Die deutschen Old school Heavy und Speed Metal Crew VENDETTA, deren ersten Alben bereits in den 80ern erschienen, haben für ihren neuen Heavy Song und Titeltrack `Black As Coal` ein Lyricvideo online gestellt. Die Kultband verweist damit auf ihr erstes Album nach sechs Jahren der musikalischen Abstinenz.
Sänger Mario Vogel sagt:
„This song is about the ills of society: money is used for nonsense and not for important things; videos are taken when someone is beaten, hurt or killed, etc.“

Lyrics:
We got the force in the world to destroy discrimination
We got the force to make the ghettos die
No need to rip off or kill another nation
And who says that’s not true, is a liar
There’s so much wealth in the world
So much death and hunger
There’s cash for the diet of a fat dog
Our big-shot sisters got problems with their lipsticks
The hobo’s glad to find some old pork
My child, should I tell you this is right
Or teach you to crush it in a fight?
I can’t tell you this is right – fight it
Fight it
A big shot bitch is driving to the beauty parlor
One street separates her from the misery
A 9 year old black boy’s shot in the back
And while he’s dying
She takes a video of his agony
My child, should I tell you this is right
Or teach you to crush it in a fight?
I can’t tell you this is right
Fight it
Deep inside down in our hearts
Something is really strong
And it’s black as coal
Deep inside down in our hearts
Something is really strong
And it’s black as coal
My child, do not hide
Must fight until you can destroy it
My child, do not hide
Must fight until you can destroy it
Destroy it
Destroy it
Destroy it
Deep inside down in our hearts
Something is really strong
And it’s black as coal
Deep inside down in our hearts
Something is really strong
And it’s black as coal
(Black as coal)
Deep inside down in our hearts
(Black as coal)
Something is really strong
(Black as coal)
And it’s black as coal
(Black as coal)
Deep inside down in our hearts
(Black as coal)
Something is really strong
And it’s black as coal
(Black as coal)
