[Lyric] The Storm (Ruckus Aquinas)

Please unclutch your pearls
As you survey the damage and the mess
And if this makes you hurt
Think of all the pleas you ignored before this
Don’t blame the fires of rage
When your silence fanned the flames

There’s no point in getting angry at the storm
Cause a storm is here and then it’s gone
Whether caused by climate change
Or by injustice of race
The reasons for the storm still carry on

Riots are the language of the unheard
How lucky if you’ve not become fluent
If you want to hear another tongue - listen and learn
Even when it’s not words you expect
Direct all your complaints
Towards complacency towards other’s pain

There’s no point in getting angry at the storm
Cause a storm is here and then it’s gone
Whether it consists of rain
Or is made of a mother’s pain
The reasons for the storm still linger on
There’s no point in getting angry at the storm
Cause a storm is here and then it’s gone
When you do not try to change
What made the storm so devastating
The reasons for the storm still linger on
The reasons for the storm are what must stop
