Answer:
Is it enough?
They dragged us from home
Tied and fastened
Most of us fainted along the way
But that was not enough.
Suppressed and oppressed us
Offended and multiplied
We were denied our language, our religion and our freedom
But that was not enough.
They have enriched our expense
They built great empires, commerce and prisperity
We are left with only prejudice, racism and aggression
But that was not enough.
We are still rejected today
Our descendants have a false freedom
They reap the fruits of imposition, colonialism, violence and domination
And that is still not enough.
