1890
Once
In the old world
Men and women
Were burned and hanged
In the name of God
By the lords of faith
In the new world
Men and women
Remain slaves
As if it were fallen leaves
By the money lords
For the sake
Of enrichment
Don't you know
Baby
I also know
That nothing
Is permanent
But it looks like
A black angel
Descended to earth
To haunt us
Is there no complacency among men?
Is the look of truth
The terror that hangs over us?
Don't you know what slavery is?
Or will it be a world of fiction for you
Don't you know
Life is not easy
Don't you know
No need for great wisdom
Don't you know
Baby
In the old world
Men and women
Were burned and hanged
In the name of God
By the lords of faith
In the new world
Men and women
Remain slaves
As if it were fallen leaves
By the money lords
For the sake
Of enrichment
Don't you know
Baby
I also know
That nothing
Is permanent
But it looks like
A black angel
Descended to earth
To haunt us
Is there no complacency among men?
Is the look of truth
The terror that hangs over us?
Don't you know what slavery is?
Or will it be a world of fiction for you
Don't you know
Life is not easy
Don't you know
No need for great wisdom
Don't you know
Baby
