Look me straight
Now blame it on loneliness
Who knows?
Certainly not them
Where is this?
The lane that takes you head on
But for now
You do not/cannot contemplate
Certainly not you
And silence is dread
'Cause look what you've done
Aligned outside no aim
Which follows me
Painted over a well cleansed abdomen
Tattooed ugly and blue
The enemy
Watch and wait
A childproof survival kit
Just for a glimpse
Of the everlasting big kick
Secrets bleeding to untold families
Lovers in flight over the gravesite
We become statues
I want to tell you a story
About a little man
If I can.
A gnome named Grimble Grumble.
And little gnomes stay in their homes.
Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine.
He wore a scarlet tunic,
A blue green hood,
It looked quite good.
He had a big adventure
Amidst the grass
Fresh air at last.
Wining, dining, biding his time.
And then one day - hooray!
Another way for gnomes to say
Hoooooooooray.
Look at the sky, look at the river
Isn't it good?
Look at the sky, look at the river
Isn't it good?
Winding, finding places to go.
And then one day - hooray!
Another way for gnomes to say
Hoooooooooray.
Why can't you say sorrow
Why can't you say think I believe
Thou must not steal borrow
Why must you steal things I receive?
Why can't you say sorrow
Why can't you say think I believe
Why must you steal borrow
Always conceal cling to belief
Damaged this way hollowed
Living the lie that you can't take
Damaged maintained solemn
Living for rules you only break
How can you say?
The enemy is thrown into the sadness,
For the enemy there's only pain and sadness then death
How can you say?
Sorrow
The enemy is thrown into the sadness,
The plans, of a race gone mad
A final solution to pass
All dreams are taken from their lives
No hope for the young all the old realize
He is but a solitary man
Whose prejudice will spread like a flame
Throughout the land
He's enslaving those who will be free
Etching his own name in black
For all of us to hear and see
A yellow star for those accused
There's no escape once you've been pinned
A relocation only to confuse
And all their propaganda to hide the awful truth
Screams - In the night
scars so deep that they won't mend
Screams - In the night
Screams - In the night
in their souls they can't pretend
Screams - In the night
Six million lives on the hands of heads of state
They followed orders from above
Then one man when all was lost
He took his life, he'll never pay the price
They cannot hide or defend or disguise
For the truth is well known there'll be no alibis
Judgement will pass and their fates
won't be kind
you peer through the darkness, billy clubs aimed. they smash ya once or twice till ya don't look the same. ya gotta know who your enemy is. the enemy. ya gotta know who your enemy is. the enemy. they rope ya to a time clock. to keep you on the line. and now your losin' the pieces of your mind. ya gotta know who your enemy is. the enemy. ya gotta know who your enemy is. the enemy. the newsmen are lying. drawing line like black & white. makin' you believe it's your brother you gotta fight. ya gotta know who your enemy is. the enemy. ya gotta know who your enemy is. the enemy.
I want to chase my dreams
But you just punish me
I lost myself inside the lies and wicked ways
I'm starting to believe
You'll be the death of me
But all I see is the reflection of the enemy
I think I've lost my way
Because I got nowhere to run
And nowhere to hide
I'm running from the enemy inside
I'll fight for my life
Because I want to survive
It's not the TV screen
It's not my family
I'd still be damage even if I grew up perfectly
It's something deep inside
Something I can't explain
It's like I've got a disease without a fucking name
I think I've lost my way
Because I got nowhere to run
And nowhere to hide
I'm running from the enemy inside
I'll fight for my life
And try to survive
I got to face the enemy inside
I'm crying for help
I'm living a lie
I'll do anything just to stay alive
I can't take it anymore
Can't fake it anymore
I swear I'll give up my fears
And I can't take it anymore
Can't fake it anymore
I swear I'll give up my fears
Because I got nowhere to run
And nowhere to hide
I'm running from the enemy inside
I'll fight for my life
And try to survive
I got to face the enemy inside
This is the end of me
The end of me
This is the end of me
To remain objective
to a closer call
Secretly rejected
and to mediocrity fall
caught on the downslopes of life
the patted shoulder remembers
the elbowed side resists
Encircled ad nauseum
an enemy to define ourselves
an enemy to refine our hate
Encouraging on the negative scale
Bent out of shape is the measuring norm
In words and in writing
No one knows my enemy like I do
A social repellant
(not) merely an adversary
lost to the FAILING words
Kept the last of all
understood glances
Confines me its all that i see
Sickness keeps you following me
Keep it inside, all that is sharp
Hold it inside, all that is dark
Tear
I'll shut you up
Down, down, down
I'll destroy you
Kill or be killed
Down, down, down
You've become the enemy
Enemy
I thank you for making me feel
Make me feel like i want to kill you show me you're evil inside
Now won't you just curl up and die
Tear
I'll shut you up
Down, down, down
I'll destroy you
Kill or be killed
Down, down, down
You've become the enemy
Enemy
You make me
You make me hate
You make me
To remain objective
To a closer call
Secretly rejected
And to mediocrity fall
Caught on the downslopes of life
The patted shoulder remembers
The elbowed side resists
Encircled ad nauseum
An enemy to define ourselves
An enemy to refine our hate
Encouraging on the negative scale
Bent out of shape is the measuring norm
In words and in writing
No one knows my enemy like I do
A social repellant
(not) merely an adversary
Lost to the failing words
Kept the last of all
Understood glances
Staring at the picture of someone I know I love
You had to part, now you're gone
Cannot sleep at night I toss some... for him to see
We're killing time with myself
You are always there to remind me
Your face if you're never around me
You are always there to remind me
You make me feel loved
I'm the enemy, I'm the enemy
I'm the enemy, I'm the enemy
Wishing for the days that we first met and we moved out
To places where we could die
To places where we could die
You are always there to remind me
Your face if you're never around me
You are always there to remind me
You make me feel loved
I'm the enemy, I'm the enemy
Hey Mister, backstabbin' son of a bitch
You're livin' in a world that'll soon be dyin'
And I know everybody knows you try to be like me
But even at your best as a man, you couldn't equal half of me
I am realizing that everybody's lost their simple ways
And now that it's here, I see it all so clearly
I've come face to face with the enemy, the enemy
You, you're another shit talkin' punk to me
You're a living inspiration for what I never wanna be
And I see you've been blinded by what you believe
And now back up and sit down, shut up and act like you need to be
I am realizing that everybody's lost their simple ways
And now that it's here, I see it all so clearly
I've come face to face with the enemy, the enemy
Come to me, come to me
The enemy come to me, come to me
So predicting you're the reason why I lie
Simple decision took me too much time to fly
Oh, checkmate
I am realizing that everybody's lost their simple ways
And now that it's here, I see it all so clearly
I've come face to face with the enemy, the enemy
Come to me
Eyes decide this wrongful right
A broken chance
To save your worthless life
Your wrongful rights
Don't change a fucking thing
Brainwashed to kill and kill again
Your worthless life don't mean shit
"the enemy of my enemy is my friend"
suck my dick and choke on the load that i blow
right down your fucking throat!
ive already forgotton more than you will ever know
Who I once was I do not know
Starting from scratch as Johnny Doe
I have no name or number
No family nor friends
No one on which I can depend
I'm no enemy
Just a man who've forgotten his past I have no identity
All is blank, my memory's gone with the wind
Seem to have lost my mind somewhere
Can't seem to find it anywhere
People are staring at me
With fear in their eyes
Children are crying at my sight
I'm no enemy
Just a man who've forgotten his past, why all this
Hostility won't you please tell me what I have done
this witch-hunt can't go on anymore
can't you see - this pursue is killing me
leave me alone, I'm not the enemy,enemy!
I'm no enemy
Just a man who is asking himself who am I no enemy
Just a man who is asking himself who am I
no enemy I'm your friend
[by M. Mussorgski]

Love and happiness are gold
That's what I have been told
Be forever save and free
In harmony
Find your peace and find your soul
Christ!
I think I'm getting sick of all those happy people
time they get what they deserve
Pain!
That's what I feel when they come crawling, they come falling down
I think they better look at me
Look at me!

I drive up and down Harlem blocks, iced out watch
Knots in my socks, cops think I'm sellin' rocks
Pullin' me over too see if I'm drunk
But I'm sober, they wouldn't fuck with me if I drove a Nova
Listen Colombo, you're mad because your money come slow
And what you make in a year, I make in one show
Now you wanna frisk me and search my ride
Call me all kinda names, try to hurt my pride
You're just mad 'cause I'm a young cat, pockets dumb fat
Talkin' 'bout where the gun at, I been there and done that
I'm through with that illegal life, I'm stayin' legit
I love to see cars come cruisin' by and playin' my shit
I walk around with six thou' without a pistol, my whole click's wild
I'm rich pal, no more sticks, I'm makin' hits now
I drink Cristal, I'm through breakin' laws
I don't sell coke anymore, I do tours
So get that flashlight outta my face
To bring me down them Jakes'll do whatever it takes
Word up them federals got my phone and my house tapped
Prayin' that I fall for the mouse trap, I doubt that
Why do I end up in so much shit?
I done came way too far to be callin' it quits
Jake wanna lock me up even though I'm legit
They can't stand to see a young brother's pockets get thick
Hey yo, enough's enough, federals try to set me up
Put me in cuffs and crush what I lost into dust
Plus, they want a nigga sued, but they know
Big Joey Crack ain't never rat a cat that he know
For sure, death before dishonor, I left the streets alone
Since Tone deceased it almost killed his mama
So I'ma keep doin' what I'm doin'
Pursuin' my dream till there enough cream to start my own union
And show these kids how legit it is
Shit is real I used to steal but now I own several businesses
So where's your witness that you claim to have
Sayin' that I'm takin' half, extortin' New York and not payin' tax?
I'm layin' back, playin' the role, playin' the low
But it's the same ol' Joe so don't get K.O.D
Hey yo, I'm gonna fry for what I never did
Or catch a heavy bid, why don't they just let a nigga live?
Why do I end up in so much shit?
I done came way too far to be callin' it quits
Jake wanna lock me up even though I'm legit
They can't stand to see a young brother's pockets get thick
Why do I end up in so much shit?
I done came way too far to be callin' it quits
Jake wanna lock me up even though I'm legit
They can't stand to see a young brother's pockets get thick
What would you do
If the vicious enemy suddenly started comin' at you
Just an average kid who paid my dues
Wasn’t born Hardcore, I was just like you
Life treats everybody like they’re all the same
Punks, skins and Hardcore kids, let’s put them all to shame
We’ve always been locked out
They’ve always put us down, Whoa
We’ve always been locked out
They’ve always put us down
Tonight we’re gonna show ‘em - gonna run this town
Set our sights on punk, we were living on the streets
New York City winters, it was no mean feat
I don’t take it for granted that I’m standing here today
Believe me when I say that I share this stage
We’ve always been locked out
They’ve always put us down, Whoa
We’ve always been locked out
They’ve always put us down
Tonight we’re gonna show ‘em - gonna run this town
[x2]
Tonight we’re gonna show ‘em - gonna run this town [x2]
Fight! Fight! The enemy
Stand together, you and me
Fight! Fight! The enemy
Fight! Fight! The enemy
Stand together, you and me
We gotta fight! Fight! The enemy
We’ve always been locked out
They’ve always put us down, Whoa
We’ve always been locked out
They’ve always put us down
Tonight we’re gonna show ‘em - gonna run this town
[x2]
So far dishonest as the day is long
Im sorry so I'll go now
But I love you so it wont be long
And the spectres in the masonary remind us of the things that might have been
Isn't it time you washed your face
It looks like a burnt out fireplace
And I am awash with memories
And worrying complexities
But in time (in time)
You'll find it very scary
It's hard to live respectfully
The Enemy as I know it is right inside my head
The Enemy as I know it is right inside my head
Everyones still all over the place
And not to humble to embrace
And oh my gosh the memories
But your arrogance perplexes me
Now this time (this time)
I shouldn't be so lary
Just try to live respectfully
The Enemy as I know it is right inside my head
The Enemy as I know it is right inside my head
So are you giving it a shot now
And it all came back and you did a little turn now
Well they didn't like that
Are you going to give it up for?
(And the spectres in the masonary remind us of the things that might have been)
All you need's a gentle heart
To see you through endless dark
All you need's a gentle heart
To see you through endless dark
The Enemy as I know it is right inside my head
The Enemy as I know it is right inside my head
The Enemy as I know it is right inside my head
I know it's true but I guess nobody has to tell you
I don't always listen and I talk too much
I think I'm in tune when I'm out of touch
Baby
Don't tell me I've done it again
There's a tear on your face with my name on it
And at this moment it must be hard to see
but I am not the enemy
Chorus:
Lay your defenses down
I'll put my arms around you
put your arms around me
Baby I'm on your side
Someday I'll get it right
How can I make you see
I'm not the enemy
I don't call when I'm comin' home late
And there's three little words that are hard for me to say
I'm not so good at all those little things
But baby I am not the enemy
Chorus
Lay your defenses down
This ain' no battleground
How can I make you see
I finally found myself
I tried to erase all this hate from my body
I tried to end all the lies all the pain that I caused everyone
But it all seemed so fucking useless
I can't forgive
And I can't forget
Don't you know who the fuck I am
I'm the enemy
I've lived a life of regret
I've had this burden of guilt suffocating
It's time to shed this disguise
And it's time to rise and destroy
Everyone in my fucking path
I can't forgive
And I can't forget
Don't you know who the fuck I am
I'm the enemy
Take a good look at me
I'm your enemy
Don't try to make amends
There's just no need
To pretend It will all be OK
You can try to run
And you can try to hide
But it's all fucking pointless
I can't forgive
And I can't forget
Don't you know who the fuck I am
I'm the enemy
A cry of pain and shout
The call of war is out
Roaring guns throughout the night
Gothic lines stare in fright
Bodies burn and ash from flame
Treaties here won’t save the pain
Chorus:
The enemy…the enemy’s around
The enemy…taking more ground
The enemy…the enemy is here
The enemy…the enemy is fear
A deserter of the field
Is shot as he yields
Courage for the damned
Who’s bodies return to sand
Chorus:
The enemy…the enemy’s around
The enemy…taking more ground
The enemy…the enemy is here
The enemy…the enemy is fear
Be strong thru the battle
And not a spoil of war
Those who retreat
Suffer evermore
A wound is a blessing
Though you feel pain
Cowards die slow
Heroes don’t go…
You’re winning the battle
But loosin’ the war
Look at your allies
Fearing the sword
Alone in the dark
A soldiers last mark
A violent life
A cut-throats knife…
Heading north th race is on
Reach the alps before they come
Be brave and hold your guns
Get ready the charge is on…
Music: M. Caro
Lyrics: J. Garcia
A cry of pain and shout

THE END IS NEAR THE EARTH IS GONE!!!
There were years in my way
I was thinking it over
Now I'm running for cover
Finally
I'm so hung up on things, and the pain that pride brings
We're just following no one down the well
Better times than this
The first snow to fall, harbor
Two lovers locked in a full embrace
All these things
I come in late with no surprise
You're always standing at the door with those angry eyes
You stayed up late just to start this fight
But my ears are getting tired I think ill call this a night
You keep on talking but I'm not listening
I'll be the first to say I'm sorry just to be this to end
You keep on talking but I'm not listening
I'll be the first to say I'm sorry just to be this to end
I know that its strange that straight to this very day
I'll be the only one to say that I'm sorry without you
You know that its real don't make it a big deal
I'll be the only one to say that I'm sorry without you
You're always chiming in with your this and that
Your crying at my door like a pussy cat
I thought that it was over and that was that
But you insist to persist me
Irrational enemy
You keep on talking but I'm not listening
I'll be the first to say I'm sorry just to be this to end
You keep on talking but I'm not listening
I'll be the first to say I'm sorry just to be this to end
I know that its strange that straight to this very day
I'll be the only one to say that I'm sorry without you
You know that its real don't make it a big deal
I'll be the only one to say that I'm sorry without you
Appreciate validate sleeping with the enemy
You?ll never take me
You?ll never break me
You?ll never take me, take me
No friendship left to tie or bind
The black clouds over summer skies
How can you fucking live with yourself
Overdose in lies will be your end
I don?t care what you say
You mean nothing to me
Please God will you save me
From this hate inside?
I feel it start to change me
I don?t feel alive
Hurt you close, you realize
I?m the window in your suicide
How can you breath or live with yourself
Overdose in lies will be your end
I don?t care what you say
You mean nothing to me
Please God will you save me
From this hate inside?
I feel it start to change me
I don?t feel alive
I don?t feel alive
There?s nothing left inside
Please God will you save me
I don?t feel alive
I see right through you
I see right through you
I see right through you
I see right through you
Please God will you save me
From this hate inside?
I feel it start to change me
I don?t feel alive
I don?t feel alive
There?s nothing left inside
Please God will you save me
I don?t feel alive
We've become strangers
Walking a strange line
In time
Out of step
Out of line
It happened in stages
I was changing
I was changing without you
And I'm Falling away
I'm falling away now
And I'm sorry darling
But I've broken it down
And I need to see this through
Chorus:
And how did I become the enemy?
Thought this was everything you wanted from me
Have I become what you feared
Should I disappear this time
How did I become the enemy?
Verse 2:
'Cause I was your angel
Talking a good game
The same one you taught me to play
You kept me in cages
With gilded spaces
Too small for me to stay
Now I'm falling away
Falling away now
And I'm sorry darling
But I've broken it down
And I need to see this through
Chorus:
So how did I become the enemy?
Thought this was everything you wanted from me
Have I become what you feared
Should I disappear this time
How did I become the enemy?
Bridge:
How did I break you down
I let you in and you fucked me around
I tried my best you should know
You should have let me go
So how did I become the enemy?
Thought this was everything you wanted from me
Chorus:
And how did I become the enemy?
Thought this was everything you wanted from me
Have I become what you feared
Should I disappear this time
This time
This time
How did I become the enemy?
This time
This time
Shine the light upon me again
For I have spoken many words
Words that fly frequently past the ears
Of the myopic individual
Dreams of a nation nourished in time
Left to die upon a desert of lies
I'm trying to incite a riot within
'Coz all is broken and barren
Beneath the surface of skin
See, the cancer is in us
Look away and all is over
Undivided, undecided man
Would you let me in
Before it's too late to live?
Break away from comfort
And security and sin
Within us is the enemy
Comfort breeds the lazy in a bed
Sores are bleeding cold indifference
Seek into the hours of your life
Have you ever realized the lack of sacrifice
So tap into the core of your own
Remember fire burning in your name
Every moment passes us
Like ashes in the wind
Fleeting away
Shine the light upon me again
I wanna break free
Break free from these chains
I am locked up in shame now
Shine the light upon me again
I wanna break free
Break free from these chains
I am locked up in
[Chorus:]
If you think you got it
Then what the fuck do you expect you’re gonna do
When you’re caught up with regrets and all you think you got is you
Can you forgive them, this enemy
Good pain felt once
Good screams (scream louder)
This type of poison only fills you with desire
But the world will never change in the way it’s rearranging
So then it’s up to you
Once more time scream how you feel about it
[Chorus]
Bad things will come
Good things come after
This time of hate and pain just fuels you’re empty power
But things will never change in the way they’re rearranging
The change is up to you
Bring the change
Funny how we see eachother everyday
You can finish any line I'm gunna say
and your the first one that I call on for a point of
view
I'm always down with your ladyfriends
and im here to the end and back again
Much you dont know about
there's one thing that I keep from you
My mind is making no sense
I live a life of pretense
I'm the queen of patience for you
I go out of my way
to help you find what your looking for
just to show you the new improved me
Hold your hand when your restless
I'm tied to secrecy
but I go tingly and warm inside
and I hope you remember me well
when your in with the enemy
every now and then when I'm out with you
I try to drop a hint or a massive clue
tho every part of my body says it's a waste of time
I could turn around now, but I don't know
I'm in love and I don't wan't the antidote
All I wanna do is make you open your eyes and read the
signs
My mind is making no sense
I live a life of pretense
I'm the queen of patience for you
I go out of my way
to help you find what your looking for
just to show you the new improved me
Hold your hand when your restless
I'm tied to secrecy
but I go tingly and warm inside
and I hope you remember me well
when your in with the enemy
Get out of my way
Get out of my way yeah
Get out of my way
Get out of my way yeah
I go out of my way
to help you find what your looking for
just to show you the new improved me
Hold your hand when your restless
I'm tied to secrecy
but I go tingly and warm inside
and I hope you remember me well
when your in with the enemy
I go out of my way
to help you find what your looking for
just to show you the new improved me
Hold your hand when your restless
I'm tied to secrecy
but I go tingly and warm inside
and I hope you remember me well
