Lyrics
Know Your Enemy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Bow down to no one
Resist the system
Lost in uncertainty, divided in our strife
No comprehension of the conflict of our lives
Become enslaved in a technological haze
In the crosshairs of a weapon that dissuades our brains
The target is in sight
Mental imprisonment
They'll take you down from the inside (inside)
Self-destruction on command
Resist and fight back
Our minds under attack
Destroy their authority
And know your enemy
Protest, demonstrate
We must retaliate
Bow down to no one
And know your enemy, yeah
Locked and loaded, waiting to explode (explode)
Pawns of illusion subjugating to control
Resist and fight back
Our minds under attack
Destroy their authority
And know your enemy
Protest, demonstrate
We must retaliate
Bow down to no one
And know your enemy
It runs much deeper than you think
You'll never see who pulls the strings
You've got to know, know your enemy
Force-fed illusions
In this world of confusion
You have to know, know your enemy
The target is in sight
Bow down to no one
Resist the system
Bow down to no one (bow down to no one)
Resist the system and fight back
They can't subjugate a mind that's free
No more force-fed reality
Resist and fight back
Our minds under attack
Destroy their authority
And know your enemy
Protest, demonstrate
We must retaliate
Bow down to no one
And know your enemy
They'll take you down from the inside
Resist and fight back
And know your enemy
