Black Gold

He doesn't look or feel, he never stops
Just walks with permanent pain
Death kills and kills
It's never enough, it attacks and attacks
Those who pass by its path
Regardless of their way of thinking
It sweeps everything, shoots its red
And aims at the eye in the name of gold
In the name of flags and borders
In the name of absurdities, it's called war
It's called foolishness in the name of peace
What madness we are capable of
Children, families, screams
Bullets, bombs, cursed conflicts
With anger, with rage, with so much and so much helplessness
Your hands stained

How many brothers will you have to kill?
The crying earth will bleed
Let life come like a gale
Let life sprout, shine with strength
Let it radiate its light in all its essence

Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold

They don't stop, they shoot, they decide and kill
In suits and ties, they sweep with laws
Patriarchs and bosses or presidents
Bosses, masters or landowners
In the name of God, of security
In the name of calm and tranquility
Of crosses, dogmas, empires
Crowns, creeds, oil, they devour everything
They are state terrorists
Criminals loose everywhere
They suffocate life from their office
Sending their troops to certain death
Guilty of making the earth bleed
Guilty of killing communities
Guilty, guilty of making children cry
Guilty of burying life

How many brothers will you have to kill?
How many nations will you have to occupy?
The crying earth will bleed
For your insatiable power
Let life come like a gale
To sow flowers they want to cut
Let life sprout, shine with strength
Let it radiate its light in all its essence

Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
Black gold, white gold, green gold, blood gold
