Pantera - No Good (Attack The Radical) Lyrics






In the states
There's a problem with race
Because of ignorant past burned fires
From evolution
We've been killing each other
I figure man should have it down to a science

No chance
Not for a minute
Not for a second
I won't be defensive
I'm straight out in my opinion
You'd better listen to a man who knows what he is saying
I've seen your side
You run and hide for the mere fact that you feel inferior
Be superior
And know your interior

[Pre]
Race, pride, prejudice
Black man, white man
No stand
Live in the past
We make it last
A hated mass
No solution
Mind pollution
For revolution

[Chorus]
So low behold my eyes
This land of fools will rise
No good
For no one

You blame oppression and play the role of criminals
To rape and burn show progress is minimal
White hoods and militants you know it's such a pity
Living, breathing
Violence in your city

If one man
Had one home
In one world
Held live alone without variety
Full of anxiety
No one to point at, question
Or even talk to -- in his private grave
No matter what color
He wouldn't be saved from hell
He dwells
A closed mind playing the part of prison cells

[Pre]

[Chorus]

Pantera No Good (Attack The Radical) Comments
  1. �.... �....

    That solo though

  2. T.... k....

    This song is so damn under rated

  3. J.... S....

    The first time I ever remember hearing anything Pantera was that opening riff. Sophmore in highschool. 1996. My lfe was changed forever. #GetchaPull #Dimebag #VinniePaul #RexBrown #PhilAnselmo #Pantera

  4. E.... L....

    Racist song. Enough said

    E.... L....

    😂

    Jesus, you are an imbecile

  5. A.... C....

    Sounds like it came from Cowboys From Hell

  6. R.... A....

    This is Even more true today than before. ..

  7. W.... W....

    Me when I find the CEO of racism

  8. D.... D....

    Happy birthday Dimebag!!! 🤘🤘😢😢

  9. M.... V....

    If you play this song loud in NW Louisiana, expect a fight or to go to jail. 70%~30% blacks to whites here and the exact “oppression they claim they dish out”. If there numbers were the same as ours we would already be in balls out war we each other. One day,”White hoods and militants violence in your city”.

  10. l.... ....

    This perfectly describes the state of today's leftist politics. Talk about prophetic.

    l.... ....

    I believe he is talking about radicals in general, whether that be far left or right. We are witnessing a war between the radicals which is "no good for no one".

  11. L.... C....

    The lyrics are really stupid, but this song definitively kicks ass. Great groove, and it's indisputable.

    L.... C....

    You must be a soyboy, smh. You should prolly cut back on those lattes.

    L.... C....

    you are not man who knows whats he sayin

  12. R.... D....

    Viva México cabrones!!
    Y pantera también!!

  13. z.... ....

    My race is red, white and blue

  14. G.... R....

    Now someone can say anything about Phil's songwriting level? What a lyrical content, man! Powerful and honest. Metal won't ever be the same after Pantera.

  15. D.... _....

    Best song my opinion on the album

  16. T.... ....

    The only race here is the human race, you should be pride in being yourself, race means nothing until you give it meaning. Races and breeds are equivalent.

    T.... ....

    So why do sub suharan Africans have an average IQ of 65-70? And why do whites have an IQ of 100 and East Asians 105...

  17. D.... C....

    "You blame oppression but play the role of criminals", never have truer words been spoken.

    D.... C....

    @PinkMetalHead Here's a fun statistic. What's 13% but accounts for over half?

    D.... C....

    @Dick Chappy not just over half but 90%..

    D.... C....

    I used to think this was an anti racist song

    Im thinking maybe its a piece about how people cant get over the past

    Certain people

    How long is long enough to be forgiven for something you didnt do?

    D.... C....

    @azmanabdula If you have white skin, never it seems

    D.... C....

    @Dick Chappy See what im saying

    Phils a genius

  18. j.... ....

    The beginning sounds exactly sounds like beating around the bush

  19. R.... C....

    the truth!

  20. P.... R....

    Songs like this make me think that Phil isnt a nazi

    P.... R....

    He's obviously not a racist or Nazi, as anyone who has ever been around him knows.

    P.... R....

    @Puta Realidad Yeah I know.

  21. M.... B....

    Fucking right Pantera told the fucking truth

  22. B.... ....

    It's actually "Black mail, white male".......

  23. u.... ....

    This is def directed toward blakes, and their apologist.

    u.... ....

    Or you're a goofball

  24. J.... K....

    PANTERA GEAT AMERICAN METAL TEXAS STYLE. MOTHERFUCKERS

  25. I.... H....

    Either everyone is proud of their race or everyone is content with it. That’s the only fair way.

  26. J.... T....

    The keltic style drumming at the end is phenomenal. Never heard it bfore until my drum teacher showed me those licks.

  27. M.... ....

    So low Behold my eyes ... This is so fucking good

  28. -.... ....

    GROOVE POWER!

    -.... ....

    POWER GROOVE METAL

  29. w.... h....

    Arianism look in Iran that's where originates, defined as pride of your own ethnic group! Mesopotamia!

  30. J.... M....

    You all take it, through and through.

  31. s.... b....

    https://media.giphy.com/media/K9xXlcMA6aw3S/giphy.gif i love this song and Pantera

  32. B.... F....

    Awesome song off thier best album. What do people think is their best album and why?

    B.... F....

    My personal favourite is Great Southern Trendkill, but that might be because it's what I heard first. Far Beyond Driven is amazing too. Those two are the best in my opinion. All 90s Pantera is great though.

    B.... F....

    I heard cowboys from hell on a thrash metal compilation album way before the cowboys album come out. It blew my mind I had to have that bands music. Nevertheless I think trendkill is the best as far as all out energy

  33. n.... n....

    man this song is cringe

    n.... n....

    You can spot a liberal from space, with comments like that it's too easy.

    n.... n....

    The left can't meme

    n.... n....

    Lyrics are quite cringe, I agree. But the song in itself, it definitively isn't.

    n.... n....

    @Leonardo Cefalo Lyrics are awesome what have you been listening to

    n.... n....

    Leonardo Cefalo how cringy?

  34. M.... B....

    One of the most overlooked-Underrated songs from Pantera IMHO. Feckin Bad Ass Song right here!

  35. d.... r....

    Debating about race equality is dumb as there is only one race, the homo sapiens. And as part of this only species we should of course be all respected.

    d.... r....

    They're diffrent races,but we NEED EVERYONE!!! we have to live together. RESPECT EVERYONE.Agree to diagree,but show some respect for everyone. Thats the point.

    d.... r....

    Race exists. A child could tell the differences between them

  36. P.... V....

    R.i.p vinnie this is one of my favorites songs you played so i like to remember you this way

  37. J.... W....

    rest in peace Vinnie

  38. S.... ....

    RIP Dime and Vinnie. You are sorely missed!!!

  39. R.... F....

    R.I.P Vinnie Paul \m/ I can't believe half of Pantera is gone.

  40. C.... O....

    you're no god

  41. J.... K....

    Phil is not r a c i s t bois.

  42. S.... ....

    And people say Anselmo's a racist. What fools they are.

    S.... ....

    It's no more than bandwagon bullshit, the word racist has been wore so thin it will be meaningless in the near future if they do not slow down with its usage. Crying wolf on a daily basis.

    S.... ....

    @Mike B Very well put.

    S.... ....

    @Mike B thats true

    S.... ....

    Exactly brotha. 1992 no less. Almost 30 years later. Unreal lyrics. #GetchaPull #Dimebag #VinnyPaul #RexBrown #PhilAnselmo #Pantera #CFH

  43. J.... H....

    Im happy to be white but I respect all races 🤘🏻🤘🏽🤘🏿

    J.... H....

    @chickennuggetswithaz 2 and Mexican!! And Asian!!

    J.... H....

    Jack Holland fuck other races you coward cuck

    J.... H....

    @冷月亮 Your wrong there friend, FUCK YOU piece of shit

    J.... H....

    Agreed, I also like how you use the term "happy" and not "proud". Being pride should be reserved for something earned, not by accident of birth.

    J.... H....

    @冷月亮 "Fuck other races" *Has a Chinese name*

  44. M.... S....

    This song may be the only one on the album in which Phil's vocal is fully ahead of everything else. Not even Dimebag is more visible here. That's a good change for a moment. You can fall in love with this rap-like singing. Especially that the lyrics has it's own sense. I'm positive that Pantera had overtaken the new era that we're used to live in.

    M.... S....

    Matthew Slantin'mouth there’s no “rap-like” singing/vocals here at all.

  45. M.... G....

    Wikipedia's Groove metal definition!!!! No good

  46. M.... J....

    It'd be nice if you could actually sync the lyrics with the song, so we don't have to read it then hear the lyrics a few seconds later.

  47. A.... X....

    Black People are becoming racist now.

  48. A.... X....

    It was Phil Anselmo talking.

  49. H.... a....

    I'm usually not very fond of the Pantera songs with the spoken word/whispering vocals, but I quite like them in this song. It's very groovy sounding. It almost sounds rap-like (go ahead and crucify me).

    H.... a....

    Horror and Halloween 101 rap-like? Wtf does that even mean? I believe what you’re hearing is Darrel making that guitar squill, no scratching here brother. You are half right about the groove, most interviews explain their Groove Metal pioneering! You want metal and hip hop fusion check out Necro: The Prefix For Death album, Necro was chopping metal rap beats back in ‘94.

  50. L.... g....

    love you

  51. F.... R....

    This song kicks ass in so many ways.

  52. A.... B....

    that solo kicks so much ass

  53. S.... ....

    Did Pantera just predict the future?

    S.... ....

    Jostin137 oh yeah? Think again brah

    S.... ....

    I guess it's one of those things thats kinda always true regardless of time.
    Fuckin people man.

    S.... ....

    Except for when it burns to the ground and the good rise up from the ashes.

    S.... ....

    yep 😉🤘

    S.... ....

    The land of fools will rise

  54. D.... C....

    Song could perfectly fit on CFH imo. Great tune either way

    D.... C....

    what are you smoking? this is completly different from CFH vibe.

  55. P.... S....

    There is nothing in Pantera's music that is racist in fact it there is a theme of equality that runs through all of their songs especially with Phil Anselmo. To the other side of the argument there is some of the comments that Anselmo has made and things he has done that would suggest otherwise. Pantera also recorded an album with David Allen Coe that is not in itself at all racist, but the same cannot be said for Mr Coe. All in all I still like Pantera, I have been to several Pantera concerts through the years with my best friend who is of colour and I have never had a problem. If you want to see racism because you don't like the music you will see racism. If you like the music enough you can ignore anything, just look at Chris Brown fans.

    P.... S....

    I'm so jealous you got to see them live!! Would give my left testicle to have seen them!!!

    P.... S....

    Fuck equality. Can't generalize people more than by saying everyone's the same.

  56. R.... 1....

    FUCKEN A!!!!!!!

  57. R.... 1....

    This is double thumbs up!!! Trample the weak hurdle the dead 💀 Pure Vulgar display of POWER.

  58. O.... M....

    Who wants dimebag to resurrect??? Meeee

    O.... M....

    Oscar Menjivar and Vinnie :'(

  59. I.... A....

    this is the best lyrics from pantera

  60. F.... R....

    0:25 Hell yes

  61. A.... R....

    Phil for President!

    A.... R....

    He has the voice so he better run in 2020. xD

  62. P.... ....

    This song is and always will be so fucking good. God damn.

  63. e.... ....

    he is speaking the and the sad part we are witnessing it in unfold before our very eyes

    e.... ....

    @INTOtheVOID11 Oh good gravy, fine, here, take the last word! Gosh! I swear, some people. Make sure you tell your friends about how you "got" the Trump supporter! Silly boi.

    e.... ....

    @INTOtheVOID11 Also, that makes no sense. Your initial point was retarded. Good grief you make my head hurt. I was having fun poking at a dufus, but now you're just annoying. Way to wreck a girl's good time.

    e.... ....

    @INTOtheVOID11 Now you can have the last word.

    e.... ....

    @ladybabbleon Sounds good. Now you should go back and read all your comments and put some thought into how you became such a muppet.

    e.... ....

    @ladybabbleon Lol Are you really trying to have a conversation with an inbred? He is clearly left wing.

  64. M.... H....

    people say: "black power" , "brown pride" , " white power" I don't see a difference. everyone is just proud of their race in whatever they feel pride in. good for them. just as long as we still all get along I don't see a problem with it .

    M.... H....

    Motor Head there’s also those who say pride leads to division and division to disaster

    M.... H....

    Because the contributions of whites to Western civilization completely dwarfs any other race, they regard it as mean if whites feel pride for their people.

    M.... H....

    @RoboticsNShenanigans Exactly.

    M.... H....

    How’s about we just salute the human race?!

    M.... H....

    @Melvin the Mop Boy You must be white if you're saying that shit. Non-white people aren't thinking that way.

  65. R.... R....

    my brother is no good. attack that radical!

  66. H.... L....

    Phil is a great songwriter. Too bad this pussy generation is so blind.

    H.... L....

    yuuup. nobody has the balls to see straight.

    H.... L....

    @Courtney Keiffer Some do, but they are greatly outnumbered

    H.... L....

    The agonist have a lot of good songs relating to this and other topics and they've for sure opened my eyes! Songs such as
    Trophy kill
    Business suits and combat boots
    Panophobia
    Thank you pain
    Revenge of the Dadaist
    Predator & prayer.... ect ☺️

    H.... L....

    ever head good friends and a bottle of pills?

    H.... L....

    What generation do you mean cause I love pantera

  67. s.... ....

    A clearly antiracist song ... But still the late anselmo bullshit can't be forgotten.

    s.... ....

    Anselmo isn't a racist, Sapio. Racists don't marry jewish women and don't have ex-gfs who are black. Trust me. Vikernes is like that, ask him if he'd marry a jewish woman. That's a racist, not Anselmo. Anselmo simply refuses to be p.c. and rightly so.

    s.... ....

    I fail to understand how that make him a bad singer

    s.... ....

    sapiopneumoni - the only thing Anselmo did that COULD be construed as out of order was the nazi salute, and personally I don't have a problem with that as we've all done similar shit when we're drunk with tongue planted firmly in cheek. As for Phil's messages of White Power over the years, I couldn't agree more (I don't agree that every other culture can celebrate their culture except whites) and if you don't maybe Pantera is not for you snowflake? There is no room in Metal for SJW's.

    s.... ....

    I think he's taken way too many drugs. Just listen to his interviews. He isn't right in his mind anymore. Such a shame.

    I think he did it "as fun" how he explained, which might be true, but it's still incredibly stupid.

  68. P.... A....

    Still the better answer from Anselmo for people calling him out for the (agreed - unfortunate) WP joke. land of fools indeed.

    P.... A....

    @ryan eko No doubt, all good.

    P.... A....

    +Deege Dunford Yup...Maybe...And? Big deal.

    P.... A....

    very true

    P.... A....

    +Hard Truth When Phil is drunk, on drugs or whatever the shit, he can do or say some crazy things.

    P.... A....

    In Korea he as a white person, was a minority. So it was ok to say white power, since blacks and other minorities are allowed to be proud as a minority as well.

  69. n.... ....

    My first Pantera riff that I heard and learned was ironically "Planet Caravan", and I'm a big Sabbath fan, RIP Rhodes and Dime, Zakk will carry on your legacy

    n.... ....

    @Hard Luck my bands working on it dude. Were recording this summer😂

    n.... ....

    @Jaden Mckeith send me a link

    n.... ....

    @Hard Luck do you have an instagram?

    n.... ....

    @Jaden Mckeith No

    n.... ....

    @Hard Luck shiiittt..alr, ill screenshot this and once we release it ill send it to you lmao

  70. R.... R....

    first pantera riff I ever heard. still just as badass as the first time I heard it in 2000.

    R.... R....

    +RiFF RAP3R My Was "Mouth For War"

    R.... R....

    +RiFF RAP3R I remember very clearly back in late '92 I was in seventh grade and my friend gave me a bootleg tape and said "listen to this band, it's awesome! The singer screams but his volume is down so it's not overpowering". I had no idea what he was talking about until I listened to Fucking Hostile. Instantly hooked from that point on.

    R.... R....

    RiFF RAP3R The first one I heard was Walk

    R.... R....

    This Love or Cowboys From Hell, not exactly sure on which song I heard first but I know i heard them back to back one day and it was a wrap for me. Fuck Hulk Hogan - Pantera is immortal.

    R.... R....

    Way before 2000 tho
