Testo Why Cry - Afu-Ra & Gentleman
Testo della canzone Why Cry (Afu-Ra & Gentleman), tratta dall'album State of the Arts
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Nobody's cryin' out for justice
And everyone is cryin' 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
Ayo, you know enough is enough
Many families goin' to bed without a decent meal on the table
Babies cryin' 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 fuckin' pimp cup
With gazillionaire big time ballers
Everywhere in the world, put five in a bum's cup
And I ain't tryin' to scapegoat the power structure
'Cause the power structure's headed for destruction
Matter of fact yo, it was built on destruction
I'm tryin' to look into the eyes of my brothers
Each one teach one, we are all brothers
Get your weight up, the situation ain't goin' nowhere
I can rhyme until I'm blue in the face, so when the world cares
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
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 nah 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
We praise the spiritual vibe that bring the state of unity
Master playa haters out in the community
And global genocide's Babylon's commodity
While selfishness plagues the mind of humanity
With media and propaganda causin' insanity
And self-indulgence tastin' 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
Workin' for the system, the good you a crush
And better you go cool and avoid the rush
Dem step pon yuh toe and nuh even say hush
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Tell me why, why you wanna cry
Nobody's cryin' out for justice
And everyone is cryin' out for peace
Mankind overstand please
A hungry man is a angry man
So 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
Now you stand alone inna the rain
