What an enemy
You became to me
Lived a fantasy
An illusion
Built scenery
Played to the gallery
like so many we
Never could agree
All the pain that I
Had to hide inside
Made me realize
I was starved
Tried so hard to be
Anyone but me
Everyone could see
So, I've opened my eyes
I'm no longer waiting for a miracle
Hold my head up high, the future's now
Though I was colorblind
I read the warning signs
And put the past behind
Down the gutter
Now I finally see
That the enemy
is both in you and me
Yeah, I've opened my eyes
I'm no longer waiting for a miracle
Both feet on the ground, my future's now
No use in waiting for a miracle
Every January 16th, it's "The Dreamer, The Dreamer."
And all of you say, "I have a dream; The Dreamer."
And what did he dream?It stuck him right there.
And little black boys, and little white girls
will one day hold hands together.
Shit.
Is that where it's at?Is that where it's at now?
Them little blacks hands are yours.
You can't hold the black brothers' hands?
But you gonna grow old holdin' crackers' hands
before you hold each other's hands?
You gonna walk with your enemy
before you learn to walk with one another?
How sick can you be?
(Enemy)
Where you gonna go when the brothers wanna bust a shot
where you gonna go when I wanna kill bloodclot
Supercat said that the ghetto red hot

god will survive, him protect the civilized
who really cares if the enemy lives or dies?
not me, not me
me never eat from the tree with the apple
I'd rather have a Snapple
do you know where you're going to
do you know where you're runnin from
scared of the sun, I live in the sun
You shrivel up like a raisin
and burn like the blunt that I'm blazin
Ku Klux Klan scared of my nutty beats
cause them nutty beats equal bloody sheets

Enemies, enemy runnin from the G

Where you gonna run when God wanna do ya?
J. Edgar Hoover, I wish I woulda knew ya

through the fire, through the fire that will please us
I know that Farrakhan is your baby Jesus
devil don't you know I'm a soldier?
in God's name and the baby claim I'm gonna hold ya
like Folger's Crystals feds
I'ma pick your ass like Juan Valdez

you don't care if me have a heart attacka
you don't care if me get car jacka
you don't care cause you're nothing but a cracka
now it's Judgement Day, and Allah'll never play
"freedom got an AK," them Guerilla say
Bobby Seale said, "please make it rough, bro"
when God give the word, me herd like the buffalo
through your neighborhood, watch me blast
tribe of Shabazz, get in that ass
you shoulda took heed of my word and became a friend of me

Now I change my style up, my style up,bodies pile up

West L.A., what the hell can I say?
niggas wanna play, each and every day

rougher than the roughest rough muthafucka, had enough muthafucka?
handcuff this muthafucka with the duct tape, tie it to the bumper
grab his bitch, dump her, cause nobody wanna hump her
they call me Thumper cause I thump til it hurt
knock your dick in the dirt, puttin in work
Master Farad Muhammad comin like a comet
when they see em, they all start to vomit
1995, Elijah is alive
Lewis Farrakhan, NOI
Bloods and Crips and little ol me
[Ill Bill:]
A general can never live with the shame of defeat
Play the position the same way in the street, labeled a creep
Raised in the ways of the deep thinkers at the same time
I learned the most valuable things
From an uncle leaving syringes stuck in his veins
Heroin dreams, cocaine wishes
Seen a dope fiedn suck a dog's dick for a fix and
It's twisted and sick on this immaculate planet on which we live
That's why I keep a black bag of ammonia by my side ever since
Hollow tip shells, one in the chamber
Sign my name in blood, smudgen the paper
Too many crab motherfuckers and haters
Looking at me like I fucked their moms
Till they wind up hog tied in the trunks of their cars
It ain't no sunshine, I can smell the jealousy and envy
You're thinking my glass is half full, I'm thinking it's half empty
I think above the law, surpass insanity
Smear your blood on the wall like the Manson family
Wtahc your mouth you don't know me homie
Ill Bill, inappropriate like holding a baby, smoking a bogie
Blow your brains out, leave you with an empty head
Cause I'm a muthafucking villain like MC Ren
[Chorus x2: Ill Bill]
I live the same life you lead, breathe the same air you breathe
We similar, but no, you my enemy
Bang the fuck out in the street, hold the block down with heat
We similar, but no, you my enemy
[Raekwon:]
From every valley all the way to the valley is where allies live
With 40 Calies, winging drugs, selling Denalies
Where coke comes in big ol trucks, Dickies, white tees
Authentic Chucks, stash it in the boards for the cause
Alot of rap killers is lurking, base heads chirping
All these police workers got they hats backwords, and black hoods
Guard it like the Pope up in Rome
Slight cough, rhyming through foam, pajama sets, talking to Tone
I live through my family, civilians and loved ones
Take drugs and slay for my paper
Working under some fakers
I recognize the power of loyalty, come for the wants and needs
Everything else black, self explanatory
Take it back to Timexes and Outies
Push it through 1-39th, seeing Spanish, Jesus and Ralphie
You know who we came, it's holding besides breaded was lead
Go head, search us, guns is by the shoulders
You counting every one in back of the store
Different whores will jump out, different walls smelling like cum
Nowadays niggas know hustling
Yeah, go head, tell it wrong and get jinxed by the FBI
Word to every kingpin's wish
Move humble and hard, play the right men, slay the right bitch
Through the mix of concurrent drama
We honor niggas that died, got trapped up and fell behind karma
This real nigga lecture his destiny
Play the perfect hand of perfection, everything's a blessing at heart
I sat back like the giant from start, play number two position learn
To listen, gamble insmarts
Now we pushing from town to town
Realizing credit's the shit, but can't trust no niggas around
I try to establish life on my own, blaze a hundred bones
And think, I'm painting by the second, it's on
Yo, call the flag of a Muslim son, who base his life on guns and murder
Free business, handling chumps
Now alot of niggas is gone, sleeping on the Rican on the catwalk
Hump on his leg, back on his own
A wise man set up for failure
[Interlude: Raekwon]
Yo, yo, yo, untie him man
Well, it comes as no surprise,
don't you realize you can't back up deceit with more sad alibis
Because you never are to blame, drivin' you insane cause
when your words are gone the damage still remains
You don't wanna believe that you're human just like me
(By blaming me you gain control)
I'm not the enemy
(You want a scapegoat for your crimes)
You're just like me, me, me
And I'm not the enemy
You're just like me
It seems impossible to me,
a tragic comedy that I'm the villain in your twisted fantasy
But to me it's not a game drivin' me insane,
we're all just victims in your sinister charade
You don't wanna believe that you're human just like me
(By blaming me you gain control)
And I'm not the enemy
(You want a scapegoat for your crimes)
You're just like me, me, me
And I'm not the enemy
You're just like me
You don't wanna believe cause you're human just like
You're human just like me
(By blaming me you gain control)
I'm not the enemy
(You want a scapegoat for your crimes)
You're just like me, me, me
After we spoke I had a dream that I broke
The teeth from a mouth of a snake
That I choked on the teeth
They were mine all along
I picked up the pieces when I woke
Put them in a boat made of things that I don't want to see
I blew on the sail
Watched it drift out to sea
The further it drifted the closer it came to me
I can't explain
So I took it apart in a billion boxes
There was only one thing
You might think I'm your enemy
But that don't make you mine
And all I have now is above thee
I wish that you'd stop trying
Oh, please stop lying
Stop la la la la la la la
La la la la la...
The hatred in the box then I locked
The strongest one I knew
I buried it all, grew a tree without thorns
Sat beneath the shade
You might think I'm your enemy
But that don't make you mine
And all I have now is above thee
I wish that you'd stop trying
Oh please stop lying
Please stop la la la la la la
La la la la la...
A little piece of everything
That's ever been or will
Is shining for you still
Look up
Start from start, and try again
To see it through the smoke
And the mirrors that you've broke
For love
And it feels like something just stole my spirit
Snook up on me when I couldn't hear it
But I can see the enemy, he's done alright for me
And somewhere inside of me
I can see my enemy
Pick a window, pick a sight
It's just a choice you make
Another little break in us
Time and time and time again
You see it through the cracks
Bitter words you like is enough
And it feels like something just stole my spirit
Snook up on me when I couldn't hear it
But I can see the enemy, he's done alright for me
And somewhere inside of me
I can see my enemy
But I can see the enemy, he's done alright for me
And somewhere inside of me
If I died. would you notice?
Would you even care?
Take everything that
you want from me
Strip me till you get your fill
spilled the pill to kill the pain
I cannot fight the you taking over me
Ride the tide wide and slide tight right inside my vein
Sign me up a 12'step recovery
Keep me high by and by
scream a lullaby to stay
I need a shot of something to set me free
Pound a round
drown your sound sleep
the day away
And it really don't take that much to bleed
It really don't take that much
She is my bad habit
feels like my own disease
Sleeping with the enemy
She is my bad habit
Consuming all of me
Sleeping with the enemy
So throw me on the wagon.
I'm going to break
Adore me more on the floor and
score the pain you inflict
I'm running out of my pills that I can take
Forsake my fake bellyache
I think I'm going to be sick
Anticipate the rush coming over me
Control my roll, stole my soul
and I took two to the head
I got to have what you keep giving to me
Call your bluff tuff enough and
I'm better off dead
It don't lake that much to bleed
It really don't take that much
Taking over. infecting me
My veins are filled with her
She's slowly killing
Taking over, infecting me
My veins are filled with her
She's slowly killing me
It really don't lake that much to bleed
and She keeps my ring upon her finger and a knife up her sleeve
When her lips are always loaded and she's gunning for me
I want everything to be perfect
Pick you apart at the seams
Drown you out if I don't want to hear you
Crush every single one of your dreams
I'm going under the water it's pulling me down
I can't help myself
I'm my own worst enemy enemy enemy
It'll be the end of me, end of me, end of me
I wanted to go the distance
I met everything with resistance
I pulled the pin out on the grenade
Burned down everything I had made
As I struggle in here I see angels near
Can't help myself
I'm my own worst enemy enemy enemy
It'll be the end of me, end of me, end of me
And the coast is clear on me, clear on me, clear on me
I'm my own worst enemy enemy
I'm an open field
I put on armour
Strap on my boots
Look around to see which weapons I'll choose
I'm going for medals, decoration
I'm pulling out from my lonely station
So I'll call you if I need help
I'll call you if I need help
I'll call you if I need help
'M my own worst enemy enemy enemy
It'll be the end of me, end of me, end of me
And the coast is clear on me, clear on me, clear on me
I'm my own worst enemy enemy
Enemy in an open field
Just leave me alone here (x2)
Just leave me alone
Alone here
Just leave me alone here (x3)
Step up to me - Step up to me
You wanna be a big time player - it's not to be
Look at all the snide ass - actin like a wise ass
I'll fuck up your face and you'll never look back
So when you fall to the ground
And finally get back to reality
And no one at all is around
So tell me how does it feel to be the enemy?
Step up to me - Step up to me
Step up to me - Step up to me
You wanna be a big time player - it’s not to be
Look at your face - look at your name
It's funny you’re a loser with only yourself to blame
Cut your fucking hair now - scared of all the stare downs
You wanna be like me cause it's real
So you steal on your way to fame
Never gonna be - never gonna see
Your name in lights - you can always dream what ‘cha could've been
Clean up my shit - you look like a dick
Step to unemployment - step
Step! Step up to me – step up
You are, enemy
You are my hated enemy
I am enemy
Number one rated enemy
I'm a labeled enemy
I am your mortal enemy
My actions enemy
Make me your bitter enemy
All the world around enemy
They're tearing up the ground enemy
They're drawn in by the sound
Enemy, enemy I must eliminate my Enemy
Your people, enemy
My people's hated enemy
What are you, enemy
Though a created enemy
Terminate the, enemy
Eradicate the hated enemy
I am an enemy
My very greatest enemy
You try to tell me that you love life
Then find another way to kill life
Wanting, love life
Needing, kill life
Wanting, love life
Needing, kill life
If you told me something that wasn't true, you do
Stop and have a look just exactly what you, you do
Did I go too fast, Did I go too slow
I know something that you might want to know
Will you wait while I answer your call?
I know you're the enemy
Just need some time to escape from it all
This could be the end of me
Since you found another new place to hide, I smiled
Set apart from all the things inside, deny
If I went to fast, did I go to slow?
I know something that you don't want to know
Will you wait while I answer your call?
I know you're the enemy
Just need some time to escape from it all
This could be the end of me
The end of me...
oooooooooooooooo...
If I went too fast, did I go too slow?
I know something that you don't want to know
Will you wait while I answer your call?
I know you're the enemy
Just need some time to escape from it all
This could be the end of me
Will you wait while I answer your call?
I know I know I know I know
Just need some time to escape from it all
Enemy, all over my body
She's wrapped up
She's wrapped up in alcohol
She's wrapped up
She's wrapped up in caffeine
She's my enemy
She's my enemy
She's my enemy
She's my enemy
I woke up, she was painting the lattice
She can't see through her mother's magnets
She can't see, she breathes electricity
She's my enemy
She is my enemy
She's my enemy
She's my enemy
She's my enemy
She's my enemy, enemy, enemy, enemy, enemy
She's my enemy, enemy
I woke up, she was painting the lattice
She can't see through her mother's magnets
She can't see, she breathes electricity
She's my enemy
She is my enemy
She's my enemy
She's my enemy
She's my enemy
She's my enemy, enemy, enemy, enemy, enemy
She's my enemy, enemy, enemy, enemy, enemy
She's my enemy, enemy, enemy, enemy
The work day's done it's time to go home
It's time to make decisions I must make alone
For there's a battlefield between my home and me
And I must pass directly by the enemy
There's flashing lights straight ahead
The neon signs of the barrooms turn the sky blood red
I search for strenght inside of me
I'm passing through the homeland of the enemy
Like a dreaming man I'm in an open door
Then all the faded faces remind me I'm at war
I turn to leave and tremble when I see
The waiting patient eyes of the enemy
Their eyes shine brike they strike me blind
It's too late to run away surrenders on my mind
There's tears at home by now she's missin' me
Sometimes I can tell early in the day
Sometimes I can sense in an uncanny way
When things aren't going right
It looks like just another lonely night
Wake me when it's over shake me when it's done
Maybe when the sun comes up I'll find a place to run
So don't lay there like a fool
'Cause all you have to do is call me
(Chorus)
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say you're lonely tonight
'Travel 'round the world seen a million girls
I know I've been around nothin' gets me down
'Cause there's someone out there just like you
Someone's out there just like me too
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say you're lonely tonight
Baby don't let it don't let it get ya
Just say the word and I'll be your cover
I'm gonna try to get there today
Call me and tell me
You don't need another day
Lonely night (Lonely tonight
Sometimes I can tell you don't have to say
Sometimes I can sense in an uncanny war
When things aren't going right
It looks like just another lonely
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say you're lonely tonight
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say you're lonely tonight
[japanese bonus track]
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 NME, NME!
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
You're no enemy - be my friend
I took a ride to meet an enemy
October light shown bright through the windshield
Right into my eyes where I was silent riding shotgun
Chewing on some sugar free gum
Parallel park and pay the meter
If I die before I leave tell her I'll never leave her
I am fine just a little broken up
OK my nerves have never been so shot
Can't get this shit off my mind
I just want to be alright
So just tell me nothing's wrong
Then get undressed and spend the night
The autumn sun burning logic in my brain
I'm asking why there is pleasure when there's pain
I'm here to pay for my mistakes in a humiliating manner
If there is a next time I'll cover up
I feel alone I feel shaky and uncertain
A kind man shakes my hand and draws the curtain
In a word he saves my life and then I exit out the enter door and smile
Can't get this shit off my mind
I just want to be alright
So just tell me nothing's wrong
Then get undressed and spend the night
I took a ride to meet an enemy
I faced a fear of mine and shivered but didn't blink
I took a ride to meet an enemy to end all the madness
And now I know that I'll be fine
I am fine
Can't get this shit off my mind
I just want to be alright
So just tell me nothing's wrong
Then get undressed and spend the night
You alone should know
The shit sticks fast
Weighing up the consequences
You made up your mind
To kick my ass
And I was left with no defences
I'm a little screwed around inside
And you think I don't remember
But I can't forget the things you did, can I?
I'm your enemy
I'm your enemy
I'm your enemy
I'm your enemy
Sugar faces, plastic smiles and all
Nothing seems to pacify me
People watch and wait for me to fall
Go ahead and fucking try me
See the features crack into a grin
And I'm glad you think it's funny
I'm coming back for something more
And I'm not laughing, am I?
I'm your enemy
I'm your enemy
I'm your enemy
I'm your enemy
Never forget that
Fighting against the one I see
Mirror reveals my worst enemy
Zero tolerance for weakness and remorse
Breaking point reached long ago
Some things inside should be left alone
Our intelligence too low to deal
The hell inside
Darkness ate all the light
With sorrow as my guide
I deny you
Soon it´s impossible to deal
Make difference between
And to separate
World of darkness from the light
It´s dying inside
Black and white before my eyes
No emotions
Touch as cold as ice
Caught in the chaos of life
Didn't know my own mind, did you?
Could you feel me drifting away?
If you did you didn't say, did you?
Locked in a world of your own
Beyond my control, somehow
Couldn't hear what I'm trying to say
You wouldn't listen anyway, not now.
We never really took the time
Only want to make it right
I wish I didn't but I miss you
If the lines are drawn
And the flags unfurl would you fight for me?
Or would you be my enemy?
When the conflict calls
In this tug of war
Will you be my strength?
Or would you be my enemy?
If I lose my way
On this battle ground
Will you reach for me?
Or would you be my enemy?
Be my enemy
If the lines are drawn
And the flags unfurl would you fight for me?
Or would you be my enemy?
Be my enemy
I can breathe without you by my side
I believed everything we did was right
I can heal this is just another fight
Another fight
We never really took the time
Only want to make it right
I wish I didnt but I miss you
Everything I wanted to be
got buried in history, like you
Be my enemy, be my enemy
If the lines are drawn
And the flags unfurl would you fight for me?
Or would you be my enemy?
Be my enemy
When the conflict calls
In this tug of war
Will you be my strength?
Or would you be my enemy?
Be my enemy
The scars run deep but I'm gaining ground
In this gift to me there's a strength I've found
Will you stand with me or will you be my enemy?
Be my enemy
The scars run deep but I'm gaining ground
In this gift to me there's a strength I've found
Will you stand with me or will you be my enemy?
I can breathe without you by my side
I believed everything we did was right
I can heal this is just another fight
Another fight
I only want to make it right
Only want to make it right
Only want to make it right
I'm not the enemy
Do you know
we're stuck in the middle
two ways to go
Words inside my head
but you don't wanna know
We've been hurt before
but why can't we let it go
You know I
I've been searching for this love all my life
I can't stand this pain
won't you please tell me why
you still hide away
you don't need to be afraid
I will be waiting here for you to realize
open your heart to me, you'll see it through
my eyes!
If you could read my mind
Nothing I need to say,
You'd never run away!
How can I make you start believing?
that I'm not the enemy!
If you could read my mind
all the things I feel inside
then you'd see
that I'm not the enemy
I'm not the enemy
Do you know
you're the air I breathe and I wanna show
what's inside my head
know that you're not alone
push your fears away
cause I am still holding on
I will be waiting here for you to realize
open your heart to me, you'll see it through
my eyes!
If you could read my mind
Nothing I need to say,
You'd never run away!
How can I make you start believing?
that I'm not the enemy!
If you could read my mind
all the things I feel inside
then you'd see
I'm not the enemy
Cause nothin' feels the same
everytime you say my name
and I need you to know
that we need to make a change
stop playin' these foolish games
I'm not the enemy
If you could read my mind
Nothing I need to say,
You'd never run away
How can I make you start believing?
I'm not the enemy!
If you could read my mind
all the things I feel inside
then you'd see
that I'm not the enemy
Every time the blood runs to my head, I hear the ring
Something to remind me I'm not dead or caught in between
I listen to the voice and what it says, it's never sweet
Something I was born into I guess, living in me
No prize, nothing I pay will make it all alright
Nothing I see will make it lose sight
Nothing I take will make me sleep at night, sleep at night
When I look within I feel like I should be running
Running, running, running
I will never shake this feeling 'till I feel nothing
Nothing, nothing, nothing
I am the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me
Enemy, enemy, enemy
I am the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me
Enemy, enemy, enemy
Every time I take another breath I feel the sting
Everyone around me seems so numb, I feel everything
No prize, nothing I pay will make it all alright
Nothing I see will make it lose sight
Nothing I take will make me sleep at night, sleep at night
When I look within I feel like I should be running
Running, running, running
I will never shake this feeling 'till I feel nothing
Nothing, nothing, nothing
I am the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me
Enemy, enemy, enemy
I am the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me
Enemy, enemy, enemy
Taking my time to untangle the wires
And stare into my sanity
Dropping the hammer and pulling the trigger
I know now the bullet is me
I am the enemy inside of me
I am the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me
Enemy, enemy, enemy
I am the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me
Enemy, enemy, enemy, I'm the enemy
I should've looked back sometime alone
I should've looked back sometime alone
I should've looked back sometime alone, a long time ago
I should've looked back sometime alone
I should've looked back sometime alone
I should've looked back sometime alone, a long time ago
I have made you an enemy
I have been my own enemy
I am asking for you to forgive me for everything
If you don't you're worthy of compassion
If you do you're a better man than I am
If you don't know you're my family
Enemy, I'm sorry, oh, enemy
Family forgive me, enemy
If you don't you're worthy of compassion
If you do you're a better man than I am
If you do you're a better man than I am
Head in my hands on a cold and lonely night
Blood in my veins working hard to keep me right
In this darkness hell is raging all around
Nothing new, same old hatred we have found
No mind to let you go... Would you do the same for me?
Enemy... why you fight so hard?
I'm just a player in your game
Broken memories dancing on the wall
Pictures of another time
Painting nightmares and sharing alibis
Does this darkness make you blind?
Enemy... why you run so far?
Fighting till your dying day
Enemy... Covering your scars
Why have you lost your way?
Enemy... why you run so far?
Fighting till your dying day
Enemy... Covering your scars
my lover is my enemy
and I can`t do a thing
giving just a little...
but taking everything
no I don`t show
hey I don`t know
maybe I just can`t let go
my lover is my nightmare
stuck in my bed
feeling just so good about it
but she`s gonna regret
no I don`t show
hey I don`t know
Now as the days are coming so much shorter
Your journey is slowly reaching the end
Cold wind reminds you of me
As you crawl on this frozen soil
Life filled with hate
I am leaving the scars that make you bleed
The bloodred tears
Now coldness reaches your flesh
And frost creeps into your soul
Again I drift to my past life so fake, so wrong
I am the creation of lies what you told
And I'm feeding the pain I never search for
Life filled with hate
I am leaving the scars that make you bleed
The bloodred tears
You start to sound like a broken enemy
-enemy-enemy-
Leave me alone
Are you friend or enemy
Leave me alone
Nothing's ever what is seems
Leave me alone, enemy
I knew right from the start
That I would not be free
Just by leaving all behind
But I just had to try
And spread my wings again
Recalling kings of times gone by
Can you see the flame has died
Do you ever wander why
Take a hard look at me now
Leave me alone
Reflections of a stormy sea
Leave me alone
Affection slowly sets me free
Leave me alone, enemy
Remember yesterday, when skies were always blue
And no mountain was to high
Day by day i am, returning with desire
Recalling gods of times gone by
Can you see the flame has died
Do you ever wander why
Take a hard look at me now
Leave me alone
Reflections of stormy sea
Leave me alone
Affection slowly sets me free
Leave me alone
Are you friend or enemy
Leave me alone
Nothing's ever what is seems
Leave me alone, enemy
[solo]
Leave me alone
Reflections of stormy sea
Leave me alone
Affection slowly sets me free
Leave me alone
Are you friend or enemy
Leave me alone
Nothing's ever what is seems
He sells me just as a commodity
Another sell out for the company
Another soul down in his resume
Another profit for my enemy
Enemy
The enemy
Enemy
He hunts and mates within the industry
His ego swells with opportunity
His motivation is the royalty
Another profit for my enemy
Enemy
The Enemy
Enemy
This wont destroy me
This wont destroy me
This wont destroy me
This my ultimate destiny
This wont destroy me
This wont destroy me
This wont destroy me
Fuck the record industry
He kills off all originality
He strips it down to label policy
He markets me for mass quantity
Another profit for my enemy
I've had it up to here
With all of yer lies.
I've had enough
Of the people I despise.
Yer so impatient,
Yer so deranged,
I'm gonna end yer life,
It's already arranged!
I got an enemy
And that enemy is you!
I'm planning murder
I'm planning murder for you!
Go get an army,
I wanna war!
I'm gonna see your teeth on the floor!
I'm gonna hit you when you're goin' through the door!
I'm gonna kick you when you're half dead on the floor!
[Chorus]
Do you remember me
You can't see the things
That make me who I am
You'll never understand
And I gotta keep moving, you're living off my sweat
Moving, the devil's on my back
And these are the days that I dreamed about
And you're always there to remind me
You're my enemy
All that we had has gone away
There are times that fade away
But you'll still be my enemy
The friend you had in me
You turned on so easily
I'm sad to see you go
At least now I know
And I see clearly now
You tried to bleed me
And I see clearly now
You took the first shot with a bullet you created
Constructed from lies and words I never said
You boil the blood beneath my skin
The truth is on my side
You weigh me down and pull me to the ground
As if you are supposed to be my enemy
Cause every part of you tries to ignore the truth
You turned on me so I’ll make you my enemy
Now I'm in this war as a country you invaded
I kept to myself ‘fore you came charging in
And never bite the hand that feeds you
I swear I’ll bring you down
You weigh me down and pull me to the ground
As if you are supposed to be my enemy
Cause every part of you tries to ignore the truth
You turned on me so I’ll make you my enemy
You have declared a war that you could never win
You have declared a war that I will always win
(I’ll bring you down)
You weigh me down and pull me to the ground
As if you are supposed to be my enemy
You weigh me down and pull me to the ground
As if you are supposed to be my enemy
Cause every part of you tries to ignore the truth
I'm tripping downstairs because I feel the music coming.
To hear a laugh from you makes me feel like I am flowing.
I've placed a belief in myself that I've left behind quite quickly.
If you can't market me then I see you'll see the end of me.
The end of me is the enemy,
Yeah the enemy is gonna be the end of me.
Cause I'm crossing a road now and I feel my feet start to wander.
And all that I've learned now, seems to be too much to squander.
I've placed a belief in myself that I've left behind quite quickly.
If you can't market me then I see you'll see the end of me.
The end of me is the enemy,
Yeah the enemy is gonna be the end of me.
Cause I'm crossing a road now and I feel my feet start to wander.
And all that I've learned now, seems to be too much to squander.
I've placed a belief in myself that I've left behind quite quickly.
If you can't market me then I see you'll see the end of me.
The end of me is the enemy,
mother oh mother, nothing is wrong i got this black eye from falling down i sware no one pushed me around father oh father, did I let you down i know you thought we had a fight injustice is haunting in the night
enemy, can we end this peacefully? he told me we can end this peacefully
sister oh sister, who made you cry give me the word and I'll make them pay give me the word and I'll kill them today
enemy, can we end this peacefully? he told me we can end this peacefully brother oh brother, I'll push down your gun
i know you could never hurt someone put down your aim, you can never run
In the roses
In the spring
I remember
There was a time
I wasn’t afraid of anything
But with the lilacs
And the rain
One day you went away
I remember
I forgot everything
My mother’s always trying to tell me
How to be grateful how to believe
My father’s always trying to say
Baby you’re beautiful in every way
My lover’s always got me in his arms
Trying to protect me keep me from harm
So why do I always have to be
My worst my own worst enemy
In the shadows in the grays
In the lonely
There is a place
Where we can all hide away
But in the windows of the soul
There is nowhere we can go
If we keep running
Running from our destiny
My mother’s always trying to tell me
How to be grateful how to believe
My father’s always trying to say
Baby you’re beautiful in every way
My lover’s always got me in his arms
Trying to protect me keep me from harm
So why do I always have to be
My worst my own worst enemy
You say I walk on water
You say I walk on the moon
But it’s never enough
(no it’s never enough no it’s never enough)
You say I’m only human
It’s all in my head
But it’s never enough
(no it’s never enough no it’s never enough)
One day I’ll find
My alibi…
My mother’s always trying to tell me
How to be grateful how to believe
My father’s always trying to say
Baby you’re beautiful in every way
My lover’s always got me in his arms
Trying to protect me keep me from harm
So why do I always have to be
The words you used were mine, used a thousand times
Doesn't make them what i've bled
I hated you, I loathed you
Though felt, I never let the words begin to spill
Make me sick 'till I can't breathe
Never want to be your enemy
Silence me, so I can't be,
Never want to be your enemy
I walk the
High road away from you
God knows what I've been through
This is the life I have, this is the life I choose
I walked away, the high road away from you
Walk away, walk away, you made an enemy
I never, I never wanted, I never wanted to poison or burn through
Labeled malcontent, by bastards of decent, excuse this place I stand, words are to elude you
Make me sick 'till I can't breathe
Never want to be your enemy
Silence me, so I can't be,
Never want to be your enemy
I walk the
High road away from you
God knows what I've been through
This is the life I have, this is the life I choose
I walked away, the high road away from you
Walk away, walk away, you made an enemy
Deep inside realize never want to be your enemy
Change me, rearrange me, make me your enemy (Yeah)
Deep inside realize never want to be your enemy (Walk away from)
Change me, rearrange me, make me your enemy (Enemy, yeah)
Deep inside realize never want to be your enemy (Walk away from)
Change me, rearrange me, make me your enemy, your enemy
I walk the
High road away from you
God knows what I've been through
This is the life I have, this is the life I choose
I walked away, the high road away from you
Listen down you little man

And if you come to understand it will be okay
You need to change it
You need to change it now...

I went in killing the sun/I once one
There's a shadow standing right in front of me
I want to save myself from this insanity
I'll try to scream while everyone is talkin'
They're talkin' about how to save themselves from drowning
Away, away
Away away
(you got to...)
Away, away
Away away
You got to...
There's a shadow standing right in front of me
I want to save myself from this insanity
I'll try to scream while everyone is talkin'
They're talkin' about how to save themselves from drowning
You're in my mind
You're in my soul
You're insecure
I'm gonna break you

You're insecure
I'm gonna break you
Start walkin' away now right before you fall
I want to give you what you and I will take control
And try to see how much fear I got within me
I'm tryin' to be a man with a different story
Start walkin' away now right before you fall
I want to give you what you and I will take control
And try to see how much fear I got within me
I'm tryin' to be a man with a different story
You're in my mind
You're in my soul
You're insecure

It's amazing just how much I look like the enemy
His hatred looks so much like the hate inside of me
I've fallen like so many fools my age
Throwing stones at all who cross me
I won't become a victim of my rage
Lord, give me love for the enemy
It's expected that if you swing you'll find me swinging back
The exception is in the greatness I so clearly lack
I will learn to see you where you said you'd be
Enemy!
Not your cross to bear, not your who goes there
Not the need to talk, not the time at all
Not restriction free, not the who to be (not me)
Not a long lost friend, not a lifeless trend
Sick of what you think of me
Stand back instinctively
Take a look then listen to me:
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
Sick of what you think of me
Stand back instinctively
Take a look then listen to me:
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
Not the here nor there, not the hole in the air
Not a story run, not to blame the gun
Not world industry, not pollution free
Not to be ?a rathe?, not to take the bait
Sick of what you think of me
Stand back instinctively
Take a look then listen to me:
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
Sick of what you think of me
Stand back instinctively
Take a look then listen to me:
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
Not a fuckin' freak, not select elite
Not got up tonight, not believe the hype
Not a regular guy, not see eye to I
Not a circumstance, not to miss the chance
Sick of what you think of me
Stand back instinctively
Take a look then listen to me:
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
Sick of what you think of me
Stand back instinctively
Take a look then listen to me:
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
I'm not your enemy
Who? Me?
(Not the grown-up type, not yet see the light
Not know what to do, not enough for you
Not I do not know, not gonna take no more
Show em' one thing used to be
I've become friends with the enemy
Not sure what happened here but everything seems
insincere
I'm digging my own grave
I'm into deep for you to save
So go, just walk away
Save your shit for another day
Sometimes you just can't wait
I'm more than happy to not fit in (with your friends)
I hope you don't make it home
Someday that you'll face it
Cause the world doesn't spin for you
There's not one thing that used be
We were lovers on the run
Heading for adventure
Ruinous and young
We fled across the broken land
Wild, deserted places
And it went out of hand
Watch your back
Stay with me
Someone here could be an enemy
Watch your back
Don't you see
One of us could be the enemy
We seized a house upon a hill
Damp and tainted ceilings
And broken windowsills
Seagulls hanging from the trees
Black and static water
Red and sticky leaves
Watch your back
Stay with me
Someone here could be an enemy
Stay with me
Don't you see
I've got an enemy, he lives right down the street
Last night he egged my house, and toilet papered my trees
This guy sucks at life, but he's good at pissing me off
I can never think of a way to tell him "that's enough"
There are a lot of enemies in this world
There is an enemy for everyone
If you don't believe me, you'll know it's true
When an enemy might pretend,
Before you know, he's (she's) not your friend
You'll find out in the end
I've got an enemy who works with me everyday
He likes to talk a lot, he thinks he knows everything
He only shows respect when he is outta cigarettes
I'm the one who's so obscene
I'm the insect in your dream
Don't tell me you're in contact
Wasting you, can you see?
Don't tell me you're in contact
I can feel you live and breathe
I don't want to be your enemy
It's so hollow
I don't want to be your enemy
It's so hollow
Something's gone behind your eyes
In your head it's televised
Don't tell me I'm not human
Wasting you, can you see?
Don't tell me I'm not human
I don't want to be your enemy
I can feel you live and breathe
It's so hollow
It's so hollow
I don't want to be your enemy
Never wanna be
Never wanna be
Never gonna be
Never wanna be your enemy
Never wanna be
Never wanna be your enemy
Never wanna be
Never gonna be
I'm the one who's so obscene
Don't tell me you're in contact
Stitch me up so perfectly
Wasting you, can you see?
Don't tell me you're in contact
I can feel you live and breathe
I don't want to be your enemy
I don't want to be your enemy
I don't want to be your enemy
It's so hollow
It's so hollow
I don't want to be your enemy
It's so hollow
Never wanna be
Never wanna be your enemy
Never wanna be
Never gonna be
Never wanna be
Never wanna be your enemy
Never wanna be
if i can not decide what i will wake up and look like
the rest of my day is spent tearing me in my departments
left no choice but to do what i didn't think was possible
anchord reality finds me bothered in peices.
enemy decides who i will be
now i'm penalized and lost
can't find the end of me
i've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
charred, broken yellow teeth softened kiss seduces me
can be that easily taken by what is left to see
i know my inner pride is cause for my skin to hive
damaged behaivor leaves me no room for mercy.
enemy decides who i will be
now i'm penalized and lost
can't find the end of me
i've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
i've got one you don't
you let them know
i'm tired
i see you
you're a liar
you felt good.
enemy decides who iwill be
now i'm penalized and lost
can't find the end of me
i've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
can't find the end of me
can't find the end of me
can't find the end of me
can't see the enemy.
Shady day, I'm the prey
It's the rage, I know that you are hunting
Everything, inside of me
Enemy, and you are so damn dirty
Shoot the man, I still stand
I don't care, because I'm not afraid
On the run, got a gun
But I can't erase this pain
Shed my skin, time wears thin
In the end, all I want is to survive this
Everyday, energy, seems to stray
Can't stop this pain
Save me, save me, save me
'Cause I'm running from these things on me
It's in my head, it's in my head
And I suffer from this deadly disease
It's aching, it's aching
Inside of me...
Shady day, I'm the prey
It's the rage, I know that you are hunting
Everything, inside of me
Enemy, and you are so damn dirty
Shoot the man, I still stand
I don't care, because I'm not afraid
On the run, got a gun
But I can't erase this pain!
'Cause I'm running from these things on me
It's in my head, it's in my head
And I suffer from this deadly disease
It's aching, it's aching
Inside of me...
Rising above all
'Cause I am killing over
And I know you
Are going on
Yeah!!
Don't want to burn up
Don't want to hide
I slip away, genocide
Don't want to burn up
Don't want to hide
First time she saw those eyes
A villainous hatred in disguise
They fed her so much lies
Never let go what's inside
For years she walked these streets
Clenched fists and hated the fear.
Ids-empowered with a few words
Not gonna take it anymore
Society had turned its cheek that day
And left her alone in the wake
Of the monster that it had created
It's not herself that she want's to hate
We will not cry in vain
Our power is our pain
We will not be ashamed
We'll fight to the last day
It's but a product of society's fear
Millions abused and killed over the years
Murdered by misogyny
The Ignorance is the enemy
Another object to be owned
Take power from what you control
Just yet another body part
Oh, oh, oh, oh
So bad, I'm so bad, I'm so bad
Can I be honest with you please?
It's really hard for me to speak right now
Girl, I been drinkin' all day
It's been a long week
Can't you tell by my face?
I wanna lose myself between your legs
I wanna make your body shake
Girl, if you drink this with no chase
I promise you'll have nothing to say (nothing to say)
Cause the least I deserve is no conversation
I been working all week
I'd rather be your enemy
Than any friend you think I would be
I'm just tryin' take you home without a word
And, I'm just trying to kiss your neck without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to lay you down without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to get you high without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you numb without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you cum without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you sleep without a word
And, I'm just trying to let you leave without a word
Without a word
Please, please, please (let me, let me, let me)
Let me get what I want this time
I forgot what it feels to regret my sins
I need that old thing back baby
You can help me out baby
You remind me of a feeling that I used to have
So I don't know what to expect from you tonight
But I'm not trying to waste nobody's time
I'm just trying to find material, some inspiration
We can put it in a song, if you want
But the least I deserve is no conversation
I been workin' all week
I'd rather be your enemy
Than any friend you think I would be
I'm just tryin' take you home without a word
And, I'm just trying to kiss your neck without a word
And, I'm just trying to lay you down without a word
And, I'm just trying to get you high without a word
And, I'm just trying to make you numb without a word
And, I'm just trying to make you cum without a word
And, I'm just trying to make you sleep without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to let you leave without a word
Without a word
Please, Please Please (Let me, let me, let me)
Let me get what I want this time
I 'd never fall for a girl like you
I'll never understand what you're going through
But your body rocked and your head game too
You lookin' at my nigga, you can have him too
Cause baby, I ain't cuffin girl, I hope you knew
There ain't nothin' wrong, you can pick and choose
Just don't call tomorrow askin' “what did I do?'
Girl, You know what you did, all to blame is you
Now the least I deserve is no conversation
I been working all week
I'd rather be your enemy
Than any friend you think I would be
I'm just tryin' take you home without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to kiss your neck without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to lay you down without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to get you high without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you numb without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you cum without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you sleep without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to let you leave without a word
You are your own enemy
You are your own enemy
You are your own enemy
You are your own enemy
I can see it in your eyes
The way
You hold the pain inside
Now I know
Oh, I can see it in your eyes
The way you hold the pain inside
I can see it
Creative evolution
Genetic revolution
You are your own enemy
You are your own enemy
You are your own enemy
You are your own enemy
Close your eyes
And take me in
The way you know
Is soon to change
Alive inside
The species grows
The silent fate
Will dominate
You are your own enemy
Creative evolution
I can see it in your eyes
The way
You hold
The pain
Inside
Your mind
The hate
You hold inside
Controls your mind
I see
You are your own enemy
Genetic revolution
The species grows inside your mind
Controls the pain inside
You are your own enemy
You are your own enemy
Close your eyes
And take me in
The way you know
Is soon to change
Alive inside
The species grows
The silent fate
Will dominate
You are your own enemy
Creative evolution
I can see it in your eyes
The way
You hold
The pain
Inside
Your mind
I see
The hate
Inside
It points towards me
You! My nightmare
You! My black air
Without blame I was betrayed
I feel the rage
As a wild gale
Biting all my lanes
I'll tell you bye! With a hand
In my face a big smile
Revenge has begun...
A sea of hate surrounds me
You thrust a dagger on my back
From now on till the end of all times
You! my enemy
Enemy always be...
You don't cross my way because
You are my enemy
Hating your name
Scoring yourself
In your world of lies and shame
I have to fight
Maybe I'm a glutton for pain,
Maybe I just like my life in disarray.
It's too much truth for me to face,
So I move through life at a snail's pace.
Cause I don't want to be without the unlucky one,
Who tried to climb the mountain and let failure come.
So tell me what it is,
Why love's got me so afraid to fall.
I'm my own worst enemy.
I'm my own worst enemy.
Oh, and I'm looking at myself in the mirror,
Why does everything get cloudy?
I thought that it'd be much clearer.
Tell me why do I end up in the same place with a different love,
Choosing the same and over and over with a different face,
Think I've had enough.
Cause I don't want to be without the unlucky one,
Who tried to climb the mountain and let failure come.
So tell me what it is,
Why love's got me so afraid to fall.
I'm my own worst enemy.
I'm my own worst enemy.
Do I love me, oh love me now.
Do I love me, oh love me now.
Tell me, Tell me.
So tell me what it is,
Why love's got me so afraid to fall.
I'm my own worst enemy.
I'm my own worst enemy.
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 am not the enemy
(Pollock/Wright/Ivanovich)
Even though you're a friend of mine
Explain to me what it means
All the hows and whys, should I draw the line
And take away the friend left in me
'Cause I've lied, yes I've lied to myself
In saying this is how it should be
I've lied so much I don't even care
I let you get the better of me
Tell me, are you a friend, are you my enemy
Even though you're a part of me
I can't confide in you this
Those walls I laid, that I built around are
To keep you down under my skin
'Cause I've lied, yes I've lied to myself
In saying this is how it should be
I've lied so much I don't even care
I let you get the better of me
Tell me, are you a friend, are you my enemy
The President gave the word the other day,
He ruled the world
Time to meet your nightmare face to face
Start the fires
Cities are burning,
I'm scared out of my jeans.
I'm about to see hell man,
God must have set me free
What does it mean to make a man realise,
He who makes war Enemy
How many die in the blink of an eye,
Just to settle the score
Why does it take forever
Open your eyes Enemy
How many die in the blink of an eye,
And I want to know why it's me who's fighting
Drive a man to the point of insanity,
You make him kill.
No remorse cause mercy's dangerous,
You're a death machine
Men wounded, lie screaming
I'm dying, help me
I'll never see my mother's face again.
What does it mean to make a man realise,
He who makes war Enemy
How many die in the blink of an eye,
Just to settle the score
What does it mean to make a man realise,
He who makes war Enemy
How many die in the blink of an eye,
Just to settle the score
Why does it take forever
Open your eyes Enemy
How many die in the blink of an eye,
And I want to know why it's me who's fighting
Every minute more, one minute less
They've come for you
Will this be the day life ends for me
You'll never know what hit you
Helpless and broken,
I don't want to die
I'm too young to fade to grey.
What does it mean to make a man realise,
He who makes war Enemy
How many die in the blink of an eye,
Just to settle the score
Why does it take forever
Open your eyes Enemy
The feeling you keep inside
Yearning to start over your life
There's a place that will never change
Open up your door
Don't turn away there's a brand new way
You've got no ennemy
You've got no ennemy my friends
Remember you made your own choice
Never keep your promises
There's a place that will never change
Open up your door
Don't turn away there's a brand new way
You've got no ennemy
You've got no ennemy
There's a place that will never change
Open up your door
Don't turn away there's a brand new way
You've got no ennemy
if i can not decide what i will wake up and look like
the rest of my day is spent tearing me in my departments
left no choice but to do what i didn't think was possible
anchord reality finds me bothered in peices.
enemy decides who i will be
now i'm penalized and lost
can't find the end of me
i've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
charred, broken yellow teeth softened kiss seduces me
can be that easily taken by what is left to see
i know my inner pride is cause for my skin to hive
damaged behaivor leaves me no room for mercy.
enemy decides who i will be
now i'm penalized and lost
can't find the end of me
i've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
i've got one you don't
you let them know
i'm tired
i see you
you're a liar
you felt good.
enemy decides who iwill be
now i'm penalized and lost
can't find the end of me
i've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
can't find the end of me
can't find the end of me
can't find the end of me
can't see the enemy.
Don't patronize me
It only escalates my hatred for you
Don't analyze me
It only allocates my contempt for you
Don't realize me
It only decimates my patience for you
Don't pacify me, don't sacrifice me, don't you try me
Just let me be
Put the enemy, the enemy down
Put the enemy, the enemy down
You the ones
The ones that judge me
Don't justify me
It only separates my hands from you
Don't sanctify me, don't downsize me, don't you bind me
Just let me be
Put the enemy, the enemy down
Put the enemy, the enemy down
You the ones
The ones that judge me
What we need is a real uprising
Put the enemy, the enemy down
Put the enemy, the enemy down
You the ones,
Those ones that judge me
Put the enemy, the enemy down
Put the enemy, the enemy down
You the ones,
Those ones that judge me
Listen to me, listen to these names.
Listen, Diaz, Hussein, Mussolini, do you know these names?
Ho Chi Min, Batista, Bin laden, we got Marcos, Idia Min, Milosovich, names.
Fanatics of filth famine and atrocity. Understand? Delusions of grandeur, illusions of power. Do you get it? The enemy. Pol Pot, Stalin, Suharto, Charchesku, Mabutu, Mao, Hitler. How can we live with these extremes? What we need is a real uprising.
You've become the enemy
You've become the enemy
People always say
That nothing lasts forever
I never thought the day would come
When you would turn on me
I can't be the savior
Holding this together
I can't be the lifeline
When you will be the death of me
You've become the enemy
You won't be the end of me
You've become the enemy
Stole my soul
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ
With devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life, the life you stole
Drowning in a sea of
Self-annhilation
I threw you a rope
When you were calling out to me
But I can't be the savior
Holding this together
I can't be the lifeline
When you will be the death of me
(Hey! Hey!)
You've become the enemy
Stole my soul
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ
With devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life, the life you stole
I always thought that you would be
The one who'd never turn on me
But through it all, now I see
You've become the enemy
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ
With devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life, the life, the life, the life you stole
You've become the enemy
You won't be the end of me
You've become the enemy
I wanna live the life
I wanna breathe the air
I wanna a shiny car
And greasy hair
Live in mansions
All those pretty girls, aye
And I say
I don't wanna be your Enemy
I don't wanna be your Enemy
So I roll on with my circus
And I work it while you jerk it
With your ash trays and your phoney fake smiles :)
And I say, And I say
I don't wanna be your Enemy
I don't wanna be your Enemy
On magazines I plot the schemes
I write my dreams that run away
When all is done I'll be the one, one
You...
you made me this way
Oh so fierce and cold hearted
And now
You say you won't play
Your very own game that you've started
You made me - your enemy
So I´m gonna do - what you've done to me
You made me - your enemy
And I am just like you - like you wanted to
You made me - your enemy
So I'm gonna do - do what you've done to me
You made me - your enemy
And I am just like you - like you wanted to
Guilt
is eating you up
from inside
It's almost beautiful
when love
turns out to be
nothing but an empty promise
and a secret betrayal
(secret betrayal)
You made me - your enemy
So I'm gonna do - what you've done to me
You made me - your enemy
And I am just like you - like you wanted to
You made me - your enemy
So I'm gonna do - do what you've done to me
You made me - your enemy
And I am just like you - like you wanted to
And as a child I learned my lesson well
That no one's forgiven, not heaven or in hell
Aren't we having fun...
don't you think
Hello darling, my name is mental
Don't be scared I promise I'm gentle
Hush now darling, I won't stay long
Now a little pressure before I'm gone
And I say
Oh, who do you think you are
Oh, I'm proud to bear these scars
And I say
Oh, who do you think you are
Oh, I'm proud to bear these scars
Oh, you miserable fool
Don't you see life is foul, it's infected, it's cruel
So don't think with your mind
But enact with your body
You're losing you're losing you're losing
You're losing your
Mind your own business
With God as my witness
You will lose this war, you will be no more
So step up to the plate as I chew on your bait
And spit it right back in your face
And I say
Oh, who do you think you are
Oh, I'm proud to bear these scars
And I say
Oh, who do you think you are

Stop living your life for the alarm

to make a home for you to stay

to make a way for her to choose
her teenage dreams are here today
but in the morning they'll be gone
washed away by the minimum wage
the same, the same as everyone
leaning on your fence when you told me
you were gonna make lots of money
be a princess, diamonds and cigarettes
rolling out the carpet to regrets
now you're not so young it's too easy
to be a dreamer, wake up and be free
your clock is ticking fast friend, believe me
you only get one chance, can you hear me
it's not OK to be this way
it's not OK to be a slave
leaning on your fence when you told me

rolling out the carpet to regrets
now you're not so young it's too easy
to be a dreamer, wake up and be free
your clock is ticking fast friend, believe me
you only get one chance, can you hear me
it's not OK to be this way

not OK to be a slave
to be a slave

Shelly was a good girl
She never left her daddy's side
She was a technodanceaphobic
And every night inside, she'd cry
Megan was a bad girl
She never knew no right from wrong
Well they found her alone
Her daddy left her at home
And hoped that she was gone
Yeah, yeah
'Cause they were bangin' on the back seat all night long
Yeah they were bangin' on the back seat all night long
Yeah they were bangin' on the back seat
On the back seat
Bangin' on the back seat all night long
Sammy was a good boy
He never left his mummy's side
He was an alcoholaphobic
And every night inside, he'd cry
Danny was a bad boy
He liked to kick and scream and shout
Well on a saturday night
He got the feeling alright
To throw his weight about
Yeah, yeah
'Cause they were bangin' on the back seat all night long
Yeah they were bangin' on the back seat all night long
Yeah they were bangin' on the back seat
On the back seat
Bangin' on the back seat all night long
Yeah, yeah
So they were bangin' on the back seat all night long
Yeah they were bangin' on the back seat all night long

Bangin' on the back seat all night long
I said
Bangin' on the back seat
Yeah on the back seat

(All night long)
Yeah they were bangin' on the back
On the back seat
Bangin' on the back seat
Half the kids who you grew up with
Were pushin' prams by the time that they were just sixteen
If love is a drug then where is the cure
For the girl who used to talk to you about her dream
And all the boys with all their toys
Couldn't see the signs as we scorched out eyes with nicotine
And the grownups said, listen to your head
But our hearts were crying out for heroes on TV screens
Now this song is about you
Now this song is about...
Changes in your mind
Changes in your life
Changes in the times
And the reason you can't sleep at night
Changes in your mind
Changes in your life
Changes in the times
And the reason you gave up the fight
Half the kids that aren't pushing prams
Are pushing pills to boys and girls who are half their age
And the pubs and clubs are full of drunks
They don't remember the day the were born or even their mum or their names
An old man sings a tune
but he's drowned out by a fight next to a fruit machine
And all of this, our hearts, our nation
A total lack of civilization
Will it ever be the same
Now this song is about you,
Now this song is about...
Changes in your mind
Changes in our lives
Changes in the times
And the reason you we cant sleep at night
Changes in our mind
Changes in our lives
Changes in the times
And the reason we gave up the fight
Now this song... is about, is about, is about you
Now this song... is about, is about, is about you
Now this song... is about, is about, is about you
You spend your time in smokey rooms
where haggled old women with cheap perfume say
"it never happens for people like us you know"
well nothing ever happened on it's own
and well the toilets smell of desperation
the streets all echo of aggregation
and you wonder
why you cant get no sleep
when you've got nothing to do,
and you've had nothing to eat
your life's slipping
and sliding right out of view
and there's absolutely nothing
that you can do, well
We'll live and die,
We'll live and die in these towns
Don't let it drag you down
Don't let it drag you down now
We'll live and die,
We'll live and die in these towns
Don't let it drag you down
Don't let it drag you down now
Dirty dishes from a tv meal
that went cold from the wind
throuh a smashed up window
You cant go out if anybody calls ya
cos you cant have a bath
when there's no hot water
and your friends are out
on the town again
and you ask yourself if it will ever end
and it's all too much for your head to take
just a matter of time before you break, well
We'll live and die,
We'll live and die in these towns
Don't let it drag you down
Don't let it drag you down now
We'll live and die,
We'll live and die in these towns
Don't let it drag you down
Don't let it drag you down now
Now...
Now...
We'll live and die,
We'll live and die in these towns
Don't let it drag you down
Don't let it drag you down now
We'll live and die,
We'll live and die in these towns
Don't let it drag you down
Don't let the sun go down, On an Empire,
It's too much to waste. Don't let the walls come down,
Round an Empire, It's too much to wave goodbye.
We've been working for a long time,
We've been fighting for a way,
Now in the streets men standing in lines they're all wasted anyway.
You're living in an incestuous world,
Where you're conscious holds no weight,
You sold us down the river like rats then,
You drowned and beat the brave.
You're not alone you know, you're not alone you know
You're not alone no no.
Don't let the sun ... too much to wash away.
We've been working for a long time,
We've been fighting for a way,
Now in the streets men standing in lines they're all wasted anyway.
You're living in an incestuous world,
Where you're conscious holds no weight,
You sold us down the river like rats then,
You drowned and beat the brave.
You're not alone you know, you're not alone you know
You're not alone no no. (yeah, yeah)
(Not alone, not alone)
There's just too many dreams in this wasteland for you to leave us all behind.
There's just too many dreams in this wasteland for you to leave us all behind.
(You're not alone no, no)
You're not alone you know, you're not alone you know (yeah, yeah)
You're not alone no no.
You're not alone you know, you're not alone you know
I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song
I'm twenty-two now, but I won't be for long
People ask when will you grow up to be a man
But all the girls I loved at school are already pushing prams
I loved you then as I love you still
Though I put you on a pedestal, they put you on the pill
I don't feel bad about letting you go
I just feel sad about letting you know
I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for a new England
I'm just looking for another girl
I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for a new England
I'm just looking for another girl
I loved the words you wrote to me
But that was bloody yesterday
I can't survive on what you send
Every time you need a friend
I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for a new England
I'm just looking for another girl
I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for a new England
I'm just looking for another girl
Looking for another girl
Looking for another girl
Tell me what you see inside
Would it scare you to live my life?
I can see inside your soul
Yuo can't be what you don't know
Living lies you're full of hate
I can see it in your face
Pushing yourself to a pace
I can be foverevermore
I look at you, I feel the pain
I can't take it anymore
Chorus
Step back and look and see what's in front of me
You can look on and see what's inside of me
I can't hold on, you say I'm not your enemy
It is your time to die
I can see inside your mind
Told you what I can't deny
This is your time to come free
Forever come forever be
What you say cannot be true
So let it break inside of you
My inner self is full of rage
Fear is written on your face
I look at you, I feel the pain
I can't take it anymore
Chorus
Kick back!
I can't hold back, you're inside of me, yeah! x2
Stop saying I can't do it
Don't tell me how to live
You won't get the best of me
So go drown in self-pity
You are my worst enemy! Repeat
You keep wasting my time
That I can never rewind
So get out of my face
So I could escape, 'cause....
You are my worst enemy! Repeat
Enemy! Repeat
Take a dose of reality
Turn it up a notch
Open up the knocking door
And get up from the floor, 'cause...
You are my worst enemy! Repeat
Enemy!
You keep wasting my time
I can never rewind
So get out of my face
So I can escape, 'cause...
Repeat
You are my worst enemy! Repeat

I took a ride to meet an enemy
October light show bright through the windshield
Right into my eyes where I was silent riding shotgun
Chewing on some sugar free gum
Parallel park and pay the meter
'If I die before I leave tell her
I'll never leave her
I am just fine
I am just a little broken up
OK my nerves have never been so short
Can't get this shit off my mind
I just want to be alright
So tell her nothing's wrong
Then get undressed and spend the night
The autumn sun is burning logic in my brain
I'm asking why there is pleasure when there's pain
I'm here to pay for my mistakes in a humiliating manner
If there is a next time I'll cover up
I feel alone, I feel shaky and uncertian
A kind man shakes my hand and draws the curtain
In a word he saves my life and then
I exit out the enter door and smile
Can't get this shit off my mind
I just want to be alright
So just tell me nothing's wrong
Then get undressed and spend the night
I took a ride to meet an enemy
I faced a fear of mine and shivered but didn't blink
I took a ride to meet an enemy to end all the madness
And now I know that I'll be fine
I am fine
Can't get this shit off my mind
And I just want to be alright
So just tell me nothing's wrong
Then get undressed and spend the night
All this time I thought you knew, I thought you were aware
Of how much I would do for you, of just how much I care
All this time you sat here thinking that I wouldn't give
Every bit of life of mine just so that you could live
And now I've got a feel from you it's bitterness and cold
I'm hearing what you say but not believing what I'm told
Please hold me like you did before
We don't know what we're fighting for
I need you won't you stay with me
Cause I don't wanna be your enemy
You built so many walls around me that you couldn't see
That without you there is no us there is not even me
I'm standing here before you with no armour lying bare
Lying stranded and defenseless you could help me if you care
You built so many walls around me that I wouldn't dare
Try to climb them but I'm standing with a white flag in the air
Please hold me like you did before
We don't know what we're fighting for
I need you won't you stay with me
Cause I don't wanna be your enemy
Don't let me be your enemy
Don't let me be your enemy
Don't let me be your enemy
Don't let me be your enemy
Don't let me be your enemy
Don't let me be your enemy
Don't let me be your enemy
Don't let me be your enemy
Please hold me like you did before
We don't know what we're fighting for
I need you won't you stay with me
Cause I don't wanna be your enemy
Please hold me like you did before
We don't know what we're fighting for
I need you won't you stay with me
Cause I don't wanna be your enemy
I know it's really hard to see,
That we are the enemies,
I know it's really hard to see,
That we are the enemy
Of the Earth,
They'll fuck you,
Then they'll fuck themselves,
They raise the flag that Jesus sells,
They'll fuck you,
Then they'll fuck themselves,
They raise the flag that Jesus sells,
I know it's really hard to see,
That we are the enemy,
I know it's really hard to see,
That we are the enemy
Of the Earth,
We're on drugs,
We're on drugs,
We're all on drugs,
We're on drugs,
We're on drugs,
Baby, we're all on drugs,
Do you like drugs?
I know it's really hard to see,
That we are the enemy,
I know it's really hard to see,
That we are the enemy
Of the Earth,
We are the enemy of the Earth,
I know rain will not stop falling
Time is sinking under your nose
And i will not stop falling
Shame is a disease
No i'm not your enemy
Pain is the only cause, it's an agony
Suffering is just a tragedy
We all are sinners, it's killing me
You thought that i was a winner
I guess, you mistake on my behavior
Curtains are so fucking closed
Ho god i'm feline' so down...
Carry me on...
No i'm not your enemy
Pain is the only cause, it's an agony
Suffering is just a tragedy
look at this mess we've madecan i beg your forgiveness
for all of these lies
that i say
stop (won't you stop) and let me in (and let me in)
won't you tell me you need me
to tolerate
all of your sin
enemy - just around midnight
i can see - see you in cold light
i confess - everything tonight
i am not alone
enemy - just around midnight
i can see - see you in cold light
i confess - everything tonight
i am not alone

out of me
enemy - just around midnight
i can see - see you in cold light
i confess - everything tonight
i am not alone
enemy - just around midnight
i can see - see you in cold light
i confess - everything tonight

enemy my enemy
i've got you
in my head

when you want
so strike me strike me
strike me dead
(repeat chorus x 2)
enemy my enemy
i am not alone
Slightly go insane
Softly words I'm praying
I've been the best I can
Certain tears in falling rain
I've said please don't lie
I've thought there's no need
Forget what you've been forget who we are
Material things just belong to you
And I've found no regrets in your eyes and I saw him
But I know it's tru, painful worry
I can't believe you're my enemy, you're my enemy,
you're my enemy
Diamonds and pearls
That's what rules your world
The last embrace we do
Too cold I'm not the one for you
You know all my tears
You know long before
Forget what we've done, forget all my love
Material things just belong to you
And I've found no regrets in your eyes and I saw him
But I know it's tru, painful worry
I can't believe you're my enemy, you're my enemy,
Intro:
Every January 16th it's "The Dreamer The Dreamer."
And all of you say "I have a dream; The Dreamer."
And what did he dream? It stuck him right there.
And little black boys and little white girls
will one day hold hands together.
Shit.
Is that where it's at? Is that where it's at now?
Them little blacks hands are yours.
You can't hold the black brothers' hands?
But you gonna grow old holdin' crackers' hands
before you hold each other's hands?
You gonna walk with your enemy
before you learn to walk with one another?
How sick can you be?
(Enemy)
Verse One:
Where you gonna go when the brothers wanna bust a shot
where you gonna go when I wanna kill bloodclot
Supercat said that the ghetto red hot
bust a gloc, bust a gloc, devils get shot
nappy-headed, no-dreded look where ya read it
buck the devil, buck the devil, look who said it
listen what I say after 1995 not one death will be alive
god will survive, him protect the civilized
who really cares if the enemy lives or dies?
not me, not me
me never eat from the tree with the apple
I'd rather have a Snapple
do you know where you're going to
do you know where you're runnin from
scared of the sun, I live in the sun
You shrivel up like a raisin
and burn like the blunt that I'm blazin
Ku Klux Klan scared of my nutty beats
cause them nutty beats equal bloody sheets
out number you somethin like 15 to 3
see, don't love your enemy
Chorus
Enemies, enemy runnin from the G
enemies, enemy, you're my enemy
enemies, enemy, when will I see?
enemies, enemy R.I.P.
Verse Two:
Where you gonna run when God wanna do ya?
J. Edgar Hoover, I wish I woulda knew ya
with the boom ping ping is the ring from the fire
me not afraid, cause me know Elijah
goin to the East but straight from the Westside
swing down sweet chariot nad let me ride
through the fire, through the fire that will please us
I know that Farrakhan is your baby Jesus
devil don't you know I'm a soldier?
in God's name and the baby claim I'm gonna hold ya
like Folger's Crystals feds
I'ma pick your ass like Juan Valdez
you don't care if me die from the cracka
you don't care if me have a heart attacka
you don't care if me get car jacka
you don't care cause you're nothing but a cracka
now it's Judgement Day, and Allah'll never play
"freedom got an AK," them Guerilla say
Bobby Seale said, "please make it rough, bro"
when God give the word, me herd like the buffalo
through your neighborhood, watch me blast
tribe of Shabazz, get in that ass
you shoulda took heed of my word and became a friend of me
now you're just a enemy
Chorus
Verse Three:
Now I change my style up, my style up, bodies pile up
just to trouble you, throwin out the W
sent me a subpoena
cause I kill more crackas then Bosnia, Herze - govina
each and every day out a siz-tre Chevrolet
with the heavy A to the muthafuckin K
now you treat me like a germ
cause your scared of the su - per sperm
please don't bust til you see, the whites of his eyes
the whites of his skin, the whites of his lies
nappy head nigga with the bone in his nose
ya scared I'ma put this bone in your hoes
but I don't wanna, I've been to cona
from the cavebitch with the nasty persona
hit me with the big black billy club
cause you white and your hoe than a silly nub
three men in the tub, rub-a-dub-dub
and it's really scary, now they're in the military
Sodom and Gomorrah, devil read your Torah,
Bible, Holy Qur'an
once again it's on, got the hollow point teflon
and the brother Ron 2X, so who's next?
(devil)
with Dub C, Brother G
Crazy Toons is a crazy coon ready for the enemy
high off the Hennesy
hundred ten degree, no it's not Tennesee
West L.A., what the hell can I say?
niggas wanna play, each and every day
pass me the pill, a nigga shoot the J
rougher than the roughest rough muthafucka, had enough muthafucka?
handcuff this muthafucka with the duct tape, tie it to the bumper
grab his bitch, dump her, cause nobody wanna hump her
they call me Thumper cause I thump til it hurt
knock your dick in the dirt, puttin in work
Master Farad Muhammad comin like a comet
when they see em, they all start to vomit
1995, Elijah is alive
Lewis Farrakhan, NOI
Bloods and Crips and little ol me
Look at me
tell me what you see when you look at me
but can you see through
the wall they ve built between you and me
do you believe that the things you say
have been planted inside your head
can you unweave all the tales and lies
they have told you about me
there ain t no difference
in the colour of our blood
just unknown fear that makes you hate
why do you call me
enemy
enemy
from the day you were born
they ve had their way
and you believe there is nothing good in me
holy war cause you re blinded
by the book that you adore
evermore will you live by the hate
your father did before
if you would touch my hand
I think you d understand
I ain t no different from yourself
why do you call me
enemy
enemy
why do you call me
enemy
enemy
look into my eyes and see
who you call your enemy
ain t always the person you expect
throw your weapon from your hands
bury it beneath the sand
a bullet always kills more
than the person that it hits
enemy
why do you call me
enemy
enemy
why do you call me
enemy
look at me, what do you see
look at me, enemy
look at me, what do you see
I'm not your enemy
We're not your enemy
They're not who they appear to be
Those with the power to
Control our beliefs
To break this curse
Expose for all to see
To know that I am on your side
We're on your side
Powers that be have their methods
To dominate and be secure
In their power
To gain control
Over all that we see...
All that we see
Over all that we hear...
All that we hear
Manipulate to divide and conquer
Search for the truth
And you'll find the real enemy
I'm not your enemy
We're not your enemy
They're not who they appear to be
Because some things are not
Always as they seem
Control the public mind
Dreams, no more guaranties
Wake up and considered lucky
?????????? conditions are prevailed everywhere, while you're the object of some inner hate
Somewhere your views, your ideologies, the color of your skin
The way you decide to compose your life does not concur with opinion
Political correctness, it shadows everything
Inflicting each and everyone, nothing unscathed
They will decide what rights will be bestowed
What happen to equality, it's under consideration
Passive and obedient, their Utopian society
Now has lost it's niche, just satisfy the uppers
They decide what rights will be employed
A pseudo totalitarian hierarchy
Individual thought, that's much to dangerous
They will do the thinking: we're just the commons
There's no way, we are able to conceive
Who is a threat to our freedom, it's not the enemy
Wearing the mask, to hold the spotlight what fueling your ego
Feeding the fishes, your image just so fake you truly could not give a damn
Throw us a line, then watch us take the bait-hook, line and sinker
Play with our devotions and aspirations and never complete the deed
The lies, the greed
The empathy, we're just the commons
Enslaved to their supremacy
Ask yourself, who threatens our freedom and see it's not the enemy
The hate, the unrest
It's not the enemy, raping our rights
There’s people out there in this world
That can’t support their helpless self
There’s no money to be made
They don’t give a fuck about us
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
Spending money on bombs and guns
When the ghettos are getting worse
Never to think about the lower class
Only caring about their greed!!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
There’s people out there in this world
That can’t support their helpless self
There’s no money to be made
They don’t give a fuck about us
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
Its our worst enemy!
This country is!
So what do we do now?
You lost me in the crowd..
If i'm not the perfect one,
You strike me down like..
I try, i try to figure out,
Where it all began,
But that won't change anything,
So take all of this in.. cause' this is how it ends
You were never there for me back then,
So why should i hold on, try to pretend, everything's alright?
I could be your enemy, and care for what you've done
I can taste this hate,
Cutting through the air,
Pushing at my lungs,
And breaking me like...
I try, i try to figure out,
Are you worth the breath?
I clear, i clear the air,
And you'd rather forget...and this is how it ends
All useless words, and all they say,
Call the police
'cause things are getting ugly
Get on your feet
I want you running with me
Do what you like
Say what you mean
Do what you please
Ahhhhh
We'll set the streets on fire
And when it comes on top
We'll give it lots of aggro
We're giving it lots of aggro
Ahhhhh

And when it comes on top
We'll give it lots of aggro
We're giving it lots of aggro
Blood on the streets
You see the trouble happening
Get on your feet
You see the crowds are gathering
Do what you like
Say what you mean
Do what you please
Ahhhhh
We'll set the streets on fire
And when it comes on top
We'll give it lots of aggro
We're giving it lots of aggro
Ahhhhh

He's walking like a penguin
All zipped up tight
He thinks that he's a hard man
But he's got nothin to back it up
It's a lie
Which exists
Only in his -
Mind – gimme the sign
And he's only moving slowly
Cos it's moving so much faster in your
Mind – gimme the sign
And he's only moving slowly
Cos it's moving so much faster in your mind
Someone please stop him talking
Before he breaks into a rhyme
He's acting like he's tupac
But he's never even seen a gun
It's a lie
Which exists
Only in his -
Mind – gimme the sign
And he's only moving slowly
Cos it's moving so much faster in your
Mind – gimme the sign
And he's only moving slowly
Cos it's moving so much faster in you mind
Well you can press more buttons than a sky remote
But sing a tune and I bet you'll choke
Step outside cos we're coming through
We've got no time for this or you
It's – time -
To give me the sign
And he's only moving slowly
Cos it's moving so much faster in your
Mind – gimme the sign
And he's only moving slowly

Slept in my clothes again
Couldn't make it to my own bed
I'd only lie awake
Thinking about bills to pay
You know I work all day
Trying to find a way
A way for me to earn
To buy you things that you deserve
You know
Our backs against the wall
You and me against it all
I'll always lie awake
Until my backbone breaks
And when I get home
To the only place I know
I'll shout it high and loud
I only tried to do you proud
You know
And I hope to God we find some money soon
And I hope to God we'll find some money soon
This is real, this is real but I know we'll make it through
This is real, this is real but I know we'll make it through
Slept on my own again
Exiled from my own bed
I couldn't lie awake
Thinking about whats at stake
The sheets are cold and dry
Thinking of streets in the sky
You know
And I hope to God we'll find some money soon
I hope to God we'll find some money soon
This is real, this is real but I know we'll make it through
This is real, this is real but I know we'll make it through
Love we don't have much but what we have's enough
Go ahead, tell your little sob story,
Make it matter, make it end in glory.
They're all waiting for a sad old tale,
Crocodile tears on a tragic scale.
Get up and tell them that you've had it tough,
Tell them all about it, how its been so rough,
And if it doesn't get them, you could spruce it up,
Inject a bit of fiction till they're all hooked up.
The more you watch, the less you know,
A talent less wonder, the greastest show,
On Earth, its not, its simply a joke.
Do what you want, just do what you want.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on,
You're not the only one, to have things all go wrong.
Go ahead, take your final bow,
Stick it to the camera, and its alright now,
You've always been ready for your moment to shine,
Its five on the clock, don't take your time.
You can make it, fake it, give a little smile,
But you can't take a joke cause you're in denial.
Give a little wave and I'll see you later,
Sadly unaware, you're tomorrow's chip paper.
The more you watch, the less you know,
A talentless wonder, the greastest show,
On Earth, its not, its simply a joke.
You knooooow!
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on,
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on.
And in a year you'll all be gone
Burned, no job, no same old song, how predictable.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on
You're not the only one.
Turn, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on,
It's not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy
I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found
Something going on
But take your time, think a lot
I think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not
How can I try to explain
When I do he turns away again
And it's always been the same
Same old story
From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way and I know
That I have to go away
I know I have to go
It's not time to make a change
Just sit down and take it slowly
You're still young that's your fault
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy
All the times that I've cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
And it's hard, but it's harder
To ignore it
If they were right I'd agree
But it's them they know, not me
Now there's a way and I know
That i have to go away
In the city they die now
And they act like it's ok
With their little white lines out
They wouldn't have a word to say
1-2-3-4
Ready to go!
woah oh oh
We're young and we feel alive
One more brains
Out ready to blooow
(woah oh oh)
The first day of the rest of our lives
In the city act out
And they know just how to play
One by one they tap out
And the winners the one who stays
And the nitty gritty games they play
No it's not for me
No it's not for me
1-2-3-4
Ready to go!
woah oh oh
We're young and we feel alive
One more brains
Out ready to bloooow
The first day of the rest of our lives
Lost of feeling
while you were dreaming
And I stopped believing
Oh you never know
Lost of feeling
And I almost stopped breathing
You know
I'm not leaving
Ohoh here we go
1-2-3-4
Ready to go!
woah oh oh
We're young and we feel alive
One more brains
Out reday to bloooow
In a dirty old bar
In a troubled town
Where you watch your step
And you keep your eyes down
Friend of a friend
Opened my mind
He's about to turn a lonely life
Over again
Over and over and over
And over again
With a brilliant mind
And your beautiful face
Took all my furniture
And threw it away
And all my hope
Has been restored
Where once was fear
Now there is love
Over again
And over and over and over
And over again
You can't live on memories where memories fade
This is a song so you'll get up, get up and dance in the morning
A smile on your face
This is a song so you'll get up, get up and dance
Get up and dance
In a dirty old bar
In a troubled town
There's a place where I
I wanna sit down
Make our plans
For when we're (?)
We can build a life
Caught in a hole
Over again
And over and over and over
And over again
You can't live on memories where memories fade
This is a song so you'll get up, get up and dance in the morning
A smile on your face
This is a song so you'll get up, get up and dance
And I crack my back working for somewhere to stay
And I'll never stop searching to find us a way
You can't live on memories where memories fade
This is a song so you'll get up, get up and dance in the morning
A smile on your face
Maybe it's to early
Maybe it's to late
Maybe it's just around the corner
But I don't wanna wait
Maybe there's a reason
Maybe there's a plan
Maybe I'm heathen
Maybe I'm mad
It's only me hat thinks it's all a lie
I woke up in world war something
Lost my feeling I got nothing
Make a man
If you can
Of this boy
In your hands
Maybe there's no reason
Maybe there's no rhyme
Maybe when you're on your knees
You're wasting precious time
Maybe it's a joke and it's on you
Maybe you should stop and look around
I woke up in world war something
Lost my feeling I got nothing
Make a man
If you can
Of this boy
In your hands
When you know it it's over
When it's over it's over
When you know it it's over
When it's over it's over
When you know it it's over
When it's over it's over
When you know it it's over
When it's over it's oh
I woke up in world war something
Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There's more to the picture than meets the eye
Hey hey, my my
Out of the blue and into the black
You pay for this, but they give you that
And once you're gone, you can't come back
When you're out of the blue and into the black
The king is gone, but he's not forgotten (Johnny Rotten,
Johnny Rotten)
Is this the story of Johnny Rotten? (Johnny Rotten,
Rotten Johnny)
It's better to burn out 'cause rust never sleeps
The king is gone, but he's not forgotten
Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
And when she blows the candle flame to smoke
She says a prayer for all of those who live in houses and in homes
And monday shell go down town standing naked in the road
You may know what I am
But who I am you dont know
Shell run across the mustard dust sand
Scream down the wind
And the sea is in a cold
Like when in holiday homes
And houses like sweet confectionary
And sandcastles and drinking wine
Hungry dinners perfectly timed
And mother and father glowing young
Happy to be each other together
When she blows the candle out
She goes to bed and lies and drags through her head
The day that went way of every day
But tomorrow shell fly a plane
Over the fields where the houses arent built yet
She smiled sweetly across the room
Through the lunch time smoke
And I loved her for a second
And discarded the queen and I know
How sweetness turns sour
And leaves they turn to brown
And then to earth and dust
And settle in this town
You get blown away...
(repeat 1st half)
She smiled sweetly across the lunch time smoke
And I loved her for a second and discarded the queen and I know
When men are being little boys again
And women cruel step mothers of old
And this is the invention
The adventure of my own
Stop your messing around,
Better think of your future.
Time you straighten right out,
Creating problems in town.
Rudy, a message to you Rudy.
A message to you.
Stop your fooling around.
Time you straighten right out.
Better think of your future,
As you wind up in jail.
Rudy, a message to you Rudy.
A message to you.
Stop your messing around.
Better think of your future.
Time you straighten right out,
Creating problems in town.
Rudy, a message to you Rudy.
A message to you Rudy.
Oh, its a message to you Rudy.
Yeah, its a message to you Rudy.
Im so sick sick sick and tired
Of working just to be retired
I don't want to get that far
I don't want your company car
Promotions ain't my thing
Name badges are not interesting
Its much easier for me see
To stay at home with Richard and Judy
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
I'm fed up of early mornings
Wake up calls are getting boring round here
Feet dragging on the pavement
The same people with the same arrangements
*Irony* can be quite funny
Making other people money
My working day has just begun
It's not exactly what i'd would call fun
I want to wake up in the afternoon
With daytime tv and my favourite tune
Cause it is much, easier for me
To stay at home with Richard and Judy
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way a way, away from
Saturday is your only highlight
When you go out and live the high life
Meeting up with other people
Get interaction with the weekend people
*At least when all is* said and done
You wouldn't been the only one
*to be* a slave to the modern wage
Your crappy weekend is your only escape
I want to wake up in the afternoon
With daytime tv and my favourite tune
Cause it is much easier, for me see
To stay at home with Richard and Judy
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
A way a way oh, oh oh, away from here
