The Enemy Lyrics
[Interlude:]
What are you doing?
May I please go back to prison?
Not yet
[Verse 1:]
Go on say it mean it all the rage
They only happy when we all the same
So don't ask me why I'm walking away
From a system that's rigged to have us walking in chains
I see my daughter her face
I wanna give her the world, what if the world's outta shape?
How do I un-involve us from this tubular pace?
Of everybody with the same goal now work to the grave
Now these politicians pushing policies to effect us
Core operations spots of government who the fuck are we electing?
They're poisoning our water and the truth it is neglected
How the fuck I meant to calm down? I won't take you for a second
Break into the matrix which god are we resurrecting?
Put a pedo in a robe and think it's teaching people lessons?
I ain't gonna slow down this is leading to aggression
When I sleep, I'm transcending is this leading to depression? No
Whatever you're getting lied to
Send you crazy when you find truth
Thinking when they gonna fall?
The enemy of all of us
[Interlude:]
What are you doing?
May I please go back to prison?
Not yet
[Bridge:]
Thinking when they gonna fall?
The enemy of all of us
[Hook:]
Will we ever know the truth?
I dunno, Is it better if we don't?
Are we ever gonna get to see
The meaning of it all?
The enemy of all of us
Will we ever know the truth?
Is it better if we don't? I dunno
Are we ever gonna get to see
The meaning of it all?
The enemy of all of us
[Verse 2:]
Wait
We're caught in a web of deceit
From TVs to medication numbing your head as you sleep
They banned the only plant that saved my head from all the dreams
Quick to give me something worse it had me off and sick for weeks
So I started to learn
And fuck there's money to be earned
Why a private bank invest in medical research?
Private banks hold a government to ransom
Joint ventures with their companies they operate in tandem
From medicine to media and food that they're controlling
Stupid people on TV what they feed you is revolting
Look at how they trapped you on your phone you got your life on it
Social media competing meet your wife on it
People have to sit in prison learn to hate the world
Judges travel overseas and pay for little girls
So which way lean the scales of justice?
Most of us hate cops, trust me it's justified
What you were told it was just a lie
Seems they're only here to just divide
When they raided man I'm not surprised
They pushed my pregnant missus the floor just to get inside
The punishment it didn't fit the crime
Swear I'm having dreams of taking all their motherfucker's lives
Yea you're fucking right
They took away our freedoms martial law it happened over night
[Hook:]
Will we ever know the truth?
I dunno, Is it better if we don't?
Are we ever gonna get to see
The meaning of it all?
The enemy of all of us
Will we ever know the truth?
Is it better if we don't? I dunno
Are we ever gonna get to see
The meaning of it all?
The enemy of all of us
[Bridge:]
Thinking when they gonna fall?
The enemy of all of us
[Verse 3:] x4
We ain't digging up a single grave watch us slip away
I'm way far away from the mess you've made
I think we're living too fast imprisoned us from the start
Away far away from the mess you've made
