Album: Arise (1991)

Songfacts®:

Sepultura is a Metal band from Brazil. Their vocalist/guitarist Max Cavalera told Holland edition Aardschok/Metal Hammer in April 1991: "'Murder' is one of the slower songs on the album and there is little change in tempo during the entire song. The lyrics are about the penal system in South America in general and Brazil in particular. If you thought that apartheid only existed in South Africa, then you need to take a look inside a Brazilian prison. 'Murder' is the total opposite of what everybody thinks about Brazil. Brazil isn't just sunshine, the beach and beautiful women, you know." >>

Dzo from AtlantaSepultura should get back together. I bet I would really jam
Dzo from AtlantaThis new world
Let's go of the old
The day's of the past
The prophecies told
Now here
For all to see
Is now the thing
That should not be
A demon among us
Walks the land
A virus he holds
In the palm of his hand
But we are not damned
By this alone
For sins committed
We must atone
Then the Father
He may forgive
So the demon dies
So we may live
We were made
To help each other
Sister for sister
Brother for brother
Friend for friend
Life for life
Child for child
Husband and wife
Now follow your heart
And not your mind
Then we will see
When we are blind.
Once again thank you Songfacts
For this opportunity to release my pain.
Luv you guys. Dzo.
