Y ou in your fancy

Material world

Don't see the links of chain

Binding bloo d

O ur own ancestors

Are hungry ghosts

Closets so full of bones

They won't close

Ca ll it upward mobility

But you've be en sold down the ri ver

Just another form of slavery

And the wh ole man-made white world

Is your master

Y ou in your fancy

Material world

Create in your own image

A supreme god

Y our virgin mary

Your holy ghosts

Claimed to be pure of heart

Have hands that are stained with blo od

Ca ll it upward mobility

But you've be en sold down the ri ver

Just another form of slavery

And the wh ole man-made white world

Is your master

Y ou in your fancy

Material world

Don't see the links of chain

Bind ing

O ur own ancestors

Are hungry ghosts

Closets so full of bones

They won't close

Ca ll it upward mobility

But you've be en sold down the ri ver

Just another form of slavery

And the wh ole man-made white world

Is your master

Y ou in your fancy

Material world

Don't see the links of chain

Bind ing
