See the storm - moving in

Gaining speed - in my creed
Pain - and tears

Hate - and fears
Our sense of real is extinct
All the things we see
Why don't we accept as it is
All the things we hear
Why don't we accept as it is

Opens up - all you can see - knowledge to be
See the light - breaking fast
With a will - there's a way
When there's innocents - there is guilt

Why don't we accept as it is
Our sense of real is extinct
All the things we hear
All the things we see
Why don't we accept as it is

The more we see and learn
The more we seek and find
We are what we can reach

We are the ones alive
To survive the best that we can

It's all according to plan
We can't escape as it is
Take what there is accept as it is
Take what is yours accept as it isWhere is it we're all trying to go

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.
