This song is about what happens behind the scenes in Rio the Janeiro, I didn't want it to flow to represent chaos. (along with the 7/8 time signature but thats not relevant as this is about lyrics not music)

Rio de Janeiro.

Rio, the city of God
Carnival tonight. no-one will be sleeping
Everyone will go except for the children
They're hiding like rats in dark corners
when another party is about to start

Terciero Commando
Protect what is dear
the essence of fear puts them into
Hiding, behind a scope

With the finger on the trigger
One shot and their youth is killed

DEATH, DRUGS, POWER.

Like animals they rip and tear
the limbs of the prey but not for food
Death is not enough in the pavelas
Blood must boil. Skin must scorch

with their heads on display
one shot, another boy is killed
