Why Cry Lyrics

{X2
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry

Nobody's crying out for justice
And everyone is crying out for peace
Mankind overstand please
A hungry man is a angry man
And the war will never cease

Malicious power struggle
Make the whole a dem a freeze

Hey you Mr. Scribe and Mr. Pharisees
Can you show some love and put your minds at ease
Dem a bow down to dem fame
Like a beast dem can't tame
And now you stand alone inna the rain

All over the world too much is too much
And I done been all over the globe
Hey yo you know enough is enough
Many families going to bed
Without a decent meal on the table
Babies crying with these swollen bellies
And they can't help themselves
They need the world to hear me
It's fucked up the population's mind shackled up
While some are mesmerized by a fucking pimp cup

With gazillionaire big time ballers

Everywhere in the world
Put five in the bum's cup
And I ain't trying to scapegoat the power structure
Cause the power structure's headed for destruction
Matter of fact yo it was built on destruction
I'm trying to look into the eyes of my brothers

Each one teach one we are all brothers
Get your weight up the situation ain't going nowhere
I can rhyme until I'm blue in the face
So when the world cares
{X2

Earth a run red out deh
Everyday another innocent dead out deh
More wickedness the whole a dem a spread out deh
And the ghetto youth a try and a try
And dem can't find no bread out deh
People upset out deh
Politician nowadays no show regret out deh
Cause things dem a do we should reject out deh
But instead out deh
Nobody never fling a stone after dem yet out deh

Yeah, we praise the spiritual vibe
That bring a state of unity
Mask the player haters out in the community
And global genocide's Babylon's commodity
While selfishness plagues the mind of humanity
With media and propaganda causing insanity
And self-indulgence tasting sweeter than candy
We got women plus the men hypnotized by vanity
Understand one race one family

You wanna be tender but you got to be tough
Because the food that you eat
Look like it not enough
And you want to be real but you got to be rough
And the whole town a pray for a blessing from above
Button and boot, botch and handcuff

Working for the system the good you a crush
And better you go cool and avoid the rush
Dem step on your toe and no even say hush
Boom boom boom boom
{X2

Nobody's crying out for justice
And everyone is crying out for peace
Mankind overstand please
A hungry man is a angry man
And the war will never cease

Malicious power struggle
Make the whole a dem a freeze

Hey you Mr. Scribe and Mr. Pharisees
Can you show some love and put your minds at ease
Dem a bow down to dem fame
Like a beast dem can't tame
And now you stand alone inna the rain
