Men is not alone in this world and
Mankind is not completely absurd
Breaking men ground to build and to grow
Advancing their lives for better or worse

In a world growing fast we're losing touch
Cultivating hate and forging rules
Closing our eyes we search the sky
Expectations are from religion

What went wrong
I don't believe you

It's been around for thousands of years at least
There's nothing new with another catastrophe
A sense to move on is filling the air
Or are we all just being conditioned

What went wrong
I don't believe you
What went wrong
I don't believe you

Men is not alone in this world and
Mankind is not completely absurd
Breaking men ground to build and to grow

Kashmir - Colombia - Rio - New York
Old wars revived to revenge a lost
Taking what's left and burning it down
Creating oposition

What went wrong
I don't believe you
What went wrong
I don't believe you

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.
