Matamoros feat Justine Hall | Antiquity Music
Matamoros - Melody Justine J. Hall
Lyrics and music Gerald Duchene
Verse 1
In this town times mournful saddened cry
The bodies all lifeless and covered in lye
Nameless and blameless in the name of crime
Chorus
From the crib to the grave man is chained
From birth to death their fate is ordained
From birth to a gasp in life's cradled arm
Matamoros must do them no more harm
Verse 2
In this town where life is cheapened by lies
The murder of so many with no goodbyes
All life so hopeless and worthless and trite
All the schemers, they have all the might
Chorus
From the cradle to the grave man is chained
From birth to death all their fate is ordained
From breath to gasp in all of life's cradled arms
Outro
Matamoros, your sons and daughters
Matamoros, your fathers and mothers
Matamoros, until then, mourn the lost souls

Antiquity was formed primarily as a studio effort to complete an album concept. After several years of recording, it never transformed past the infancy stage of a live act. Antiquity encompasses two of America's principal and potent musical inventions. Jazz and it's bastard son rock. It sometimes seems that everything great has it's humble beginnings and jazz is no exception. It has survived war, slavery, racism, depression, war and war again and again and the battle with it's son. A child that has shone brightly in the spotlight and filled it's pockets with that greatest of American traditions, greed. Through all of this old man jazz has kept his head high and slowly emerged as the elder statesman. The wise old sage of the stage with rock right there beside him.
The Antiquity project has been blessed with some of New York's finest musicians adding a rich blend of Latin, Brazilian and African rhythms. This combination has helped to create a wonderfully diverse sound and influence in these songs as everyone brings something a little different and exotic to the table. Some of the members of this project have played with the likes of U2, Kid Creole, Gino Vanelli, Simply Red and Chubby Checker.
