Testament - Perilous Nation

Testament - 2. Perilous Nation - Practice What You Preach


[Testament/Skolnick]

Bold is the one who dares to say what he feels
Renegation man, to one he yields
The bleeding hearts and empty minds, hiding words they fear
Blind is the one who censors what we see and hear
Come into my world and take a journey with me
Paint me a portrait now, of the things you see

Men are poor and lost in war of ideology
No solution will prevail unless we can be
Free on anger, free of pain
Free of hatred that we obtain
Tell me what this place was meant to be

Can you see? Can you see what it does to me?
Can you hear? Can you red?
Can you see what it did to me!

Totalitarians in a Perilous Nation
Forcing through control turns, to desolation
Listen to the leader speak, he's your only friend
Take a stand in the motherland, take it to the end

Say now what you will, before they make it illegal
Time to draw the line, between the bad and the evil
Distant times had friendly rules, became its deadliest foe
We have heard it all before, the morals come and go

Men are poor and lost in war of ideology
No solution will prevail unless we can be
Free on anger, free of pain
Free of hatred that we obtain
Tell me what this place was meant to be
Free on anger, free of pain
Free of hatred that we obtain
Tell me what this place was meant to be

Can you see? Can you see what it does to me?
Can you hear? Can you red?
Can you see what it did to me, can you hear? Can you read?
Can you see what it did to me
Can you hear? Can you read?
Can you see what it did to me...

@davidscurlock1 Anthrax rules stfu

[Strindom]

@The1uFearisme Slayer started tuning their guitars to nu levels at some point. Compare Chemical Warfare and Angel of Death to any new slayer song.

[The1uFearisme]

@lowercase18 Megadeth sounded mostly the same, except they slowed down a littl bit in the 90's, probably to appeal to more people who aren't neccessarily huge metal fans. I don't listen to a WHOLE lot of Slayer, so idk. Metallica just went mainstream.

[lowercase18]

@The1uFearisme thts a tough one to agree with, do they sound different, sure. as does slayer, megadeth, testament, exodus and testament somewhat. is it still "thrash".. theres a little left in all of them, but its not as dirty, gritty, simple and yet blood boiling as it once was. 80s bro. only 80s, and early 90s.

[The1uFearisme]

@lowercase18 Nope. Only Metallica sounds like shit now, Testament's still wrecking shit bro
