Your greed is for money
My greed is for land
Shut off my eyes, clog up my ears
Cut off my tongue you'll still hear me coming
Shut off my eyes, clog up my ears
Cut off my tongue you'll still hear me coming

My blood is thicker
My pain will rise
Boycott my ideas fueled with the hate I feel
Infiltrated with the lies that you're feeding me
Boycott my ideas fueled with the hate I feel
Infiltrated with the lies that you're feeding me

One man army
One man army
One man army
One man army
One man army
One man army

Our strength's your weakness
Our truth's your lies
Shut off my eyes, clog up my ears
Cut off my tongue you'll still hear me coming
Shut off my eyes, clog up my ears
Cut off my tongue you'll still hear me coming

Surrounded by mistrust
Trapped in your mind
All you hear is - what you fear and
All you know is - what you see
All you fear is - what you don't know
And what you see won't last forever

One man army
One man army
One man army
One man army
One man army
One man army

Our truth will echo and echo forever
Our truth will echo and echo
Our truth will echo and echo forever
Tormenting you forever and ever

You'll still hear me coming through to you
You'll still hear me coming through to you
You'll still hear me coming through to you
You'll still hear me coming through to you

Boycott my ideas fueled with the hate I feel
Infiltrated with the lies that you're feeding me
Boycott my ideas fueled with the hate I feel
Infiltrated with the lies that you're feeding me

One man and I'm coming for you
One man and I'm coming for you
One man (one man)
One man (one man)
One man (one man)
One man (one man)
One man (one man)
One man (one man)
One man (one man)
One man

Sepultura is a Brazilian heavy metal band from Belo Horizonte. Formed in 1984 by brothers Max and Igor Cavalera, the band was a major force in the death metal, thrash metal and groove metal genres during the late 1980s and early 1990s, with their later experiments drawing influence from alternative metal, world music, nu metal, hardcore punk and industrial metal.

The first Sepultura show was on December 4th, 1984. The band played two songs that never were re-recorded or released.

The band name comes from a Portuguese translation of Motörhead’s song “Dancing on Your Grave” which is “Dançando na sua Sepultura”. Sepultura means “grave” (sepulchre) in Portuguese (and in some other Latin-based languages). Originally, they wanted to call the band Tropa de Choque (Shock Troops), but found that the name had been used before.
