The Backward Elite letra

Sunup in a post-war scenario
A hundred years summed up in hatred of our own
To assail and sell us
Our roots turned into a hostile foe
Through a colossal fraud that opened all the doors
For the undying us-against-us!

The dominant sense saying we’re low
The elite just gains more
Our slavery hasn’t gone away
The ball and chain have morphed
The face is new, the model is the same and it says

You’re not allowed
To anything more
Than what you’re bound to

Your wants will be never relevant
Since you were born you’ve learned it but you're defenseless
Our beliefs were built to give you a life that’s exploited and ruined
All our minds, stolen

The racist’s victory left so many of us stunned (shock!)
But all he brings was here but hidden for so long

Prey of the same lore
A nation built on hatred and scorn
The latent will to harm and demean all the helpless
Is crying from the pyramid's top

The elite’s mouth is yelling out
"Hey, yellow-shirts, c'mon!"
All fascist-moralists’ rage and choler for the rabble on slums
One more time
Our real heritage to the fore

No, no, no!
We tear your vote
Do what you’re bound to

And whatever happens after
Since this blatant looting was always the sole end
We will be ill and hearing their laughter
God, we are all just slaves in this game
Our lives, just exploited and ruined
All our wealth, stolen

There’s some relief
Advancement

A coup coming
One more coup comes
A coup coming
One more coup comes

A coup coming
One more coup comes
A coup coming
One more coup comes

One more coup coming
One more coup comes
One more coup coming
One more coup comes

We need to rise
We gotta free ourselves from the lies

Or run toward one more century
With this pain that never stops
Oh

Poisoned by the airwaves
Continuously stunned
Unable to clarify the cause

Gone
And going until nothing lasts
Would you sell your life?
And we’re waiting here forever
For how long we’ll be slaves in this game?
Our lives, just exploited and ruined
All our wealth
