The Persecuted Won't Forget Lyrics - Testament

The noose around my neck cinched in tight unmercifully 

The tighter that it gets enables only my eyes to see 

Truth through all the dust, twisted lies, which you decree 

System unjust, you will never bend my knees 

The broken and the blessed both sides try to preach to me 

Social unrest, who labeled me the enemy 

In pieces shall we rest, for those who choose not to believe 

So put me to the test, who wrote those pages of history? 

Subject to another threat, living without regrets 

Pay the price with my death, the persecuted won't forget 

I cannot breath, you watch the pain suffocating me, lie lies 

I cannot breath, you watch me bleed suffocating me 

Can't break away my heart still beats unsevered 

My soul be saved amen condemned forever 

I've been awakened can't be mistaken 

The lessons beseech you break free from the noose 

The noose around my neck cinched in tight relentlessly 

The tighter that it gets, my heart still beats but I can't breath 

In pieces shall we rest, for those who chose not to believe 

Liberty in death, after all is said you won't break me 

Subject to another threat, living without regrets 

Pay the price with my death, the persecuted won't forget
