Lyrics Know Your Enemy - Demo - Rage Against the Machine

Oh yeah
Comin' back then with another bombtrack, huh
Come on
It's just a little bit of that clean fun, huh

Know your enemy

Huh

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
'Cause I'll rip the mic, rip the stage, I'll rip the system
I was born to rage against 'em
Fist in ya face, in the place
And I'll drop the style clearly, yeah

Know your enemy

Know your enemy
Huh
Come on

Check this out
Word is born
Fight the war, fuck 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
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

Know your enemy

Yeah
You got to know your enemy
The more you're fool, not thinking, not fighting on it
They try to make that fuckin' bullshit money
And if you get the middle finger you are the man
'Cause it ain't about that
Something's got to be done, huh
And you've got to know your enemy
Yeah
