Manifest Lyrics

    Friday, October 2nd, 1992
    Chaos has descended in 'Carandiru,' the biggest penitentiary complex in
    South America
    Over a hundred inmates dead and hundreds injured on the massacre
    The police arrived with helicopters and over two hundred armed forces
    They took the jailblock called 'Pavilhao Nove'
    And opened fire on the inmates in a holocaust method of annihilation
    The government of the city of Sao Paulo
    Cannot control the brutality of its police

    Holocaust
    Body piles
    Confrontation
    Mutilation

    Discipline
    Ignorance
    Conflagration
    Torture

    Over eighty percent of the inmates were not sentenced yet
    The bodies were filled with bullets and bites from the police dogs
    The police try to hide the massacure saying there were only eight deaths

    The violence of Brasilian cops is very well known outside of Brasil
    This kind of extermination is a method that
    They use to get rid of the overpopulation in the jails
    The violence of the cops left the whole pavillion destroyed after the
    Rebellion

    'Pavilhao Nove' (Pavilhao 9)
