A Merciless Lord
from “Slavery” - SATB a cappella - Original text - English - Medium
“I am a slave, bound by chains,
Of a system, that never wanes.
Its hold on me, a firm restraint,
Money, I serve and taint.
No more dreams, of freedom's call,
A chance to break, from the Master's thrall.
Our daily labor, toil and frown,
So we can earn and keep its pride.
Money is a merciless Lord, we all bow down,
Its commands we must abide.
Money is a merciless Lord.”
