Un Jour de Paix

A Day of Peace

If peace could embrace this world just for a day
A truce, a break so we know what we're running after
Do we still know what love means?
I'm afraid not, God shows us every day
The planet is turning upside down, it scares me
Do you see the flames of hell, brothers and sisters?
Don't sell your souls to him

I would like to say that the keys to happiness are not found in banknotes
To see all these people liberated from the fear that haunts them
Who love life but it has given them a deadly kiss
A few rhymes that you can compare to the tears of the sun
A day of peace, as long as there are men and women who love each other
My heart is not a remote control
We all want a present woman, even in the turmoil
Each one returns home, like the trenches
Your skin color can make you a stranger
Do you find that normal? I feel at home anywhere
Citizen of the world with few means but at least free
Deep down, I struggle to understand
When I see these poorly dressed, poorly fed kids, victims of abuse
Vitry, my living environment eaten away by love trafficking drop by drop
Like humanitarian aid for Africa
In the heart of the fire, it's not enough to start the day right
Cross the flames brave and courageous like a firefighter

If peace could embrace this world just for a day
A truce, a break so we know what we're running after
Do we still know what love means?
I'm afraid not, God shows us every day
The planet is turning upside down, it scares me
Do you see the flames of hell, brothers and sisters?
Don't sell your souls to him

How to remain insensitive?
Violence overflows, is it possible to change the attitude of human beings?
How to remain insensitive?
A miserable life in a miserable neighborhood but for the time being as long as it's possible
Blacko
As a Rasta man, I fight my battle
I call it love but for the devil I have some ton-ba blows
I won't give up, no I won't give up
I will believe in it wholeheartedly even when my heart stops
A day of peace for our sons
A day of peace for our daughters
A day without everything going wrong
A day without tears, without hatred, without fear, without pain
A day when the Babylon system falls

I'm a human being like everyone else
I stop at sensitive things
You know that even with time the most rebellious ones calm down
I want to see joy instead of hatred in people's eyes
I feel sad when I watch the news and see what's happening on our continent
I live where days blend into nights
Where we also give little chances to the most deprived
To orphans who find love in a secondary home
From their childhood, rocked by the anger of a father
All our values are drained in the ones
Urban violence among our own
Dream of a land without discrimination, without conflicts
Extend a hand to those in solitude
Like that little paralyzed boy on a bed, showing that happiness is a second breath
There are people who suffer, and they're not pretending
For all countries at war, I wave the white flag
Lower your weapons, dry your tears for a day of peace is now

If peace could embrace this world just for a day
A truce, a break so we know what we're running after
Do we still know what love means?
I'm afraid not, God shows us every day
The planet is turning upside down, it scares me
Do you see the flames of hell, brothers and sisters?
Don't sell your souls to him

How to remain insensitive?
Violence overflows, is it possible to change the attitude of human beings?
How to remain insensitive?
A miserable life in a miserable neighborhood but for the time being as long as it's possible

Oh oh oh yeah
113, Blacko
9-4, 9-5
Gotcha music
Yeah
How do you want the earth to turn the right way
If our brains are upside down, man?
Reaction, reaction!
