Fates - Richie Havens

He has religion with no compassion

To make decisions a very passion

He’s got his yacht, he’s got his mansions

He’s got his servants, he’s got expansion

They keep on talking, they’re all so proud

They keep us walking, they scream so loud

They only value their only crown

Hey yeah, slavery

He’s got his factories, he’s got his slaves

He’s got his prophets, he owns our cave

He has his prisons, he has his cage

He’s has his judges, they have our fate

They divide nations, they preach the heart

Self manipulation right from the start

They give permission, others do their part

Oh hey, slavery

He’s got his cars, he’s got his books

He knows it’s urgent, the poor are hook

He’s got his weakness, we got his number

And we will be there next time he plunders

I’m gonna tell you one by one

Everybody here is on the run

I’m gonna tell you, you got to know

No, hey yeah, it’s all slavery, slavery

It’s all slavery
