lyrics

LETRA:
Jurei mentiras e sigo sozinho
Assumo os pecados
Os ventos do norte não movem moinhos
E o que me resta é só um gemido
Minha vida, meus mortos, meus caminhos tortos
Meu sangue latino
Minh'alma cativa
Rompi tratados, traí os ritos
Quebrei a lança, lancei no espaço
Um grito, um desabafo
E o que me importa é não estar vencido
Minha vida, meus mortos, meus caminhos tortos
Meu sangue latino
Minh'alma cativa

LYRICS (translation)
I swore lies and I walk alone
I take the sins
North winds don't move mills
And all I have left is just a moan
My life, my dead, my crooked ways
my Latino blood
my captive soul
I broke treaties, I betrayed the rites
I broke the spear, launched it into space
A scream, a rant
And what matters to me is not to be defeated
My life, my dead, my crooked ways
my Latino blood
my captive soul
