Lyrics:
Incite a riot, put yourself in a trance
You rotate the frame in a world you rely on
A scar, a line has been drawn in the sand
Behold the life, the boundaries fools will crush

The greatest miracle
Is burning to the ground

Onto the next stage of the plan
Mourn the witness of the wind
A hand full of thunder
Will rise one last time

There’s fire in the sky
You’re in the Amazon
The greatest miracle
Is burning to the ground

Godly Amazonia
Bloody Amazonia
Mighty Amazonia
Killing Amazonia

Burn the land
Learn the end

Burn
Another Gold mine is unveiled
The source of our sorrow
Learn
Embedded in these walls of green
Is the curse that we follow
There’s fire in the sky
You’re in the Amazon
The greatest miracle
Is burning to the ground

Mighty Amazonia
Killing Amazonia
Godly Amazonia
Bloody Amazonia

    A French band with a Japanese name singing in English about the Brazilian rainforest! Awesome!
  • @viscaelbarca8007
    I played this song for a few friends. None of them liked it. Clearly, I need new friends
  • This group should be way more popular! Drummer is freaking awesome!!!
  • The energy is so liberating. People who don't listen this type of music will never understand.
  • @newgame897
    This song deserved the Grammy. It’s unique like nothing we’ve heard before.

    Guitarists: "Jim Root has the heaviest Telecaster" Joe Duplantier: "Hold my Whale"
  • As a teenager I imagined having an innovative band with heavy lyrics and sound, I don't have that imagination anymore thanks to Gojira, unbelievable!
  • I didn't know this band until the grammy. I'm a huge fan of dream theater but no doubt gojira should have won that
  • @ShikiPlays420
    I love the fact that this band is genuinely angry for all the right reasons
  • "We don't need to use gore or blood because life is already brutal enough." - Joe Duplantier Yes, Gojira doesn’t need any gory imageries to make a brutal music video.
  • @bluetooth_me
    This is so strong. As a brazilian, thank you. Times are always hard here, it's good to know that other people are aware and making efforts to show, to the world, what happens in this land.
  • @pptr4712
    Best metal performance. Gojira should be the winners of this Grammy award tonight.
  • @miskogwan9228
    Their riffs are so bad ass they don’t need solos in their songs
  • @jacksonwookie
    As a Brazilian, it mean so much to me that Gojira is bringing attention to the Amazon forest. The government won't do anything about the decimation and pretty soon, if no one pays attention, it will all be gone. Rock on Gojira
