Tesla - I Wanna Live

Copied!

What I want is what I need
Is everything that I'm supposed to be
Have my hopes....
I've gt my dreams
I have to fight for what is right for me

Everything that I expect
I take in and I have no regrets
Life's too short, there's not rain check
Just one shot at it is all you get

I wanna live before I die
Don't want the world to pass me by
I wanna live
I wanna live before I die

Ya tell me this, ya tell me that!
Ya make the rules that's where it's at
They hold me down, they tell me lies
Do I listen? I don't even try

Listen at, the world's a stage
I'm like an animal out of my cage
I'm runnin' wild, I'm runnin' free
Just one shot at it is all I need

I wanna live before I die
Don't want the world to pass me by
There's so much more I wanna try
I wanna live

I wanna live before I die
Don't want the world to pass me by
I wanna live
I wanna live before I die

I can't wait around, I just can't waste my time
I don't care if you think that I'm mad out of my mind

I wanna live before I die
Don't want the world to pass me by
There's so much more I wanna try
I wanna live

I wanna live before I die
Don't want the world to pass me by
I wanna live
I wanna live, I wanna live

I wanna live before I die
Don't want the world to pass me by
I wanna live
I wanna live before I die

Biography

edit bio

Tesla is an American heavy metal band with a long and tumultuous history. The band was originally formed in Sacramento, California in late 1981 by bassist Brian Wheat and guitarist Frank Hannon under the name City Kidd. Lead vocalist Jeff Keith, drummer Troy Luccketta, and guitarist Tommy Skeoch joined the band by 1984, completing the lineup that would become known as Tesla.

By 1986, Tesla had shifted from their glam-derived sound to a more 'rootsier' direction and decided to change their name to Tesla. The band quickly gained popularity and by 1990, they were on the rise with hits like "Love Song" and "Signs". However, the band began to show signs of wear and tear, leading to the departure of drummer Troy Luccketta and the introduction of Stefano Pasta as his replacement. Unfortunately, Pasta's time with the band was short-lived as he departed due to personal reasons.

In 1996, Tesla made the difficult decision to disband, with each member pursuing their own solo projects. However, in 2000, they decided to reunite and continue making music together. The reunion was not without its challenges, as guitarist Tommy Skeoch struggled with substance abuse issues and ultimately departed the band in 2006. He was replaced by Dave Rude, who brought new energy and talent to the group.

Despite the ups and downs, Tesla has remained a force in the heavy metal scene, selling over 14 million albums in the United States alone. Their dedication to their music and their fans has solidified their place as one of the most iconic bands in the genre. Tesla's journey is a testament to the power of perseverance and passion in the face of adversity.
