Lyrics and translation Gregory Isaacs - Black a Kill Black

Black a Kill Black

Black against Black, Lord
But he got to bounce right back
Black against Black
But he got to bounce right back
Political violence covers the Earth
Men don′t know what life is really worth
While youths go selling themselves like whores
Robbing, raping and killing the poor
Me say Black against Black
But he got to bounce right back
But he got to bounce right back
Down here in the ghetto of the slum
We've been robbed of our rights and freedom
But I know that things have got to change
For Jah Jah get all men into his range
Black against Black, Lord
But he got to bounce right back
But he got to bounce right up
Down here in the ghetto of the slum
We′ve been robbed of our rights and freedom
But I know that things have got to change
For Jah Jah get all men into his range
Me say Black against Black
But he got to bounce right back
But he got to bounce right back
But he got to bounce back

Black against Black, Lord
But he got to bounce right back
Black against Black
But he got to bounce right back
Political violence covers the Earth
Men don't know what life is really worth
While youths go selling themselves like whores
Robbing, raping and killing the poor
Me say Black against Black
But he got to bounce right back
But he got to bounce right back
Down here in the ghetto of the slum
We've been robbed of our rights and freedom
But I know that things have got to change
For Jah Jah get all men into his range
Black against Black, Lord
But he got to bounce right back
But he got to bounce right up
Down here in the ghetto of the slum
We′ve been robbed of our rights and freedom
But I know that things have got to change
For Jah Jah get all men into his range
Me say Black against Black
But he got to bounce right back
But he got to bounce right back
But he got to bounce back

Noir contre Noir

Noir contre Noir, mon Dieu
Mais il doit rebondir
Noir contre Noir
Mais il doit rebondir
La violence politique couvre la Terre
Les hommes ne savent pas ce que la vie vaut vraiment
Alors que les jeunes se vendent comme des prostituées
Volent, violent et tuent les pauvres
Je dis Noir contre Noir
Mais il doit rebondir
Mais il doit rebondir
Ici, dans le ghetto des bidonvilles
On nous a volé nos droits et notre liberté
Mais je sais que les choses doivent changer
Car Jah Jah ramène tous les hommes à lui
Noir contre Noir, mon Dieu
Mais il doit rebondir
Mais il doit rebondir
Ici, dans le ghetto des bidonvilles
On nous a volé nos droits et notre liberté
Mais je sais que les choses doivent changer
Car Jah Jah ramène tous les hommes à lui
Je dis Noir contre Noir
Mais il doit rebondir
Mais il doit rebondir
Mais il doit rebondir

Noir contre Noir, mon Dieu
Mais il doit rebondir
Noir contre Noir
Mais il doit rebondir
La violence politique couvre la Terre
Les hommes ne savent pas ce que la vie vaut vraiment
Alors que les jeunes se vendent comme des prostituées
Volent, violent et tuent les pauvres
Je dis Noir contre Noir
Mais il doit rebondir
Mais il doit rebondir
Ici, dans le ghetto des bidonvilles
On nous a volé nos droits et notre liberté
Mais je sais que les choses doivent changer
Car Jah Jah ramène tous les hommes à lui
Noir contre Noir, mon Dieu
Mais il doit rebondir
Mais il doit rebondir
Ici, dans le ghetto des bidonvilles
On nous a volé nos droits et notre liberté
Mais je sais que les choses doivent changer
Car Jah Jah ramène tous les hommes à lui
Je dis Noir contre Noir
Mais il doit rebondir
Mais il doit rebondir
Mais il doit rebondir
