Brazil

I work all day out in the sun My back is breaking hot Brazilian sun And all night I dream underneath the moon I watch the stars spin around Around this room And in the morning I watch the sunrise Alone but with intent without compromise My master's so mean he yells so loud His black whip strikes me it draws a crowd Humiliation is the price I pay Once the seed of hate has been planted It never goes away And in the evening I watch the flames rise In mind but slowly they come to life When I came across the sea that day In hopes of finding pay I never had dreamed of the traps love could lay for me This evil sent me it's on my back My eyes were closed to this attack This love has gripped me around the neck My purse has become a hangman's check And in the dark night I light the fire My master sleeps so still So dark and vile I work all day out in the sun My back is breaking hot Brazilian sun And all night I dream underneath the moon I watch the stars spin around Around this room
