'Oro is a god of the Polynesian pantheon. The veneration of Oro, although practiced in varying intensity among the islands, was a major cult of the Society Islands in the 17th and 18th centuries, especially Tahiti and Raiatea. On Tahiti 'Oro was the main deity and the god of war. The secret society of Arioi was closely linked because of its rites. On the Marquesas Islands, 'Oro bore the name Mahui.
Four main gods were venerated on the Society Islands: Ta'aroa, originally the god of the sea and fishing, Tane, god of the forest and handicrafts, Tu, the old god of war and Ro'o, god of agricultural products and the weather. These main gods were also venerated on the other Polynesian islands.
The colonists who settled as part of the Polynesian expansion spread their religion amongst the various islands. Over the centuries the continual movement and developments of the original society groups brought about local differences and adaptations of the cult within the Polynesian Triangle.
Oro means gold in Italian and Spanish.
Oro may refer to:
Hora, also known as horo and oro, is a type of circle dance originating in the Balkans but also found in other countries.
The name (spelled differently in different countries) is cognate to the Greek χορός: 'dance' which is cognate with the ancient Greek art form of χορεία; see Chorea. The original meaning of the Greek word χορός may have been 'circle'. The course of the seasons was also symbolically described as the dance of the Greco-Roman Horae, and they were accordingly given the attributes of spring flowers, fragrance and graceful freshness.
Also, the word is present in Slavic languages and "hora" and "oro" are found in many Slavic languages and have the meaning of round (dance) and the verb 'oriti' means to speak, sound, sing which previously meant to celebrate.
The Greek χορός is cognate with Pontic 'khoron', Bulgarian хоро 'horo', Romanian 'horă', Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian/Montenegrin/Slovenian 'kolo', Macedonian/Montenegrin 'oro', the Turkish form 'hora', 'valle' in Albania, and in Hebrew הורה (Hora). The Khorumi dance of Georgia also might be connected to the Horon dance in the neighbouring Turkish regions, as it rose out of the Adjara region, where Kartvelian Laz people coexisted for centuries with Greek Pontians.
[INTRO]
I swear we had it baby
It's so dramatic lately
I keep on tryin, got me cryin
seems you want it this way
[verse:1]
with every word that you said
I let you play with my head
your empty promises, so hollow like your broken mind.
[hook]
What if you were my osession,
taking out all my agression
think that you could handle this
or deal with it, the way I did (baby)
what if to get your attention
I'd use you for my own affliction
when no one is around, kick you when your down
tell me, would you like that
(trapped)
[chorus]
After all that you
put me through do you
think you got a hold of me (no)
don't you know i'd never be
(trapped)
I feel like I was (trapped)
you know you had me (trapped)
and I won't ever look back, or fall into your trap.
[verse 2]
It's like it makes you happy
to shatter all the memories
until this day they bring me back to how I felt so alone
my battered heart is broken
our dreams are left unspoken
you took the light right out of me, boy your so cold I'm frozen
[hook]
what if you were my obession
taking out all my agression
think that you could handle this
or deal with it, the way I did (baby)
what if to get your attention
I'd use you for my own affliction
when no one is around, kick you when your down
tell me, would you like that
(trapped)
[chorus]
After all that you
put me through do you
think you got a hold of me (to)
don't you know i'd never be
(trapped)
I feel like I was (trapped)
you know you had me (trapped)
and I won't ever look back, or fall into your trap.
[OUTRO
Now that the chains have broken
I have my eyes wide open
your just a chapter of my life
Forgive my imperfection
you were my weak de-lesson
no tears to cry, I live my life one day at a time
[bridge]
You cant break,
you cant break,
you cant break me.
I won't let,
I won't let,
let you you take me.
You cant break,
you cant break,
you cant break me.
I won't let,
I won't let,
let you you take me.
(trapped)
[chorus]
After all that you
put me through do you
think you got a hold of me (no)
don't you know I'd never be
(trapped)
I feel like I was (trapped)
you know you had me (trapped)
