Rage Against the Machine Know Your Enemy Lyrics

Yeah, we’re comin’ back there with another bombtrack
Think ya know it’s all of that
Hey yo, so check this out, yeah
Know your enemy!
Come on

Born with insight and a raised fist
A witness to the slit wrist
As we move into ’92
Still in a room without a view
Ya got to know, ya got to know
That when I say go, go, go
Amp up and amplify
Defy
I’m a brother with a furious mind
Action must be taken
We don’t need the key, we’ll break in
Something must be done
About vengeance, a badge and a gun
So I’ll rip the mic, rip the stage, rip the system
I was born to rage against ’em
Fist in ya face, in the place and I’ll drop the style clearly
Know your enemy
Know your enemy!
Yeah
Hey yo, get with this

Word is born
Fight the war, f___ the norm
Now I got no patience
So sick of complacence
With the D the E the F the I the A the N the C the E
The mind of a revolutionary
So clear the lane
The finger to the land of the chains
What? The land of the free?
Whoever told you that is your enemy
Now something must be done
About vengeance, a badge and a gun
So I’ll rip the mic, rip the stage, rip the system
I was born to rage against ’em
Now action must be taken
We don’t need the key, we’ll break in

[Maynard James Keenan of Tool]
I’ve got no patience now
So sick of complacence now
I’ve got no patience now
So sick of complacence now
Sick of, sick of, sick of, sick of you
Time has come to pay

[Zack de la Rocha]
Know your enemy!

Come on
Yes, I know my enemies
They’re the teachers who taught me to fight me
Compromise
Conformity
a__imilation
Submission
Ignorance
Hypocrisy
Brutality
The elite
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
