Testament - So Many Lies Lyrics






I didn't mean to offend you
But you were way out of line
And I can't help the way I feel
Who said I feel fine?
I'll only give you one warning
Then you must realize
The day of judgement is closing in
your selfish ways bring your demise

He who lies
Evil pays
Who are you?
Who made you anyway?
Wrong or right
Who's to say
I wanna know
Who made you God today

Slave to the ways of the system
Soon to be crucified
I've seen into your darkest fears
The ones you cannot hide
I know where you go when
Your fears start showing
You run, You cannot hide
Will they respect you when
You ask of the world,
Forgive me for so many lies'?

He who lies
Evil pays
Who are you?
Who made you anyway?
Wrong or right
Who's to say
I wanna know
Who made you God today

Is there a need to pretend
To be a man, so divine
And even if I offended you
My truth you can't deny
I know where you go when
Your fears start showing
You run, You cannot hide
Will they respect you when
You ask of the world,
Forgive me for so many lies'?

He who lies
Evil pays
Who are you?
Who made you anyway?
Wrong or right
Who's to say
I wanna know
Who made you God today

Testament So Many Lies Comments
  1. �.... �....

    if this album is Testament's "black album", I prefer it to the "original" "black album"...

  2. A.... M....

    This reminds me to "A touch of evil" by Judas Priest.

  3. C.... L....

    Oooooh!!! Fuckin Aye

  4. Y.... Z....

    After the first 2 albums, they took the commercial mainstream... But the first two Im still listening to. Cheerz!

  5. B.... S....

    And the next song is...….LET GO OF MY WORLD!!!!!!

  6. N.... ....

    Such a good song, never getting tired of listening to this album, not a bad song on it.

  7. b.... ....

    Favorite testament song! Kicks ass!

  8. 4.... G....

    He could leave a president's post, but he doesn't want, damned parasite, bastard! I'm living in Netherlands.

  9. 4.... G....

    Can be to devote*
    I'm sorry for my grammatical mistake...

  10. 4.... G....

    This song, in this moment, maybe to devote to Vladimir Putin, he's really many lies to their crowd

    4.... G....

    This fits our current US president much better.

  11. D.... G....

    CRANK IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  12. B.... H....

    very rarely do you hear a song that's heavy as crap, has a killer groove, AND is packed full of so much melody. Hats off to Mr. Skolnic and the boys.

  13. D.... O....

    Lock n lol child

  14. V.... K....

    Testament are awesome. Period.

  15. j.... o....

    3:20-3:58 one of the best solos in metal

    j.... o....

    Ne, hay mejores en el mismo Alex. Para mi el mejor es practice what you preach

  16. M.... 5....

    The people that sit there and talk shit about Metallica and Testament in the comment section are some fake ass fucking metal heads enjoy all of the bands if you don’t like them that’s fine but don’t sit there and talk shit posers

  17. M.... K....

    These guys truly squash Slayer in musical ability

    M.... K....

    Comparing apples to oranges. They both maybe under the Trash genre but they have completely different sounds and styles of playing. Most of Testament's songs are more of a melodic sounding thrash while Slayer goes for the heavy riffing on crack/ crystal meth speeds. Moronic trying to compare the 2.

  18. S.... F....

    So many lies in our world!

  19. S.... E....

    Testament>metallic a no comparison better musicians from top to bottom period!!!

  20. P.... L....

    The song is very very Magic!!!

  21. X.... G....

    Un super album !!!

  22. P.... L....

    Dall'Italia un grande abbraccio a tutti i veri fans del Mitico e sano (TRASH METAL) dei primi anni 90...Questo è un grande pezzo dei grandi "TESTAMENT"..!

  23. b.... ....

    #hilaryclinton

  24. j.... o....

    Sickest solo

  25. K.... D....

    I think, this is one bests albums for sure, this song is my one favorites but my favorite is, the ritual definitely, also heaviest album ever! In then when i bought this cd, i don't quite surprises about this album, not so energy aggressive as testament is usually but pearlest anyway, all songs are very pearl, none bad songs in, how i like this.

  26. R.... A....

    Alex has done SO many good things since this ..

  27. S.... m....

    Play this song when I broke up with my ex last year 😂

  28. K.... D....

    Good cd!

  29. K.... D....

    Great song, album win all newer albums brightly!

  30. R.... A....

    Testament makes my day every day 😎😎

  31. y.... ....

    Sounds of an evergreen metal!

  32. k.... ....

    soooo glad i was a teen in the 80s and grew up with this stuff from the beginning :D man.. the shows back then, the scene. the thrash scene that is... i wouldn't trade those memories for nuttin'. and soooo glad i got to see Testament (my favorite thrash band) on their last tour through the Carolinas !!

  33. D.... G....

    Love this tune

  34. D.... C....

    My name is Daniel. in case that you forget, the meaning of my name is, 'god is my judge'. so if you pretend-god by judging me out of hypocrisy, then i will use a reflection field to brainwash you into killing yourself! and if you are so guilty of idolatry and self-righteous that you figure that i should cower in fear of you; then know that you will wish that you never had no such wish for any black soul. because any heart that is the root of all evil is incredibly efficient at transforming fear into both anger and hatred!

    D.... C....

    i am a soul of black. my brother in-the-spirit is also a soul of black. he is known as 'creeping death', even though most modern-day anthropologists deny him! i don't want you to fear me. i only desire your respect towards both myself and my rights as the post-modern demonic servant of god: the demon of truth and knowledge, the master of orion i am... through me: all freedom is new. i have plans already set into motion to use both guns and butter to end slavery of the gentiles. freedom shall conquer the galaxy as an unpredictable pathogen conquers it's host organism! long-live free-market capitalism including respect for private means. freedom calls persistently very loud!

  35. D.... C....

    honestly: this song closely approximates how i currently think about the human race! i don't have to believe a single word that any single stupid human has to say!!

    D.... C....

    and whosoever chose to make you god today also made the mistake of pissing me off! all that humanity has proven to me is the reason that humans are simply NOT ready for knowledge!

  36. m.... a....

    1:22
    FIIIIRULAISS !!! :V /

  37. N.... a....

    T E S T A M E N T !!! Yeah !!! \m/

  38. S.... E....

    cool way to send her off haha

  39. D.... C....

    Seriously, the Metallica comparisons are done without any true knowledge of Testament. Much better band and a better Lead guitarist for damn sure! Alex smokes all over Kirk. Without question.

    D.... C....

    Even Chuck's Air guitar sounds better than that of Kirk

    D.... C....

    Skolnick totally owns Hammett man!!! in fact Skonick is the best lead guitarist out there right now

  40. N.... J....

    Sounds like Metal Gods. "We've taken too much for granted" etc xd

  41. j.... s....

    Who the fuck needs djent when you got this massive fucking thrash to mosh to

  42. D.... T....

    Algum br ?

  43. L.... ....

    Underrated album. Applies to world events today.

  44. P.... M....

    Best woodcutting music,EVER...........😶..........remember?

  45. R.... R....

    Background music for cucking.

  46. V.... A....

    Return to Apocalyptic City tempo should have been the album version's as well.

  47. J.... S....

    TestAmenT is best thrash metal band hands down !!!!

    J.... S....

    Jonathan lindemann fuck yeah, chuck's vocals & Alex's riff's & solo's are untouchable.

    J.... S....

    beg to differ, have you not heard of kreator and death angel?

  48. J.... G....

    Screw metallica. They went POP or mainstream. Testament kept it real....... real Thrash meta, that is.
    This is one of those fucking heavy songs that just fucken rule. Love it.

  49. B.... D....

    Why do people bring up Metallica under a Testament song?

    B.... D....

    the very end of the lyrics sounds alot like James on the vocals, but only that.

    B.... D....

    @Big Daddy Coz they are just a third tier imitator of them

    B.... D....

    @Arka \m/ A third tier imitator that is far superior to Metallica.

    B.... D....

    @shawn 9k Superior in sucking and writing 10 times inferior cloned songs and be a 3rd tier worthless dickrider whose existence is as worthless and irrelevant as the sun on a full moon night, I agree

    B.... D....

    @Arka \m/ YAY!!!! You have a fucking opinion, good for you. If you don't like Testament WHY the FUCK are you here? Just to be a dick I suppose, how surprising.

  50. M.... D....

    whenever I listen to this song it always gets stuck in my skull. Testament sure are not as popular as the "other guys out there" but i gotta admit songs like this are top notch shit! One of my favorites by far.

  51. p.... ....

    This is for the status quo and for Hillarys. Wake up people.

    p.... ....

    And now this is the brazilians voting song.

  52. D.... ....

    Scolnick!!!

  53. A.... A....

    Holy fuck this is epic!!!!!!!!! So formidable!!!!!!

  54. R.... C....

    song kicks nuts

  55. S.... D....

    TestamenT came in this album with a lots of ballads in mind,They are Huge

    S.... D....

    Ballads? Return to Serenity notwithstanding, it's just slower and heavier. More towards metal's blues roots- also waaaay ahead of it's time. Listening to the first 4 Mastodon records always makes me want to listen to The Ritual again :D

  56. S.... D....

    Metallica is a lame proved,Metallica is a lie a big lie

  57. S.... M....

    played this right after my divorce hearing ........ ex looked pissed ha ha ha

    S.... M....

    Snake Man Yeah baby,she made a so-called joke about taking MY dog back and I said;point-blank,"over my dead body you will!" She turned around,climbed her fat ass into her car and left! So much for honor among thieves!!!

    S.... M....

    Snake Man update:this guy hung himself 18 months ago.

    S.... M....

    Updateupdate: he still made my lunch for 2 bucks an hour tho.

  58. m.... v....

    this song reminds me whwn i was 12 years old..one of the first song i ever loved :)

  59. q.... ....

    To me, this is far and away the best Testament album. Next is Low.

    q.... ....

    My favorite but that probably is because this album was my intro to Testament. Other than that I love their entire catalog.

  60. A.... P....

    I used to dislike this song, but I can now realize it's awesome. I've never expected to come back to it and give it a new chance.

  61. G.... D....

    testament rips metallica's pussy sell out bitch asses

  62. b.... ....

    Metallica are better than Testament and Souls of Black is a bad album. Oh, so many lies!!!

    b.... ....

    bloodcorer you can t understand What metal is!!!! The most stupid this i ve read

    b.... ....

    Julien Oro he said so many lies, because he thinks that Souls Of Black is a good album, and Testament is better than Metallica

  63. T.... ....

    Here is another song that they will never do again. Just never.

  64. j.... ....

    My favorite album after The Gathering!

  65. S.... D....

    crunchy

  66. r.... j....

     HE WORLD THAT WE LIVES IN TODAY HAVE................................................................................................
     SO MANY LIES

    r.... j....

    Has always been like that as far as i am concerned. Sometimes things get just uglier. I love looking back on these songs how many are still relevant today!

  67. L.... S....

    HEAVY RIFFS.

  68. A.... ....

    Walking Dead theme?

  69. r.... ....

    this is the best testament song....look no further

  70. S.... D....

    Crunchy Tune

  71. J.... G....

    Yes, that's why they have sold out the O2 Arena in London for the first weekend of August :D

  72. B.... A....

    I'm 29 & I fucking LOVE Iron Maiden!!!!!

    B.... A....

    Bassist Atheist Ozz im 18 and i fucking love testament

  73. M.... ....

    I went to see them August 18, 2012... I'm 16, are your sure about your statement? Excuse the "I'm X years old and love this kind of music" chatter.

  74. U.... R....

    Walking dead theme song sounds like the guitar solo prelude

  75. I.... ....

    You're kidding right?

  76. Z.... ....

    Slayer, Testament, Megadeth, Metallica.

  77. d.... ....

    Where the hell is Iron Maiden? They aren't even on the map anymore. I haven't heard their name in 20 years. They must be on tour with Suicidal Tendencies on the "Who the hell are these guys?" tour. Anyone under 40 has no idea who they are.

  78. d.... ....

    Btw, Testament plays Metallica covers live from time to time. Which is paying the ultimate respect to a band that paved the way for the others that followed. Phillip Anselmo's band has opened for them many times. So go ahead throw Pantera on that list of followers as well. Funny how you say they are dead yet most of those other bands were playing in clubs and bars and tiny venues before metallica invited them on tour. You should be praising them for bringing the others back to life. Respect!

  79. d.... ....

    Because Metallica influenced all of the bands associated with thrash dick. Funny how everybody says they are sell outs for changing their style of music, yet Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax all went to grab the money when they had the chance to tour with them. At least Metallica isn't riding the coat tails of someone else's music for the "money grab". I like all of those bands, but enough with the Metallica hating. Thrash would have died in somebody's garage without them.

  80. C.... S....

    they till and sow the dirt while others reap the harvest.

  81. C.... ....

    Great song..I can really relate to it. Best advice, listen with your eyes closed. If you like goosebumps.

  82. M.... ....

    A little overrated, but still talented musicians.

  83. Z.... ....

    you're right man.... agree with ya 100%.....

  84. 6.... ....

    get the fuck out no one likes you here, go listen to your bieber bf

  85. M.... ....

    I pity your mother for giving birth to a piece of shit like you. By the way, Metallica fucking sucks...

  86. B.... ....

    This song goes to one of my fucked up cousin's.

  87. J.... H....

    Thrash Metal starts and ends with Testament. That's all I gotta say... Wait. Anthrax is pretty good too. Wrong or right, who's to say?

  88. k.... ....

    kashmir ......metal version :D

  89. v.... ....

    You're missing the entire Tampa death metal act... :)

  90. i.... ....

    terribly overlooked album, the songwriting on this one is superb.

  91. P.... A....

    Luv This Song...!! =0)

  92. b.... ....

    chuck billy lived through cancer? holy fucking shit.

    b.... ....

    Yes. There was no supporting tour for The Gathering. Same time we also lost the other Chuck...Schuldiner. they rallied for each other. But we lost Schuldiner.

  93. L.... A....

    I like both chucks new and old voice.
    If you cant appreciate both, i don't think you are a testament fan... - It's still Chuck, man.
    The guitar riffs are still kickass
    So are the bass riffs.
    And the drums is still heavy
    - I don't see why u don't like it.

  94. M.... ....

    The best band of the Big 4 era, too bad they're not included...

  95. h.... ....
