    Proceeds from tapes go to Intituto Zág (Zág Institute) – The zág or Araucaria as it is more widely known, is a native tree from south of Brazil that is sacred to a lot of indigenous tribes, such as the Laklãnõ Xokleng which has as one of the bases of their culture, the sacred ritual that involves Zág seeds and planting them in the correct way, the way it was originally planted ages ago.

    The Xokleng people suffer a lot of prejudice and a lot of harm from the government and other institutions who want to take away the land where they live and their rights, now they are trying to fight back by spreading their culture and asking for help.

    Here is a bit about them (in their own words):
    Our sole and exclusive cause is to remove our most sacred tree, the Zág (Araucaria angustifolia, Parana pine) from extinction. It is currently in the last stage before being considered extinct in the wild. It is the most critical stage of all.

    We have been carrying out this work since 2018, but we still lack some tools and have continuous expenses with food and accommodation for volunteers, fuel for transporting the seedlings, in addition to the need to acquire more protective equipment and some biodegradable materials that are used in the production of seedlings.

    As there are no more mature trees in our Indigenous Land, we have to travel hundreds of kilometers every year to obtain the seeds directly from nature. All our activities are carried out in the most traditional way possible of Laklãnõ techniques, combining them with modern agroforestry techniques.

    The purpose of the fund raised is to make more araucaria planting actions possible within the Laklãnõ Indigenous Land for the next season.

lyrics

eu passei por tantas vias sem entender
eu passei por tanto tempo sem poder dizer
eu passei por tanto tempo sem poder dançar
eu passei por tanto pensamento sem andar
eu andei por tanto tempo sem te entender
eu te entendi por tanto tempo antes de sonhar
mas cada sonho que me passou
só corta nada vem nada tem nada vai
tudo passa vira areia lá se vai satisfaz
mano eu não to pensando em mais nada além do cais
e os espíritos que eu vejo todo dia de manhã
quando olho além da margarina que compõe o pão
da minha mão se desfaz pelo ralo
não vejo mais nada
tudo que passou já passou um dia vem passado
mano eu to passado como a carne do meu prato
pode até tentar se por
no passado do pretérito perfeito
já tentei de tudo eu não sou tão perfeito
deixo a ferida aberta para poder cutucar
como viagem no tempo
não sei como voltar

I went through so many ways without understanding
I went through so much time without being able to say
I went through so much time without being able to dance
I went through so much thought without walking
I walked for so long without understanding you
I understood you for so long before dreaming
but every dream that passed me by
I'm not gonna let you down
I can't get over it, I can't get over it, I can't get over it
I'm not thinking of anything else but the pier
and the spirits that I see every day in the morning
When I look beyond the margarine that makes up the bread
my hand is crumbling down the drain
I see nothing else
all that's past is past one day
I am past like the meat on my plate
you can even try to put yourself
in the past perfect tense
I've tried everything I'm not so perfect
I leave the wound open so I can poke
like time travel
i don't know how to get back
