[Verse 1 - Derrick Green]
I got a letter from the government
The other day
I opened and read it
It said they were suckers
They wanted me for their army or whatever
Picture me given' a damn, I said never
Here is a land that never gave a damn
About a brother like me and myself
Because they never did
I wasn't wit' it but just that very minute...
It occurred to me
The suckers had authority
Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell
How long has it been?
They got me sittin' in the state pen
I gotta get out - but that thought was thought before
I contemplated a plan on the cell floor
I'm not a fugitive on the run
But a brother like me begun - to be another one
On the strength, the situation's surreal
I got a raw deal, so I'm goin' for the steel
I'm looking for that steel

[Verse 2 - Sabotage]
Ei tio, não sei colé que é
Quem quer ser bambam-bam paga de ponta de boné
Ansiedade das raças, dia baile [?] do tio Naza
É gente [?] sofrida, acompanhada, servidas sem nada [?]
Nos morros, no conto dos doidos, sou louco, não acho pouco
Cabelo espetado é eu de novo
Sou da favela, dos becos, dos morros
Sou da favela as cores nesse bairro é que me embarcam [?]
E não se cala, alguns tem raiva e se acaba
Sabotage é levada em trilha sonora e nunca para
O tio só [?] sabe, não propino pra canalha
O tio D voltou - wo-ho! - despraiado [?]
O rei de rame e serei, na letra pra bem da lei
O caçador de burguês, sou Dick Tracy também
Os vigaristas cacei, respeitei
Não sou pá [?], não sou rei, sou do bem Totalmente do bem, do bem, do bem, do bem

[Verse 3 - Sabotage]
Sei
Relata segura, um bom filho da puta andar assim nunca muda
Isso é Sepultura, Sabotage, Entretainity [?] mostrando [?] as ruas
Brigas, intrigas entre meus irmãos de raça
Não basta, só que tem umas caras estranhas que falham
... [?]
Tapa na cara não falha
... [?]
Bando de canalha
... [?]
Se acha quem deu falha

[Verse 4 - Derrick Green]
But I'll give 'em a chance, cause I'm civilized
As for the rest of the world, they can't realize
A cell is hell - I'm a rebel so I rebel
Between bars, got me thinkin' like an animal
Cell block and locked - I never clock it you all
'Cause time and time again time they got me servin'
On the strength, the situation's surreal
I got a raw deal, so I'm goin' for the steel
I'm looking for that steel

[Scratching]
They got me in a cell
They got me in a cell
Death row
What a brother know
Death row
What a brother know

Sepultura

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.
