There were once two twins from the humble East Rand
Who were somewhat identical and naturally tanned
They were trained in music of the classical art
Later introduced to metal by a blood brother counterpart

With newfound passion, they formed a band
And dreamed of one day touring the land
They were impulsively named Tenacious 3
Jamming at birthdays, weddings, and Bar Mitzvahs for free

They each had careers to pay the rent
But also invested in guitars – money well spent
They found music to be their purest form of expression
Writing songs about war, peace, and depression

Fuelled by fast food pizza and creme soda
They often discussed the teachings of Master Yoda
And further developed their musical powers
By practising for over 769 870 hours

Inspired by Vivaldi, The Beatles, Metallica, and Rammstein
They created a sound that is quite difficult to define
With dedication to master the music they played
They sought to break the rules that no one made

They recorded independently with a nagware application
In a workshop in Germiston without noise limitation
The machined heavy metal was well understood
By the surrounding industrial neighbourhood

They’re eternally grateful for the support they’ve received
From family and friends without whom this could not be achieved
This journey is the dream that has come true
’Cause playing music is what they were born to do

They now invite the reader to become listener as well
And the listener to become screamer and join in the swell
For your voice must merge with the guitar, bass, and drum
To realise its full potential when the many become one
