It No Pretty Lyrics

It no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear

Dem blinded by society
And now dem can't see the quality
Me see dem limited capacity
Verbal verbosity
And dem ignorant atrocity
Can't you see it's right there

So tell me what a cause so much damn poverty
Tell me why the people dem a lose gravity
It caused by a handful of minority
Who try to pull down the majority

Well this is up to you and me
Make we sit down and talk bout long drivity
Sit down and reason conscious livity
Our natural ability
Give thanks for diversity

It no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear

It no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear

Somebody tell me what is happening out there
Same old story even though it s a new year
People die every day see dem cry every day
What a burden to bear, yeah

Me see how you a trick we with your politics of fear
No matter what you do dem always try to smear
And you dem want blame leave you standing in the rain
And I wonder if you hear

So tell me what a cause so much damn poverty
Tell me why the people dem a lose gravity
It caused by a handful of minority
Who a try to pull down the majority

It no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear
No way, yeah

It no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear, yeah

It no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear
No way
