Slavery the order of the day!
Women now slaves in their matrimonial homes,
Mother-in-law turns slave mistress,
Children psychological imprisoned.
Freedom an expensive right
Paying through the pipe to gain,
Daughters given for debt settlement.
Parents mortgage the happiness of their children,
Just to rob shoulders,
Subjects are caged by their rulers,
The led enslaved by their leaders.
Enslavement
