Sepultura - Territory

Territory" (1993) by Sepultura is a raw critique of land disputes, propaganda, and dehumanization in conflict zones—particularly resonant with the Israel-Palestine struggle. The lyrics expose how ideology weaponizes geography. Over 30 years later, enduring its relevance.

Unknown man
\ Speaks to the world
\ Sucking your trust
\ A trap in every word
\
\ War for territory
\ War for territory
\
\ Choice control
\ Behind propaganda
\ Poor information
\ To manage your anger
\
\ War for territory
\ War for territory
\
\ Dictators' speech
\ Blasting off your life
\ Rule to kill the urge
\ Dumb assholes' speech
\
\ Years of fighting
\ Teaching my son
\ To believe in that man
\ Racist human being
\ Racist ground will live
\ Shame and regret
\ Of the pride
\ You've once possessed
\
\ War for territory
\ War for territory
