Shackled

Chains Chains Chains Chains Call for a need of change Born free Every child learns how to wear the manacles How to chain their minds to someone else's paradigm How to live with bent backs Burdened with the weight of society Told they are important Yet easily forgotten in the masses Learning to live with invisible scars Taught from the home how to bear the whip Taught by the world how to bear the whip How to inflict control How to use pain towards personal gain How to yank the chains They yank the chains... 55 percent of all American students gain a college degree Less than 55 Percent realize they wear chains Less then that attempt to take them off Less then that succeed Less then that help to free others The rest remain within the gang Keep living chain to chain Keep living chain to chain
