Brazil Lyrics
The city's asleep, the street fires burn
Her gaze is ablaze with soft concern
The children may fall, the children may rise
All of them tears that fill her eyes
She's loved by the world, they dance at her feet
But how they forget when no one sees
The children who starve, no warmth from the flame
The lessons of lust will claim their shame
Your wealth is controlled by the few
I'm watching the world come to you
See how they want you, brazil
See how they taunt you, brazil
The world wants to steal your soul, brazil
Sister, don't lose control now
They dance through your past, they dance through your pain
Their wanderlust lost in you again
The children may fall, but see how they rise
To dry all those tears that fill your eyes
Revolt in the streets and voices that cry
Justice in truth, no compromise
If love is the law, it's so ninety-three
Brazil, will you set your children free?
Your wealth is controlled by the few
I'm watching the world come to you
See how they want you, brazil
See how they taunt you, brazil
The world wants to steal your soul, brazil
Sister, don't lose control now
Where are you missions now? Where is the gold?
Promised you everyone ages ago
Your wealth is controlled by the few
I'm watching the world come to you
Brazil
I'm watching the world come to you
Brazil
I'm watching the world come to you
Her gaze is ablaze with soft concern
The children may fall, the children may rise
All of them tears that fill her eyes
She's loved by the world, they dance at her feet
But how they forget when no one sees
The children who starve, no warmth from the flame
The lessons of lust will claim their shame
Your wealth is controlled by the few
I'm watching the world come to you
See how they want you, brazil
See how they taunt you, brazil
The world wants to steal your soul, brazil
Sister, don't lose control now
They dance through your past, they dance through your pain
Their wanderlust lost in you again
The children may fall, but see how they rise
To dry all those tears that fill your eyes
Revolt in the streets and voices that cry
Justice in truth, no compromise
If love is the law, it's so ninety-three
Brazil, will you set your children free?
Your wealth is controlled by the few
I'm watching the world come to you
See how they want you, brazil
See how they taunt you, brazil
The world wants to steal your soul, brazil
Sister, don't lose control now
Where are you missions now? Where is the gold?
Promised you everyone ages ago
Your wealth is controlled by the few
I'm watching the world come to you
Brazil
I'm watching the world come to you
Brazil
I'm watching the world come to you

From my viewpoint, as a Brazilian, and judging by the year of this album, I presume the author could be thinking about the shoking notices on the large criminal organization that our Federal Police started to dismantle, in 2014. The investigation is still in course and it is revealing a monstruous web of corrupt politicians, executives and entrepreneurs who begun to operate in 1985 and almost destroyed Brazil. Yes, we almost lost our liberty, during the last decades of left wing politicians sharing the power, but now it is done. Our people is awaken and very conscious on which way to follow. All the liers and thieves will be punished. We now are taking the control of our future.
