Tracy Chapman - Material World

You in your fancy
Material world
Don`t see the links of chain
Binding blood
Our own ancestors
Are hungry ghosts
Closets so full of bones
They won`t close
Call it upward mobility
But you`ve been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery
And the whole man-made white world
Is your master
You in your fancy
Material world
Create in your own image
A supreme god
Your virgin mary
Your holy ghosts
Claimed to be pure of heart
Have hands that are stained with blood
You in your fancy
Material world
Don`t see the links of chain
Binding
