It’s Been a Long Time
Since the dawn of time,
the masters have reigned.
Men of might, and reknown.
Men of money, power and demons.
Humanity has been enslaved,
since the days of Adam.
The Workers in every land,
around this fallen world live,
by the sweat of their brow.
But, along came the rulers, the kings,
the conquerors, bosses and priests,
with soldiers afraid and well paid,
to take control of the working man.
With money, force, debt, threats
fear, division, diversion, and every trick,
they used to control the slaves.
Even today.
Rules, unwritten,
about how we should behave.
All the “Yes, Massah! Don’t Beat Me Massah!”
became “Yes, sir, please don’t fire me sir.”
The laws change,
and the lovers of money change with it.
Dragging freedom down.
“There is nothing new,
under the sun”
Nothing has changed,
The Bosses still rule.
The King of Babel,
is still on his throne.
It will change,
when they crumble to dust.
And weep,
when their money,
and souls are lost.
