1. TRIBE

"Zumbi ½ o senhor das guerras
Zumbi ½ o senhor das demandas
Quando Zumbi chega
E Zumbi quem manda"
(Crenóa popular)

Your tribe - Our tribe
Your life - Our life
Your tribe - Our tribe
Your life - Our life

Your tribe - Our tribe
Your life - Our life
Your God - Our God
Your tribe - Our tribe

Tribe

Your tribe - Our tribe
Your God - Our God
Your tribe - Our tribe
Your tribe - my tribe

"Hear the drums... they come from the sea
Bring the tribal spirit on me
Cause my pride and my roots I believe
No, this tribe you can't take it from me"

Apalai Apiaca Arara Botocudo
Goitaka Guarany Yamamadi Ypixuna
Maori Aboriginal Zulu Banshee
Mohican Masai Hopi Panga
Omai Asaro Xingu Buli
Guaikuru Tukano Tupinamba Karo
Kaiapo...


2. QUILOMBO(ZUMBI DUB MIX)

This is a true story of a slaveman
Who fled his people from the white man
So I'll say that he showed me the way
To be brave, brave, don't be afraid
"Zumbi" his name, "Quilombo" his place
Our root you can never erase
"Zumbi" his name, "Quilombo" his place
Our root you can never erase

Thirty thousand Zumbi refugees
Fight the right, the right to be free
Rape the city, the masters of greed
Follow the warrior, the warrior Zumbi
No more no more no more slavery
No more no more no more misery
No more no more no more suffering

Zumbi Zumbi
Blow them away

Here we come, here we come slave drums
Here we come, here we come Quilombo
Time for war in tha land of the sun
I know God will not leave us alone
I know God will never leave us alone

Zumbi Zumbi
Got to be free

Quilombo Quilombo


3. NO HOPE = NO FEAR (LIVE)

Whoever told ya you can never be free
Whoever told ya you can't seek out that dream
Whoever told ya you can never be free
Whoever told you that is your enemy you see...

My life is mine, my right is mine
Cause it's my life, you see, not your life
My life is mine, my right is mine
Sometimes you have to lose your mind...

No Hope = No Fear

I won't wait for the next life
The time is now, the time is right
Follow my heart, I'll get through
If you're not now, you never were

So lose yourself to find yourself
Don't need to act like nobody else
Sometimes it feels as if the road is blocked
I'll find a way, I'll move those rocks

Freedom!


4. BUMBA (LIVE)

We tha land of carnival and murder
Bring tha drums and the sounding of thunder
Oh my people, we got to get stronger
With the spirit of war in "Quilombos"

Jungle people jungle
Never underestimate our power
Jungle people jungle
Never underestimate our power

Bring our roots, we're under the sun
From in the jungle and from the slums
Our freedom we bring with this song
Never forget where you came from!

Bumba! Bumba!

"Oxossi" - open my way
I'm gonna tell the world what you say...
I know "God" - making me a way
We pray, we pray everyday...

"Ele ½ caboclo, ele ½ flecheiro - Bumba na calunga
¾ matador de feiticeiro - Bumba na calunga
Ele vai firmar seu ponto - Bumba na calunga
E vai firmar na angola
Bumba na calunga e na f½ de Oxala
Bumba na calunga..."
(Ponto de coboclo sete flechas / T.E.P.J. da C.)

[Translation by Marcel]
He is "caboclo" (a kind of race) , he's warrior - Bumba na calunga
He's a wizard killer - Bumba na calunga
He'll stand his place - Bumba na calunga
Do it in Angola
Bumba na calunga and faith at Oxala
Bumba na calunga..."

No more no more no more slavery
No more no more no more misery

6. SOULFY (ETERNAL SPIRIT MIX)

"We sat outside the studio at night, among a few candles, and
Closed our eyes for a minute. After that, we jammed straight
From our hearts. We didn't play for ourselves, but for the ones
No longer with us in flesh, but always with us in spirit. God bless.
Until we meet again. Soul fly... fly free!" - Max C.
