Oh Friend, can you see?
Born 1946, M, from PA, United StatesOh friend can you see
By today's gaudy light,
that the slaves are not free,
as we masters are scheming?
That their days are not bright.
That they weep through the nights.
That their bodies are scarred
As we masters are beaming?
How we whip them with flair?
How at hell, we force them to stare!
And tell them that Christ,
For their souls does not care?
Pray tell, can those black bloodied
Backs labor through yet another dayyyyyyy?
In this land, God forged for meeeee!
and for slaves for their graves?
