Track 1
Reconstruct the poem by dragging each line into its correct position. Your goal is to reassemble the original poem as accurately as possible. As you move the lines, you'll see whether your arrangement is correct, helping you explore the poem's flow and meaning. You can also print out the jumbled poem to cut up and reassemble in the classroom. Either way, take your time, enjoy the process, and discover how the poet's words come together to create something truly beautiful.

About a trap that's got us locked in a cell
Student loans, credit cards, man, it kills
Debt is the slavery of the free
Educate yourself, make a plan, take control
Debt's the new shackles, that's the deal
They say money talks, but debt screams louder
Interest piling up, we can't break free
Freedom's just a word when you're owned by the bank
Working nine to five, still can't make ends meet
Gotta break these chains, before our spirits tank
Started with a dream, now we're drowning in bills
Got us chasing paper, feeling smaller and smaller
Debt is the slavery of the free
Chains made of credit, can't you see?
Trapped in a cycle, can't get off this street
'Cause true freedom starts when you free your soul
Debt is the slavery of the free
It ain't bars or chains, but it's just as real
But knowledge is power, time to break free
Yo, listen up, I got a story to tell
