I think it's about selling your belives, opinions and culture for what you think will be a better life. But the morale is that you we're better of before.

"We came down from the north
Blue hands and a torch"
From Sweden/Scandinavia, norse/viking. Cold and dark winters.
"Red wine and food for free
A possibility"
Applying that you could get it, if you only did...
"We share our mothers' health
It is what we've been dealt"
We're born into poverty, riches, culture etc. We share the same faith as our parents.
"What's in it for me?
Fine

Say you need it
When you don't"
You're stuck with the deal you made, and your new master is controling you. But you're having regrets.
