Tesla - The Mission

Copied!

Colors pour into my new eyes
A brand new way to see the sunrise
I can't believe what I was missing

Shadows move on the horizon
Under a blood moon rising
Guns gold and Gods speak every language

There's no going back from here

This is my mission
Won't give up, won't give in
Nothing clouding my vision
I'm never bowing down, no

Killing fields burning all night
Win the battle by losing lives
Got nothing left but to seize the moment
Seize the moment
I won't let this fire die

This is my mission
Won't give up, won't give in
Nothing clouding my vision
I'm never kneeling down

This is my mission
Never giving up, never giving in, no
Nothing clouding my vision
I won't bow, bow down

This is my mission
I won't give up, I won't give in
Nothing clouding my vision
I'm never kneeling down, never kneeling down no more

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.
