Rilès - QUILOMBO lyrics

[Verse 1] If they cut mother's ears as she wasn't free And they sold her in front of my family Colons raped her, then belaboured She couldn't breathe anymore, but still ride her Oh, too bad punctured lungs, she died on the floor Take her teeth, body's out, given to the condor Next my brother ripped nose from lashes on his face Barely seeing, eyes gouged, stop it where's your faith ? I'm a negro from Angola's Bantos tribes Motherf**er I swear I will avenge my clan All my brothers, sisters, friends and relatives You k**ed all of them, for you all the same breed No, no, no! Not my father, don't touch him He's my last, He's my hand, my bones and ribs He teaches me life and everything, I still need him (Hundred lashes, throw him a brick, his face exploded) [Hook] (x2) I swear I will avenge my family As long as I'm still standing, breathing, on my feet In my heart, abundant are sadness and pain But my hatred for you, will remain the same [Verse 2] So I fled to Quilombo, deadly course Thank God I'm alive, it could've been worse But not worse than what I saw, never forget Everytime I think about it, eyes are wet But I stay strong, and brave It was the creed that you taught me Decades after, I'm a warrior of Zumbi I'm a grown man, king of my clan and my tribes And I'm back on this land, where they snatched your life Free all slaves Burn their cages Freedom is not written On a piece of paper But in our blood And in our veins For our sacrifices Unbearable pain [Hook 2] (x2) I swear I just avenged, my family And I'm still, standing on my feet In my heart, abundant are sadness and pain But my hatred for you, will ever remain the same
