The father plays the master
The mother plays the slave
Children pay the piper
They suffer or behave

We came into town
To watch the ponies race
We spoke not a word
When a master whipped a slave

There was blood upon his back
He was trembling inside
We turned away from the terror and fright

When an open hand
Turns into a fist
Let me stand beside
The one who breaks the whip

Who do you serve
Do you serve yourself
Open your eyes and save someone else

I am not a master
You are not a slave
We are only human
We must not surrender
