore the creator and instead idolize the created.
And just cause someone’s rich, he thinks he actually made it.
People chase after sex and people chase after wealth.
Not realizing they’re slaves, and they can never escape death.
You’re a slave of porn when you’re 12, and you worship the altar of school at sixteen.
And you think you’re free but when a picture of a naked girl pops up, you’re just a slave to your screen.
Strip clubs, malls, pubs, stadiums, all acting like modern day temples
And you act like you’re self-sufficient so you make yourself central
You give in to the world’s pleasures and you forget your true purpose in life.
And while becoming famous, you’re really just a slave to that knife.
You neglect God and instead you become a spiritual whore.
And you convince yourself you’ll be satisfied by having a little more.
You’re a slave to your idol, whether its money, power, or fame.
You’re under the influence of an indulgence, which is why all humans are the same.
You’re a slave to alcohol because you can’t manage to get sober.
And before you know it you’re dead and everything’s over.
And when you’re a slave to liquor you’re no longer a man
You’re under control and you’re merely just a part of Satan’s plan.
You’re a slave to your boyfriend whom you’re trying so hard to please.
You’re still his slave when he dumps you and he leaves you hanging with ease.
You’re a slave to women at college, and all you care about is having sex.
You stop treating girls the way they should be treated and you care more about which girl is next.
You’re a slave to your parents as you’re always worried of dissatisfaction
And you begin to care so much about what they think that you lose your compassion
You’re a slave to your favorite singer who you imitate and copy like you’re pleading
And when you become a spitting image of him, you convince yourself your life has meaning
You’re a slave of religion where you base your whole life around a Holy book
To the point where you care less about loving God and you care more about your religious outlook
You’ve been a slave since you were born, cause you were born with bad intention
You’re a puppet in control and you’re a slave to your future pension
You get married, and you’re a slave to your job and your wife’s a slave to you
You seem unhappy and displeased; just do what everyone seems to do
Have little trophy kids and buy them a little trophy toy
As if enslaving them like you’re enslaved would bring you any joy
Compared to heaven, life is a pit stop on your way to achieve salvation
Don’t enslave yourself in an unworthy pleasure and instead have determination
You care so much about peoples’ thoughts, and you’re a slave to what they think
You keep bottling up your emotions until one day you’ll burst into the depression you hid
You ignore the gifts God gave you, and instead focus on pleasures God forbid
And it’s amazing cause no matter how much you sin God can always forgive
God is loving and empathetic; therefore you should never wallow in your sin.
And the beauty is when you trust in God, you’re included with Him.
You try so hard to have meaning and you try everything to win the game.
But there’s only one pleasure we should be enslaved to, and God is its name.
