Album: “Against” by Sepultura (1998)

Old Earth

We gamble with life fighting tribes after tribes
Colors and races misplaced in the spaces
We're falling, we're crawling, we're crying, denying

Heavy rain shaking ground, no roots will be found
Hate from my mother, the limits of mankind
We're lying, we're dying, destroying

The earth is rotting, the earth is rotting
Rot old old earth
The earth is growing, it keeps on growing
Rot old old earth

Believing in gods and spirits that can save us
Shout to the skies and disturbing the peace
We're rioting, we're shouting, we're killing, denying

Involved in our minds but not by our own actions
Consume all the wealth, there's no hope for redemption
We're burning, we're cutting, destroying

Can you feel? Can you feel it leave!
The earth is rotting, the earth is rotting
Rot old old earth
The earth is growing, it keeps on growing
Rot old old earth


Boycott

Urban war, cracked-up child
Painted in blood on concrete walls
Carbonic gas, cancer land
What do I care? What do I care?
Is he prepared? Can he face that?
He must handle the truth of real demands

Strike Boycott

Armed and ill, psycho kill
There's no ground holding my feet up
Trained to serve but I steal
What do I care? What do I care?
Protect society who pays me shit
It's south of the world, no justice sire

Strike Boycott

Stressful mind, fucked up life
I know the end can be suicide
Suicide, suicide
What do I care? What do I care?
Boycott the trigger and you'll have no feedback
Boycott the force that kept the sick in their beds

I'll boycott the trigger and you'll have no feedback
With hands tied, I can't receive what I need

Reserve no honor
Reserve no pride

Strike Boycott


Two songs about the destruction of tribal cultures in Latin America and the throwing of indigenous people in downgrading suburbs in big cities where they suffer from unemployment, diseases, alcoholism, increase of criminality, mental disorders, suicide. The only solution is the fight for their rights and reclaiming their lands.
