Maria

[Verse 1] The sun ablaze as Maria's foot touches the surface of sand On northern land, as human contraband Some rico from Jalisco passed her name to the Boss She stuffed into a truckbed, she clutches her cross Here comes the exhaust and it rips through her lungs She's off fast to the pasture, like cattle she'll cross Degree 106, sweat and vomit are thrown And she prays and suffocates upon the memories of home Of Yanqui guns for blood debts on the loans Of smoldering fields rape rubble and bones Of graves hidden trapped up in visions of war Of nothing, no one, nobody, no more! [Chorus] These are her mountains and skies and she radiates.. Through history's rivers of blood, she regenerates.. And like the sun disappears only to reappear.. She's eternally here...her time is near Never conquered but here... To tear away the mask! [Verse 2] And now she got a quota The needle and thread crucifixion Sold and shipped across the new line of Mason Dixon Rippin' through denim the point an inch from her vein The foreman approach, his steps now pound in her brain His presence it terrifies and eclipses her days No minutes to rest, no moment to pray And with a whisper, he whips her, her soul chained to his will "My job is to kill if you forget to take your pill" Her arms jerks, the sisters gather round her and scream As if in a dream, eyes on the crimson stream Numb as her wrists spit shots of blood to the floor I am nothing, no one, nobody, no more! These are her mountains and skies and she radiates.. And through history's rivers of blood, she regenerates.. And like the sun disappears only to reappear...Maria... She's eternally here...her time is near Never conquered but here... [Chorus] Ugh, To tear away the mask! To tear away the mask! To tear away the mask! Ha! [Pre-Chorus] No minutes to rest No moment to pray No minutes to rest No moment to pray No minutes to rest It eclipses her day Just a moment to pray [Chorus]
