Animal

We’re told when we can eat,
We’re told when we can sleep,
We’re treated like animals,
We’re treated like the sheep.

No one really cares,
As long as it’s not them,
Prisons treat us like animals,
Instead of grown-up men.

They open our doors to chow,
We race for it like cattle,
They may have won this round,
But they haven’t won the battle.

We all must stay strong,
Surrender is not a choice,
We will rise up,
We will use our voice!

So let’s be animals,
But not the one’s they think,
Roar like lions,
Let them know their policies stink.

Don’t give up,
Don’t be blue,
Cause’ even though we prisoners,
We’re humans too.
