The preacher


In days of old
When the books were untold
Speak of a world crushed by sin.
"The people will mourn of a war to be born"
Nobody would listen to him.
Think back in time
When the future you find
Is so faint that it's too hard to see.
Don't disavow his word
For the truth must be heard
Cause the preacher tells visions he sees.

In 1906
Like the future predicts
The city will crumble to the bay
Then what's in store
When the worlds go to war?
Peace will have come another day
Then came the one In the year of '41
Warfare would light up the sky
He beckoned the call Of the future for all
Blinded by what's in his eyes In days of old

When the books were untold
Speak of a world crushed by sin.
"The people will mourn of a war to be born"
Nobody would listen to him.
Think back in time
When the future you find
Is so faint that it's too hard to see.
Don't disavow his word
For the truth must be heard
Cause the preacher tells visions he sees.

Listen to these words I preach
Catastrophic lessons they shall teach
Listen to these words I preach
Catastrophic lessons they shall teach

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Testament is an American thrash metal band formed in Santa Clara, California, in 1983. Considered one of the most influential bands in the genre, they never achieved the same commercial success as Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax (the so-called "Big Four of Thrash"). Their sound is characterized by fast and aggressive riffs, often political or social lyrics, and a strong technical component. Some of their most representative songs: *The Legacy*, *Practice What You Preach*, *Into the Pit* and *Trial by Fire*. Among their most successful albums: *The New Order* (1988), *Practice What You Preach* (1989) and *Demolition* (1997). The band has gone through several phases, with changes in its lineup, but the central figure has always been vocalist Chuck Billy.
