Colonial state
Defiant slave
Sentenced to
Isolation
New master
Of the old world
Does not stand
Humiliation
Imperial act
The rebel slave
Now condemned to
Starvation
Poverty
200 years
Of sufferance
And deprivation
There is no escape
From this rotten state
And its puppet leaders
Turning yourself to God
Has led you nowhere
Futile magic spells
Is no escape from hell
Turning yourself to God
Deadens your despair
Futile magic spells
Hang on for dear life
Keep your faith
Live in dignity
As things are getting better
Suddenly the ground is collapsing
Instantly you are buried alive
Paralysed, you are broken in pieces
What was your shelter is now your tomb
Dehydrate
Suffocate
Forgotten
Hallucinate
Buried alive for 27 days
Ordeal to the body and the soul
Woken up to the hell where he belongs
A lesson in respect of misery
