I study Spanish, but I sux at it.

I don't speak purtuguese, but that text doesn't seem to have any sensful content, they just seem to cry out some names... maybe names of places?

I'm pretty sure that Trenchtown is in Jamaica, it's craddle of Reggae music, Bob Marley mentions it in song "no woman no cry".

[The_Gu3st]

its just names of places like Matlu said. I went to a translation site and none of the words translated.

Even Guest could write a better song.

I believe they're names of Brazilian 'ghettos' - I think Favela's are the one's just outside sao paolo.

dont diss the song bakster! i like the song more for the music then its lyrics anyways... actually its fun to sing along with lol.. even tho i have no clue what they are yelling about 

i am curious what they are talkin about tho... alot of their songs seem to have sum serious subject(in album chaos ad anyways.. this song is off roots tho )... like how the gov't in brazil is evil and treat the tribes bad so i figured that this song mite of been saying sumthing important. even if it is just places the places probly have sum sorta significance to them. maybe they are just bad places where ppl are being treated unfairly.

i think they mentioned sao paulo in a diff song... now i must find it or i'll go insane  ah ha ya thats in song called manifest which is a story about a jail called  "Carandiru" where inmates were massacred and 80% werent even sentenced yet... ya so i think its safe to say they dont like that place i'd say your probly right parsley. anyone know what the other places could be?

[Bakster]

I rarely hear the lyrics in any of my music, I just like the sounds
