Know Your Enemy - Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium, Los Angeles, CA - September 2000

We're comin' back then with another bombtrack
Ah yeah, you know what song is that, yeah

Know your enemy
Come on

Born with insight and a raised fist
A witness to the slit wrist, that's with
Move into '92
Still in a room without a view
Ya got to know, ya got to know
That when I say

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 mike, 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
Come on

Word is born
Fight the war
Now I got no patience
So sick of complacence
D the E, F the I, A the N, and C the E
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
'Cause 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)

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

Come on

Come on

Yes I know my enemies
They're the teachers who taught me to fight me
Compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission
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
