There's a sickness that keeps reaching out

Grabbing a hold of the world no control
Reputation, reputation

Mortality of the men
Fear is the motive in the things that do, that they do
Cowards they always leave filth in there tracks that won't wash, wash away

Their world seems so godless
Their world seems so godless
The way to be stronger
All out to war
By force we will conquer
The fraud the elections denying the freedom of choice from the people

All out to war

Repeating the errors inventing excuses to profit from conflicts
Reputation, reputation

A world so godlessMortality of the men
A world so godless

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.
