“Abortion is a Crime” by Alpha Blondy #reggae

A few years ago, I posted Nthsenge’s song by this same name. Today’s reggae-licious commentary on abortion comes from Alpha Blondy:

Abortion is a Crime
by Alpha Blondy

Abortion is a crime.
Abortion a crime.
Abortion is a bloody, bloody crime
Abortion is crime.

Every human being has the right to the sun,
And there’s enough place under Jah Jah sun!
And I want you to know now, my, my friend.
Yes, I want you to know now, my, my good friend.
Yes, a fetus is alive…
Don’t make them cry, cry, cry from their mother’s womb.
Why should they pay for the sins they haven’t done.
Feel, you got to think
Jah say don’t let the children cry
Feel, you got to feel
Jah say don’t let his children cry.

Abortion is crime.
Abortion is crime.
Abortion is a bloody, bloody crime.
Abortion is crime.

Don’t blame the woman, blame society.
Don’t you blame the woman,
You got to blame the system yo.
Give the women everything they need.
Cause no children, no future, no human race,
No children, no future, no race, no race, no race at all.

Abortion is a crime.
Abortion a crime.
Abortion is a mighty, mighty crime!
Abortion a crime.

It’s a crime!
It’s a crime!
It’s a serious crime! [x4]

It’s a crime!
It’s a serious crime!
