I guess it was better than the alternative
Plenty wanted more than us
Always a roof, always food to eat
Plenty of dogma-stained love
'Cause the yoke was so heavy
Yeah, the yoke was so
Three months away, saving savages
A dozen white-bought memories
I gave them my youth, made some lifelong friends
Who no longer acknowledge me
'Cause the yoke was so heavy
Yeah, the yoke was so
Out on my own, signing lease agreements
Flexing my agency
Wondering how I would fail without
The invisible man guiding me
'Cause the yoke was so heavy
Yeah, the yoke was so
Yeah, the yoke was so heavy
Yeah, the yoke was so
