- you over in American Samoa, what...what surprised you the most?
- I guess hit me the most is the condition of the factory that the workers were in:
The factory was surrounded by a fence and barbed wire on top and on the bottom. And they have a chain-linked fence surround the whole factory and, and dormitory compound. The gate has a...has a shack, where the guard sit there and control the worker movement in and out of the.. of the factory
- The factory are made of ahm.. tin panels with tin roof. really hot. The temperature over there is verily ninety degrees and inside the factory or the dormitory it reaches way over a hundred degrees.

It's the contemporary form of slavery, they it slave labour
But they don't them 'cause it's how they make paper
When you rocking fly shit that's made in China
By an eight year old child tryna feed his
He exposed to contamination and
And only fifty-five percent of them get degrees
And the women to try to placate the boss
Because it's sex in the labour force
The slave master let them speak in sign language
And they're from lung disease and eye damage
fourteen hour shifts, seven days a
two shitty meals a day, little sleep
Human life worth three cents an hour
All human right loose sense of power
What did four years in the grave passes?
Only the cleverness of slave masters.

Is life living if you living in hell?
When the mind is to a prisoner's cell?
And the lies devise in the system that fail
But I the system to fail!
Is life worth living if you living in
When the is confined to a prisoner's cell?
And the lies devise in the system that fail
But I expect the to fail!

It's one point six people locked in jail
They do new slave labour force trapped in
They generate over a dollars worth to power
And only getting paid cents an hour
They make cloths for McDonald's and for Apple
And working fourteen hour shifts in factories
And we sit around debating who the wack emcee is
They have to work arthritic pain attack the knees
Slavery is not illegal, a fucking lie!
It is illegal, unless it's for of a crime
The main objective is to get you in your prime.
And keep the prison full and not give you a fucking
But they the real keeping you confined
For a crime but they give you two-to-nine
And nobody there to protect ya
Except a bunch of incompetent human rights

Is worth living if you living in hell?
When the mind is confined to a cell?
And the lies they in the system that fail
But I expect the to fail!
Is worth living if you living in hell?
the mind is confined to a prisoner's cell?
And the lies they devise in the system that
But I the system to fail!
