- Woes -

Woe unto you,
Flatters, sycophants
And hailers of our oppressors.
You're so engrossed in their
Deceits, rhetorics and gimmicks
Hence blind your eyes to the many evils
They rain upon you

Woe unto you,
Spin-doctors and
mouthpiece of our foes.
You load your bellies with
The crumbs they throw at you
Hence mount the podium,
Lie to us, and
Conceal the truth

Woe to you citizens,
For being at eased in your poverty
And lack
Comfortable in your ignorant
Hence,
Can't sight beyond your nose, and
Stand to redeem yourselves

Woe unto you,
Shepherds of the flock
For misleading your sheeps into
Dens of wolves
And into bottomless pit.
You proclaim and prophesies falsehood
To satisfy your greed and to fill your belly

Woe unto you,
Fourth estate of the realm
For being in bed with our foes
Choosing brown envelope over ethics
Throwing your craft to the dogs
Exchanging pens and mic with
Plates of porridge
You're a Judas incarnate

Woe unto you,
Men of the temple of justice
You collect fat envelopes and kickbacks
Twisting the law to please them,
Delivering judgement to suit their greeds.
You dish out justice to highest bidder
Making impunity to reign supreme
In the land

Except y'all turn a new leaf
Retract your steps, and
Embrace good deeds
The wrath and fury
About to be visited on you
Shall know no end!
