An enemy or foe is a relativist term for an entity, whether an individual or a group, that is seen as forcefully adverse or threatening. The concept of an enemy has been observed to be "basic for both individuals and communities". The term "enemy" serves the social function of designating a particular entity as a threat, thereby invoking an intense emotional response to that entity. The state of being or having an enemy is enmity.
"Enemy" is a strong word, and "emotions associated with the enemy would include anger, frustration, envy, jealousy, fear, distrust, and possibly grudging respect". As a political concept, an enemy is likely to be met with hate, violence, battle and war. The opposite of an enemy is a friend or ally. Because the term "the enemy" is a bit bellicose and militaristic to use in polite society, informal substitutes are more often used. Often the substituted terms become pejoratives in the context that they are used. In any case, the designation of an "enemy" exists solely to denote the status of a particular group of people as a threat, and to propagate this designation within the local context. Substituted terms for an enemy often go further to meaningfully identify a known group as an enemy, and to pejoratively frame that identification. A government may seek to represent a person or group as a threat to the public good by designating that person or group to be a public enemy.
Lover, you're wrong
I'm not that strong
With a whisper your breath could just blow me away
So I'm clutching like hell to each word that you say
Like a flag to its mast in a hurricane
Lover, beware
This hijacked prayer means as much as the praises I raised as a child
When my lips did their duty while my insides went wild
Every Sunday the Lord was beguiled
CHORUS
Are we enemies of simplicity?
Have we done wrong?
Or are we just friends who let touching hands linger a little too long?
Don't close your eyes
It's no surprise
I'm adrift in the ocean and you are the coast
You're the one I'm ignoring 'cause I need you the most
Heaven help us if we get too close
CHORUS
How can this be wrong?
And forever might not be too long.
Couldn't sleep through the heat
Felt the daylight through the sheets
Plus I need to get up
Catch my enemies and put them all in jail
On the way through the day
Birds are singing, children play
But I need to watch out
Catch my enemies and put them all in jail
And not a moment too soon
He got to stop what he doing
I mean this writing is wrong
He won't be doing that for long
In jail, in jail
In jail, in jail
In jail, in jail
In jail, in jail
In jail, in jail
In jail, in jail
In the evening stars are bright
Peaceful feeling through the night
But I need to look out
Catch my enemies and put them all in jail
You know some people
They think they know what happened really is
But I know what happened that really is
Happened just two things
The first thing,
Is when you get to ride in a racing car
The second thing,
Is when your bad, bad, bad, bad enemies
Are in jail
That's right
When you are riding into a racing car
Is when your bad, bad, bad enemies
Are in jail
So when I'm walking down the street
And I see an enemy
Where do I put him?
(In Jail)
That's right
When I'm walking down the street
And I see another enemy
Where do I put him?
(In Jail)
I see one more enemy, where do I put him?
(In Jail)
Feeling so happy
With my enemies
All in jail
You never rid the butterflies
That hate you feel, you can't disguise
It's animal, it's chemical
It's only human, to hit so low
Well I know what you need
I can tell you lies
And we'll be enemies
So dissatisfied
The dirty looks, you burn inside
You won't forget, 'cause you've decided
There's someone you can blame
You can feel lily white again
Well I know what you need
I can tell you lies
And we'll be enemies
So dissatisfied
Well I know what you need
I can tell you lies
And we'll be enemies, yeah, yeah
So dissatisfied
And we'll be enemies
So dissatisfied
And we'll be enemies, yeah, yeah
I tried to tell them all before
They wouldn't listen, they want more
Take, take, take, regret it
This is how we all feel better
Alert the people, tell the truth
One grieving nation under you
Kiss their mouths and shake their...
Enemies make us feel better
Why can't I just say there will be a day when everyone
will hear the truth?
Never in this world will we lose control of you
Adjust the picture, make it clear
It's televised, excite the fear
Never-ending glory
Write it down then tell your story
This war in terror reads so right
It helps the people sleep at night
Yes, it was invented
But enemies make us feel better
Why can't I just say there will be a day when everyone
will hear the truth?
All the hate I've grown for you
Since it all came down...
Hold still and sleep for now, bite the pillow...
All we shared was dirty tricks
and the urge to play
You know, deceiving leads to a bitter (end)
All we cared was how to hurt
and make things dead (it's all coming clear now...)
You wanted to have it all...
PRAISE THE LOVE
YOUR BROKEN SMOTHERED HEART CHARITY
YOU KNOW!
FROM NOW ON WE ARE ENEMIES!
I TRIED TO SEARCH A PLACE FOR SOME SYMPATHY
BUT YOU KNOW! FROM NOW ON WE ARE ENEMIES (enemies)
Breathe heavily, inhale, the exhausting anger
Fly fuckin' high for me, 'cause I'm still clingin'
Promises, based on your twisted head
You showed no shame when crushing both
My love and hate in pieces
Leashed me up with guilt and secrets
I need you to be stone dead...
FOR ME, ME...
PRAISE THE LOVE
YOUR BROKEN SMOTHERED HEART CHARITY
YOU KNOW!
FROM NOW ON WE ARE ENEMIES!
I TRIED TO SEARCH A PLACE FOR SOME SYMPATHY
BUT YOU KNOW! FROM NOW ON WE ARE ENEMIES...
RECKLESS AND COLD
FROM NOW ON WE ARE ENEMIES
SHIT PAID FOR GOLD
FROM NOW ON WE ARE...
Neglecting, violating, lying sack of shit you are!
Backstabbing, (emotion killing)
Life abusing (UNGOD!)
You lied, you lied, you lied to me...
You lied, you love to lie, to me...
(you crawled, you begged, you cried for me!)
Listen up
There's not a moment to spare
It's quite a drop from the top
So how you feeling down there
It's a cold, cruel, harsh, reality
Caught, stuck, here with your enemies
Who do you think you are!
Tearing us all apart
Where did you think you could go?
'Cause everyone already knows
It's 20 to 1
Yeah, so you better run
You got the world on it's knees
You're taking all that you please
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You're like the burden we bear
You love the hate that we share
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
But enemies!
Enemies!
You started something that you just couldn't stop
You turn the ones that you love
Into and angriest mob
And the one, last, wishes that you pay for it
And there's, no, way you're getting out of it
Who do you think you are!
Tearing us all apart
Where did you think you could go?
'Cause everyone already knows
It's 20 to 1
Yeah, so you better run
You got the world on it's knees
You're taking all that you please
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You're like the burden we bear
You love the hate that we share
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
But enemies!
Enemies!
Enemies!
Where did you think you could go
'Cause everyone already knows
It's 20 to 1
Yeah, so you better run
You got the world on it's knees
You're taking all that you please
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You're like the burden we bear
You love the hate that we share
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You got the world on it's knees
You're taking all that you please
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You're like the burden we bear
You love the hate that we share
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
But enemies
Enemies!
Enemy's gathering rumours
(gathering rumours, gathering rumours)
Ignorant spread
Fools accept them without confirmation
Hey, you'd better surrender
Stop spreading these rumours, oh
Enemy's gathering rumours, oh yeah
Enemies are gathering rumour ignorant spread
Enemies are gathering rumour ignorant spread
Fools take it and accept it. Fools take it and accept it
Pam pam
We are tired of hearing rumours
Please give up, don't tell no lies
Enemies are gathering rumour…
If you're my enemy you'd better surrender
You don't realize the harm you've done.
Proving your own selfishness,
By bending reality,
To destroy my happiness.
You won't be be forgiven.
I hope one day that you feel the way I do
And watch your world fall apart right in front of you.
And when it happens I'll be there to laugh at your expense.
You will never get the best of me.
I walk alone.
I gave up everything,
To make something out of nothing.
In the end I had nothing at all.
Nothing to call my own.
I hope you die alone.
May you rest in pieces.
No matter what you do to me.
I'll rise to be the best man I can be.
No apologies can fix the wrongs you've done.
You dug your own grave now rot in it.
I walk alone.
I gave up everything,
To make something out of nothing.
In the end I had nothing at all.
Nothing to call my own.
I hope you die alone.
May you rest in pieces.
Somethings weren't meant to be,
But I swear to god you'll never get the best of me.
You'll be forced to live with guilt forever.
Wishing you never did this to me,
what started this war?
how will it end?
we've thrown away our lives for more important things.
Your words are like bullets from the tip of your tongue straight into my head.
Shattering my thoughts.
we will drown out our enemies they kept us from speaking
while they are sinking slowly we keep them from breathing
lets make sure they never find just what they've been seeking
and in the end we will be the ones with hearts that are still beating
the only thing you have become is the enemy.
we will drown out our enemies one by one.
they kept us from speaking
we keep them from breathing
just what they've been seeking
Are we Alone?
Forever finding our way home?
Or have we Lost the Skill to Navigate This Course?
Still we try, to keep ourselves alive,
For reasons why, others will get left behind.
Might have known you'd be my savior,
when I'd fallen out of favor,
Might have known you'd be my savior
You saved this perfect stranger
Who we are all comes down to what we know,
Who we become, surely time will tell us when to run,
Or walk in the light,
the warmth just feels so right,
The question burns,
never know which way to turn.
All we stand for, all we know,
where we come from, where we go.
He told her that he loved her
And he really truly cared
And then one day he realized
Their lives could not be shared
He tried to make things easy
He tried to be her friend
She wants no part of that though
Enemies in the end
Enemies in the End [4x]
They've been together for
Too many years
He caused a lot of pain
She's she'd a lot of tears
They both realized that
They couldn't get along
But she's the one who's upset
"Enemies"
[Verse 1]
In the backseat of a yellow taxi
feel your heart beat
deception is intense
and you think I didn't know
Its like Bombay traffic in my mind,
how can you keep up with all your lies,
and you think I didn't notice...
[Chorus]
I said keep your enemies close and your lovers closer
I'm letting you know the show is over now
so lean in closer now
keep your hands up
so I can see
I think its too late
you got the best of me
so lean in closer
keep your enemies close and your lovers closer
[Verse 2]
And its hard to but you cant refuse
The first to volunteer to be abused liked this
don't act like you don't know
Were in the bedroom of your very best friend
I'm fucking guilty
[Chorus]
I said keep your enemies close and your lovers closer
I'm letting you know the show is over now
so lean in closer now
keep your hands up
so i can see
I think its too late
you got the best of me
so lean in closer [x2]
keep your enemies close and your lovers closer
Don't say that were something were not
If we think to much then were gonna get caught
Don't say that were something were not
The truth is maybe I wanna get caught
Keep your enemies close and your lovers closer [x2]
[Chorus]
I said keep your enemies close and your lovers closer
I'm letting you know the show is over now
so lean in closer now
keep your hands up
so i can see
I think its too late
you got the best of me
so lean in closer [x2]

[Verse 1: Tyga]
Driving, but my mind in the back.
You are alone, but it's quiet cause we occupy to that.
I left my phone, stopped for gas, then some girl named Janet call
Said it really pissed you off and you let it build a wall.
Emotions tall, we're in the mall and some random girl call and Mina text it back.
I ain't trying to lose it all, cause family first and pussy last.
The last pussy that I had it was good, but she ain't no trophy to brag,
But I should do it anyway, cause we can fall off any day.
And you'll be right back to where you was , yeah, your momma place.
Had things to say and girls are paid and you just lay around, man, you're so spoiled now, only child!
Been this as usual, while you yell our business so loud.
Bringing these groupie bitches around you; they ain't your friends, they're fowl.
Swear so they tell addresses in your mail first to say: "I told you so!",
But first off, ain't they all alone?
Yeah, I told you so, you keep your enemies too close.
Not everybody auntie know, we're supposed to be like on the low!
Remember before we've been down this road, tie your flat on the slope.
Came to a stop as soon as I spoke, cause you know:
I wanna tell the world about you, but this is like you sworn the secrecy!
What do we sacrifice, growing up to fall in love so fast, hope we don't become enemies!
I put my faith in God, you put your faith in me, now I'm just trying to keep my sanity!
Why do we sacrifice to fall in love so fast?
Man, I hope we don't be enemies.
I'm still seeking..
I ran into my ex like the other day didn't wanna let you know, cause usually you look the other way.
Despise face with hatred, visions of me and her naked.
Lies, you can't take it, cheated before, but not lately!
Lately I've been so into this shit, love is amazing!
Said: 'you was amazing spending your time
All of your time into the days when, but it's one person you relate with.
You go wild and lay with!
Never been good with relationships, life difficult, she make it basic.
Yeah, when I'm basic I drive slow, your body in my control.
It's my control, ain't gotta go, no way, just pose like feel gold!
Let the time go, we'll go, too..
No telling what I might do without you, cause I got a pass and you do too,
But I ain't gotta judge what you've been through, cause:
I wanna tell the world about you, but this is like you sworn the secrecy!
What do we sacrifice, growing up to fall in love so fast, hope we don't become enemies!
I put my faith in God, you put your faith in me, now I'm just trying to keep my sanity!
Why do we sacrifice to fall in love so fast?
Man, I hope we don't be enemies.
I'm still seeking..
Cause you know:
I wanna tell the world about you, but this is like you sworn the secrecy!
What do we sacrifice, growing up to fall in love so fast, hope we don't become enemies!
I put my faith in God, you put your faith in me, now I'm just trying to keep my sanity!
Why do we sacrifice to fall in love so fast?
Man, I hope we don't be enemies.
I'm a punk, I'm king, I'm a coward
Full of promise and destiny
But you don't understand me anyway (that's okay)
You can run and hide and duck in the city
You can drag yourself all over the world
I'm a snake with the blood of electric
No need for conspiracy
'Cause you won't understand me anyway (that's no problem)
Gonna laugh when the earth dies screaming
Gonna dance in the fire light
'Cause you won't understand me anyway (okay whatever)
You can run and hide and duck in the city
You can drag yourself all over the world
You can do most anything from sea to shinning sea
But you can't live without your enemies
Enemies, enemies, enemies
(Let's go!)
Getting even ain't enough, revenge is the key
Get your strength and inspiration from your enemies
You can run and hide and duck in the city
You can drag yourself all over the world
You can do most anything from sea to shinning sea
But you can't live without your enemies
Enemies, enemies, enemies
All hell breaks loose
For one reason only
To try to destroy me and my ways of trying to save
Battered and Burised I stand
Done by the work of your hands
But if you open up your eyes to see
That you will never defeat me
I will stand my ground defeat any boundries so try and give everything you have
So choke on your words
Cause nothing you say
Can destroy my God
(Nothing you say)
Battered and Burised I stand
Done by the work of your hands
But if you open up your eyes to see
That you will never defeat me
I will stand my ground defeat any boundries so try and give everything you have [x2]
But if you open up your eyes to see
(Open you eyes)
That you will never defeat me
I watched you try to take us down
I watched you try to take us down
But you can't bring us down
(You can't bring us down)
But you can't bring us down
Yeah!!! AOWWWW, AOWWWW!
Sometimes I'm my own worst ENEMY
With friends like y'all, the fuck needs ENEMIES?
I beat, I stab, I kill my ENEMIES
Refuse to let you waste my ENERGY
I heard they callin me a immigrant; well this motherfuckin immigrant
came to yo' city and started runnin shit
X is like the government, taxin that ass
Been harassed to the point that I'm ready to blast
And spend the rest of my life behind metal and glass
Never seen a nigga move so fast, cut you in half
Sick of all these threats, these bitches with no action
Hog-tie, watch you die and start laughin
And no longer will I sit back and let you disrespect the fact
that we elevated West coast rap
And bring shit back to the point "X" is all that they checkin for
In the clubs, the streets, the shows and the record stores
What more can you ask for, eat your heart out
Fall out with bitch niggaz constantly callin my name out
I'm really not givin a fuck, you're pressin your luck
I'm a walkin warhead ready to self-destruct, so WHAT?!
My name feel like a slap in the face
My name feel like a gat in yo' waist
My name is all over the place
Erasin all misconceptions
I live my whole life with aggression bitch;
and I'm not stressin
Your words ain't workin I feel so much pressure
Padlock, chain around, neck no lesser
Sick of niggaz runnin they mouth
It don't take much to get knocked out, round these parts when I start
Shit full clips get emptied, revenge WE
move like the Secret Service, I ain't nervous
I just wanna tell the truth.. the whole truth
When I'm on the stand explainin how I had to shoot
Absolute domination, extreme mutilation
No hesitation, I'm a movin violation
So don't get hit in the street
Used to have friends and family, now I got nothin but beef
WHAT THE FUCK?!?!
So-and-so hate me, blah-blah gon' get me
If I gotta go, y'all niggaz comin wit me
I'ma walk like a soldier, talk like a soldier
Cinderblock stock, shootin straight from the shoulder
Just too much shit in the air
Burn bridges you could never repair
I slap box with a bear
I can speak from experience, you speak from ignorance
I remove you, have your whole family feelin it
Y'all hate the fact that X-Man got hustle
"Man vs Machine," mind vs. muscle
I drop concoctions, you leave me no options
Have your bitch screamin out, "SOMEBODY STOP HIM!!"
No more Mr. Nice Guy, I'm a tyrant
L.A.'s finest, Open Bar behind us
Don't look hard, it ain't too hard to find us
...and even though we’re enemies, I want you around
And every time we fight we bring each other down
I know I’ll never know why, I never knew that much
But I’ll sacrifice that answer for one touch
We're in a sea full of sharks
Just swimming around and around if we get caught
There guna taste our blood
You leave a trail and the word will get out
That we're all lost and ready to kill
That we're all lost and ready to kill
Only act that way when your feeling vulnerable and I don't want to play
I don't have the nerve like you
Your spreading the seed and all I want to do
I bury you deep deep down in me
I bury you deep deep down in me
Are you guna make an enemy of me
Are you my enemy
Are you guna make an enemy of me
Are you my enemy
It's to deep of a cut to mend
And there is no way we can go back, go back again
And this is what we've got this is what we've go to live with
And this is what we've got this is what we've go to live with
Are you guna make an enemy of me
Are you my enemy
Are you guna make an enemy of me
Are you my enemy
Are you my enemy
You're my enemy

You wont get away from the WRATH THAT COMES WITH ATROCITIES
rI've done hell to my safe holding
Out for my body in such lose feeling
I blame these sad things on me
Cut a smile in my face so you'll intake some fleeting comfort
Close in
I won't let you out of my touch
But you brandish the weapon of passive aggression
It seems like your idea I'm perfect
In mine I'm perfectly in line
So lets be enemies
To see the sun go away
Would you think I'd let you in
I've grown to suffer you lashing out at me
To see the sun go away
Don't deny my tolerance
Don't take away these sad things from me
And that ain't nothing
You should see what I'd do to me
Cut a smile in my face so you'll intake some fleeting comfort
You've built a wall up, you need to help tolerate any discomfort
From...
Your idea that I'm perfect
In mine I'm perfectly in line
So lets be enemies
To see the sun go away
Would you think I'd let you in
I've grown to suffer you lashing out at me
I will stand alone
Your idea, I'm perfect
In mine I'm perfectly in line
So lets be enemies
To see the sun go away
My idea, unless you're blind is
Put your faith in me friend
I won't lead you wrong
Without me you're nothing
Together we are strong
A hundred battles fought
And this is one more
To lay claim to this world
You'll need to fight a war
The wind is strong
The flames are high
The time is now
The tide shall turn
I can give you weapons
Strategies to win
Killing isn't easy
You need experience
Victory will never
Come at a small price
Feedom comes to those who
Dare to sacrifice
The enemy attacked at dawn
They took us by surprise
No mercy shown as they advanced
No chance to question why
An when the thousandth life had died
We heard an endless cry
Of every act of murder
It must have been maybe it was
I don't remember when
When I fell for myself
I fell off the chair
That sat me next to you
Could I take all the love
That I have for myself
Could I give it all to you
Can I kill the big monster
That lives down inside
Can we throw all the history aside
It's not easy to pretend
That we're not
Enemies sometimes
But it pleases me defending
All the memories tonight
It may have been a bit hopeless
But something honest
Went down that night
I lifted my head for
Just long enough to see
What I'd never seen in my life
Could I take all the love
That I had for myself
Did anything make it through
And it kills not to know
What goes on in your mind
Can you throw all the history aside
It's not easy to pretend
That we're not
Enemies sometimes
But it pleases me defending
how do I explain to my children
why we kill each other
and have forever
why we choose to draw blood
and feast on the dead
lie to ourselves
and celebrate our greatest failures
always fail to see the pattern
in a history of endless human suffering
why should we think this will ever change
when there has never been another way
that tomorrow won't see the masses enslaved
and the planet scarred by the wars being waged
why should we think this will ever change
no one cares because its commonplace
tomorrow will still see our women raped
and starving children left to their fate
are we doomed
will we be lost forever
Lots of jerks are passing me by
People I meet say goodbye
You're too much for me I can't handle
This race of champs is gonna pass you by
Nothing to say nothing to do
If you're so slow don't follow me
I don't want you here and I don't want you there
Just leave me alone
What happens you you I really don't care
I don't care
Enemies for me and you are too
You don't understand there's no need for you
If you crawl into your corner You'll die
If you take another punch
I don't need enemies
to attack me like a disease.
destroying the ground
where i stand.
never lending me
a helping hand to hold.
destroying my life from the inside.
making me wish as though i died.
never off my mind, always on the line.
all i can do is hope in time.
everything lifts from the past.
then i'll start over and hope it lasts.
finally you forgive and i start to live.
WITHOUT ENEMIES!
When I first met you I thought that you and I was friends to the end
People told me men you befriended just went to the pen
But I ain't listen to them, cause you promised
As long as I fuck with you I never be in the same position again
Like you said they just jealous cuz we gone get rich and they not
They work a lot, we play the block, still got more than they got
Cousin guzzling hinny high, people say if I keep fucking with you
I subsequently die, end up with twenty five
They claiming you claim many lives, with so many lies
With guys, innocent ladies, babies of any size
Nah I knew it wasn't the truth, cuz they ain't have nothing for proof
They even blamed you for dozens of youths of substance abuse
What kinda crap is that? Everybody knows that crackers bought crack to our habitat
To attack the Latins and Blacks, never mind that fact, something I know is wrong
You was there when my hopeless mom put me out in the coldest storm
Even though you did introduce me to smoking dro
And so it was, you welcome Saigon with open arms
That's all I could focus on, the reason I wrote this explosive song
To show even the closest bond, gets torn
You tricked me all along, you had me thinking you was my friend
You never loved Saigon
(Chorus)
With friends like you who needs enemies
Brought a nigga bad luck like the Kennedys
You had a nigga ass up in the penitentiary
With friends like you who needs enemies
Now we smoking new porces, dozens of whole forties we force with
You taught the kid more than any school in New York did
Teachers teaching me social studies, but wasn't there for Saigon to cry on after the wakes of my closest buddies
I was grew up, I depicted this picture too up, was I just a fool or just too young
I storm on the booze that you brung
Snatch my soul, put a whole in it, grab my mind took control of it,
Made my heart as cold as the home it supposed to be
Funny when you wasn't around it was no incidents
That you telling all of that was simply coincidence
That's a thesis I doubt, 'fore I met you I wasn't kick Theresas eye out
Or had the police at my house, I wouldn't have needed keys to fly south
Murder rap would never ease from my mouth, I probably be at peace with myself
Probably think what you did to me was sweet, laughing at me like Kee-Kee-Kee Falling for your trickery in this feet
Don't flatter yourself, it don't take a genius to spell thug
Convince a kid at the mere age of twelve to sell drugs
If you really had g, you had them white kids like you had me
It was they great granddaddies that created you Daddy
They was the ones that flooded you with gats and liquor stores
Mats, Pimps with the whores, trade cash for intercourse
And of course these young niggas stay sucking you off
But I know the truth, so poof; I'm cutting you off
(Chorus)
With friends like you who needs enemies
Brought a nigga bad luck like the Kennedys
You had a nigga's ass up in the penitentiary
With friends like you who needs enemies
You did this to me
You did this to me, man
You know what? A lot of times we grow up thinking the streets is our friend
You know what I'm sayin'
The streets ain't your motherfucking friend young blood
Take it from me, man, I been in the streets my whole motherfucking life
You never rid the butterflies
The hate you feel, you can't disguise
It's animal, it's chemical
It's only human to hit so low
Well, I know what you need
Well, I can tell you lies
And we'll be enemies
So dissatisfied
The dirty looks you burn inside
You won't forget 'cause you've decided
There's someone you can blame
You can feel lily white again
Well, I know what you need
Well, I can tell you lies
And we'll be enemies
So dissatisfied
Well, I know what you need
Well, I can tell you lies
And we'll be enemies, yeah
So dissatisfied
And we'll be enemies
So disatisfied
And we'll be enemies, yeah
