All lyrics are presented (where applicable) as in the original CD album booklet so moan at them if bits are missed out, blank or use words which aren't exactly in the dictionary. I'll add bits in here and there if they're missed out and basically try my best.

01.Roots Bloody Roots (3:32)

Roots
Bloody Roots

I believe in our fate
We don’t need to fake
It’s all we want to be
Watch me freak

I said we’re growing every day
Getting stronger in every way
I’ll take you to a place
Where we shall find our roots
Bloody roots

Rain
Bring me the strength to get through another day
And all I want to see
Why can’t you see?
Can’t you feel?
This is real

I pray
We don’t need to change
Our ways to be saved
That’s all we want to be
Watch us freak

02.Attitude (4:15)

One week of struggling
On the real world is…
So you can see

Feel your soul and…
Shape your mind to warfare
It’s all for real

Live your life
Not the way they taught you
Do what you feel

Survive the jungle
Give me blood
Give me pain

These scars won’t heal

What were you thinking?
What a wonderful world
You’re full of shit

Leave it behind
They don’t care if you cry
All is left is pain

Can you take it?

The only way
To get away
Kill your pride
Attitude

I won’t take it

So in the end
I want to see some respect
(I said)
You better show some respect
(I said)
Attitude and respect

03.Cut-Throat (2:44)

Telling lies right into your face
Grab your soul and make a disgrace
Make you believe you’re bigger than life
No one cares if you live or die
Waiting for the moment to strike
Turn your art into a farce
Without respect
Without regret

Cut-Throat

You promise this and promise all
Deep inside
Nothing at all
In a war of filth and greed
We don’t need none of this shit
All I say that will survive
We know what’s true
We know what’s right
We’re going through this till the end
And I know you ain’t my friend

Cut-Throat

To give in
No way

So don’t tell us it can’t be done
Putting down what you don’t know
Money isn’t our god
Integrity will free our soul
(From…)
Enslavement
Pathetic
Ignorant
Corporations

04.Ratamahatta (4:30)

Hello uptown
Hello downtown
Hello midtown
Hello trenchtown

05.Breed Apart (4:01)

I’m crawling
On concrete and dust
Asphalt jungle
Piles of crust

Nonsense thoughts inside the mind
What really means
What I want?

Open up your mind
And go your own way

Straight old thoughts
To force you down
Raping rape
Breed apart

Open up your mind
And go your own way

06.Straighthate (5:21)

I ask myself why I’m so hateful
Perhaps it’s just part of my nature
People say I’m fucked it in my mind
Feels like there’s nothing left inside

Walking now on different dirty street
But the same old feeling still exists
Hate is like a shade that won’t ever leave
Leave me alone I don’t need sympathy

What goes around
Comes around
You going down
Down

Straighthate

Criticize and call me negative
But you never deal with life or reality
I separate myself from the rest
What the fuck you expect?

Straighthate
Straight fucking hate

Grow up in the ghettos
Made me real
To deal with my fears
Motherfucker you don’t understand
Pain and hate

07.Spit (2:45)

Hate them, hate them
Live your farce
Same thing, same way
Your karma will come

Ask me no questions
I tell no lies
Ask me again
I spit in your eyes

Live your life
Leave me alone

Face me, face me
Feel the cut
Open sore
Always bleeding

Live your life
Leave me alone

Spit

08.Lookaway (5:25)

{feat.Jonathan Davis, Mike Patton & {>DJ Lethal}

Each time I pull it apart I get disgusted
Can’t do it today
What makes it so good that a man would kill for it?
Lie just to lick a bit

Each time I pull it apart I get disgusted
Can’t do it today
What makes it so good to lie just to lick?

Fake it
You like it
Just take me away
Just save it and I’ll be repaid

Each time I pull it apart I get disgusted
Can’t do it today
What makes it so good that a man would kill for it?
Lie just to lick a bit

Each time I pull it apart I get disgusted
Can’t do it today
What makes it so good to lie just to lick?

Take it
Enlarge it
Became it
Before
Like it
I like it
And I’ll be

Fake it then like it
Just take it tonight
Take it

I look at you
You look at me
You look away

09.Dusted (4:03)

You make me mute
Hiding the truth
Revealing a farce
Created by your mind

What do you expect?
Exposing your lies
Printed in your eyes
There’s no alibi

To cooperate
And not be allowed
They’re killing my name
Sewing my mouth

Prospect in life
Lost in the line
To cooperate
And just be alive

You gonna fall hiding the truth
You gonna crawl finding the truth
To blame myself it’s my disgrace
To blame the world by my mistakes

Dusted

Turn around and turning around
And turning around and inside out

Do not disturb
Leave me alone
The fear within inside and beyond
The fear within inside and beyond

You make me mute
Hiding the truth
Revealing a farce
Created by your mind

What do you expect?
Exposing your lies
Printed in your eyes
There’s no alibi

You gonna fall hiding the truth
You gonna crawl finding the truth
To blame myself it’s my disgrace
To blame the world by my mistakes

Dusted

10.Born Stubborn (4:07)

Stubborn from the start
Obey no one no matter what
Out life
It’s our right
Why don’t you go away?

We live without orders
We live without rules
Tearing down the wall
That try to hold us in

Born in pain
Born stubborn

I got my tribe it’s my own right
And I don’t have to tell you why
It’s been like that from the start
And you can’t break us apart
Sepultura in our hearts
Can’t take it away
These roots will always remain

Born in pain
Born stubborn

Suffering life
Make us rise

11.Jasco (1:57)

{instrumental}

12.Itsari (4:48)

{instrumental}

13.Ambush (4:39)

Screaming
For more justice
Amazonia burns
Can you hear them?

I’ll fight
To save another day
So join us
And we’ll make them leave this land

Threatening
To kill how we feel
(But) if we stop them it’ll be worth dying for

When you go down
When you go down motherfucker
When you go down
When you go down fighting

When you go down
When you go down motherfucker
When you go down
When you go down fighting
Motherfucker

Why?

14.Endangered Species (5:19)

Life
The struggle to survive
Crawling, raging
Feed the hate inside

Are we going to see another day?
Are we going to make it all the way?
Are we going to see the light of the day?
Are we going to make it till the end?

Rise
Bad moon rise
Another war, another crime
End in sight

Bleak
Why & what the fuck?
Shut your mouth, shut your mind, this the way
You’re just another prey

Is that what we’ve become?

Rise

Are we going to see another day?
Are we going to make it all the way?
Are we going to see the light of the day?
Are we going to make it till the end?

Endangered species
Is this what we’ve became?

15.Dictatorshit (1:26)

1964
Coup d’etat
Military force
Hundreds dead

Why did they disappear?
Dictatorshit
Why did they disappear?
Dictatorshit
Ate’ nunca mais

1995
Spirit still alive
We still hear the cry
From the one that survived

Why did they disappear?
Dictatorshit
