City of God

歌詞

Two children raised in bitterness A poor life's what they lead Smoking pot is total bliss A future's what they need Helplessly the parents moan The youth's out of control They steal, they lie, they shoot the gun They hear destruction's call Faces! All these Faces! You know there's something more to this Place of horror, no tomorrow, always sorrow in the City of God Face it, got to face it, they keep on fighting to survive Bullets flying, see them dying, hear them crying in the City of God Dead souls Years have passed the kids grew up Two stories here to tell One became a normal Joe The other king of hell Dealing drugs spreading the pain He's on a killing spree Godfather of his district now He feels almighty free Faces! All these Faces! You know there's something more to this Place of horror, no tomorrow, always sorrow in the City of God Face it, got to face it, they keep on fighting to survive Bullets flying, see them dying, hear them crying in the City of God Dead souls The city's a mess - Drugs rule street They want nothing less - It's all that they need There's no compromise - Be quick or be dead The look in their eyes - Aiming straight at your head A living disease - There's no way to hide They do what they please - They're prowling the night To kill and to burn - Is all that they know The tables will turn - All the sorrow will show Life it ain't fair - There's no turning back They don't shed a tear - The final attack They planted the seed - And see what they get The one twisted breed - In the land of the dead
