Know Your Enemy Lyrics by He Knows

Autonomist

2019

We're drowning, we're in so deep, ugh
Eyes drifting from counting sheep, ugh
Ugh
It's getting hotter
This machine's out of order
When it's late it's too late
Politicians jump ship when things get heated
Things get heated
Keep your notes of promise
I am more than a cog in a system of profit

Misaligned from our destiny
Do you know your enemy?
We're in a war, this is a battle ground
We're fighting each other like a pack of hounds
Self-centered, no compromise
No one can see past their own miserable lives
The system breeds insecurity
Always needing more to be happy

A pack of wolves
Carnivores
Looking for an easy score
Who are they working for?
No price is too high to pay
Do you know your enemy?
A balance act
What goes up comes down
There's no point hiding
The wolves out on the prowl
There's no say in this tuned machine
Do you know your enemy?

We're drowning, we're in so deep, ugh
Eyes drifting from counting sheep, ugh
Ugh
It's getting hotter
This machine's out of order
When it's late it's too late
Politicians jump ship when things get heated
Things get heated
Keep your notes of promise
I am more than a cog in a system of profit

The system is killing us
Economic prisoners
Be a good citizen
Pay your tax
Destruction is imminent
But please stay relaxed
While the blind are leading us over the edge of a cliff
Our pockets are green but our hearts stopped beating
Money's become our common myth

And though it's still a mass denial
The biggest enemy's within

Clock ticks a minute to midnight
I can hear the words echo from hindsight
If we could do it again, how would we do it different?
Now that we know what we're doing
Would we change it all?
Thought we swore we'd try
To make an effort make another life
If we could do it again, how would we do it different?
What would we prioritize if we could change it?

Clock ticks a minute to midnight
I can hear the words echo from hindsight
If we could do it again, how would we do it different?
Now that we know what we're doing
Would we change it all?
Thought we swore we'd try
To make an effort make another life
If we could do it again, how would we do it different?
What would we prioritize if we could change it all?

A pack of wolves
Carnivores
Looking for an easy score
Who are they working for?
No price is too high to pay
Do you know your enemy?
A balance act
What goes up comes down
There's no point hiding
The wolves out on the prowl
There's no say in this tuned machine
Do you know your enemy?
