Em Tempos De Guerra

Somos Um Só Somos Um Só

In Times of War

This is war, and there is no neutral territory
Either you are of the people against the people
Or you are of the people for the people

In times of war, you can't limp
They kill you from the nail to the nuclear weapon
It's this hypnosis they want to keep us in
A trained dog with no strength to win
The world is not a happy park
Marketing sells a pig in a poke
How many are riding on money
Now see a bunch in despair
I know how the machinery works
Creating slaves smiling with a salary
While a minority
Are like gods, only luxury
They don't know what it's like to live with violence
Seeing crime as a subsistence option
And the worst of all is understanding
People against people, submissive to Power
The student torn by the rifle bullet
Portrait of civil war in Brazil
There's no superhero from the movie screen
That will save you from your problem
Genocide is a wake-up call to life
If you're passive, history shortened
Grab the tools and let's sharpen
Waiting for mercy is the same as killing yourself

In times of war
Being a soldier is not an option
In times of war
Being a soldier is not an option

In times of war, you can't exchange
Protest for soccer, study for getting high
Revolutionary sound for a sensual hit
Precious time with social media
We are a dormant volcano
That's why they make us divided
There's no South Zone, no East Zone
We are One, the most fearsome plague
Tragedy doesn't move these people
In fact, it's the profit from the drug trafficking
From arms trafficking, from laundered money
From TV ratings, from the wealthy entrepreneur
Now is the time, it's been too late
Let's be the remnant of the ancestors
Who in their generation also stand up
Against the chains and repressions
I don't want to leave for my lineage
That living on crumbs is an advantage
That's why being a soldier is not an option
My inheritance is not a savings account for thieves
In times of war for the wicked
Lives upon lives are steps
And for the good, it's sacred ground
That kneels and kisses, respected and cared for

In times of war
Being a soldier is not an option
In times of war
Being a soldier is not an option

We are one is not fantasy
It's autobiography

We are one is not fantasy
It's autobiography

We are one is not fantasy
It's autobiography

We are one is not fantasy
It's autobiography
