We aren’t angry enough
Like a wind on a sea which howls in the rough
We aren’t angry enough
To change our beings and to demand our growth
We aren’t angry enough
To seek returns from pleaders who turn leachers
We aren’t angry enough
We so aren’t angry enough
II
When our anger turns into fury
And our fury seeks its hurry
We will change our forms to blow storms
To break the deadly systems
…and grow better ones
For our storms to form to force development to conform
We will need self reforms
And act guard dogs around our treasures
None would be allowed to steal and feel praise worthy of fame
None would be allowed to be a nepot
And be at our leadership depot
None would be allowed to let in thieves
…through our auditing sieves
None would be allowed to play dirty politics
…with our coffers as tricks
None would be allowed to kill our national soul
Just to feed few families whole
For our storms will do the reforms
III
If we get angry enough
Those who kill to fill their lies!
Those who steal to feed their fies!
Those who chew and blow on sores!
Would be made to face the laws
If we’re angry enough
Those who bait to stake our state
Those who open our gates of fate
…to let in mates who loot to hit our pate
Will be easily driven out
If we get angry enough
If we really get angry enough
We’ll create blocks to fence our lot
And put locks on our treasure plot
…to let the real power
…oooh to let real and true powers
…rule

We aren’t angry enough! Jehovah God! help us by Thy power in us, to resist the oppressive rule, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Very apt, Mum CππΎππΎππΎ
Oh yes, we arenβt angry enough
To show the side of us thatβs rough,
So the top thieves have it smooth
To use the law to ease and soothe
Four more to do more greed work
Even when we all know its a murk
Still, we arenβt angry to spill hot magma
And show how we canβt take this dogma
Of legal entitlement to our futures today.
