7. Tree Of Pain
My pain is as deep as my roots
The yearning, the hurting
What am I to do?
Indeed I plant seeds for the path I walk
And my voice helps them grow like water
When I talk but Im hurting yall
You didnt die in vain, your thought
With me remains and your soul gives me
Strength to face another day
Without you
In this tree of pain
In this tree of pain
In this tree of pain
Till the day I see you again...
Again
Under this tree of pain
Where we carved our names
Forever to remain
This pain
No one can understand
You know we cant pretend
That everythings okay
Bleeding...Screaming
I touch your grave
I kiss your face
This pain is more than I can take
I punch your grave
I call your name
This pain is more than I can take
Again
I find myself again
Under the tree of pain
Where we carved our names
Why then
Leave without goodbye
Just tears in my eyes
And the love you left inside
Bleeding...Screaming
I touch your grave
I kiss your face
This pain is more than I can take
I punch your grave
I call your name
This pain is more than I can take
For D-Low
Everyday that I pray
This pain, It hurts me so bad
All the days that I never had
All I have, my God
Is this tree of pain
All I have, my God
Is this tree of pain
Carved my name, my God
In this tree of pain
Carved my name, my God
In this tree of pain
Dana...One minutes all I need
Dana...To heal the things that bleed
Dana...Why God why?
8. One Nation
A vision of unselfishness, a union of black and white
One nation of all races, it's clear within my sight
I see it clear, no hate, no fear, no soldiers sent to die
A state that's free and thrives on peace, no greed, no threat to life
We won't build the weapons of war which looms over your heads We'll not feed the war machines that lead our youth to death We won't close our eyes to the atrocities which abound
We won't stand and watch until we're six feet underground
The future is our burden, we can't stand and watch
As the world around crumbles, opposing armies march
We work towards our goal: one nation - unity
And you must be the convert who works towards world peace
Muthafuckers around us who stand and say no way
Opposing lessened armies, they say are here to stay
But no one knows until we try, what we all can do
I won't watch children die, it's up to me and you
Our world is divided, the boundaries have been drawn
Ideas are decided by where you have been born
You can't judge people by the government of their land
They're flesh and blood like us - why don't you understand?
The future is our burden, we can't stand and watch
As the world around crumbles, opposing armies march
We work towards our goal: one nation - unity
And you must be the convert who works towards world peace
10. Call To Arms
All your beliefs filled up with lies
Blinded from what you call prophets
Your Jihad's a joke, revenge is our fight
We'll crush the Al Quaeda to stop it
Drop the bombs in...
Drop the bombs in...
Wipe out your muthafucking schemes
Bring the troops in...
Bring the troops in...
Wipe out your minority
World has united to weed out the scum
Our people have all took a stand
We're tired of your bullshit, the actions of few
That threaten the future of man
Drop the bombs in...
Drop the bombs in...
Wipe out your muthafucking schemes
Dig the roots out...
Dig the roots out...
Your holy war is nothing to be proud
A call to arms
This call for pride
You can never take from what we feel inside
All our strength
Is in our hearts
This is our call to arms..
11. Four Elements
I cant wait for another day
I cant fake, I cant pretend
I cant stand and watch you say
These things you dont understand
I cant wait till I get the chance
Looking down, staring in your face
Motherfuckers rip off my name
And pretend on you bullshit fame
Ill bring da shit
Ill throwdown
Ill make you bleed
I cant wait here comes the hate
Whatcha gonna do without your fame?
You dont bite the hand that feeds ya
Youre going down, no money can save ya
Ill bring da shit
Ill throwdown
Ill make you bleed
Heart, Fist, Soul, Mind
Heart, Fist, Soul, Mind
Heart, Fist, Soul, Mind
Heart, Fist, Soul, Mind
13. Sangue De Bairro
Bezouro, Moderno, Ezequiel,
Candeeiro, Ceca Preta, Labareda,
Azulão, Arvoredo, Quina-Quina,
Banananeira, Sabonete, Catingueira,
Limoeiro, Laparina, Mergulhão, Corisco!
Volta Seca, Jararaca, Cajarana, Viriato,
Gitirana, Moita-Brava, Meia Noite, Zabele!
These are the names of the members of Lampiao's gang! They were outlaw rebels that would steal from the rich and give to the poor (like a Brasilian Robin Hood). When they were captured, their heads were decapitated and displayed in the square of the city of Recife, Pernambuco.
Quando degolaram minha cabeça
Passei mais de dois segundos
Vendo meu corpo tremendo
E não sabia o que fazer
Morrer, viver, morrer, viver
