Living with the sin
A dirty world all around
Another missile speech
As they preach with no leash
Seven nations threatening
The world with a bomb
Sevens sins creating
A world from the womb
Show me a way
I can live and I'll grow
There is a way
That we can learn for ourselves
Written in the eyes the answer is ill
Anger builds a fire withing
Every lie the system is stained
A minefield of egos, opinions and words no more
Show me the way
I can change, I'll grow
Show me a road where I can reach
Where I can reach the light
Light at the end of the road
In this new world, painted black
Sloth and pride and envious anger
In this new world, another mark
Excess and lust with arrogance
In this new world, without a past
Atomic shit to fuck with our heads
In this new world, that's full of crack
Our children cry, they're lost and mad
We're lost
Show me the way
I need to know
Show me the road

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.
