Animosity Lyrics by Rancid

Rancid (1993)

1993

Break down the fear
I got my animosity
Break down the fear
I got my animosity
I'm gonna break it down
I'm gonna break it down

Armageddon is coming so you better start running
Cause the big wave's coming to the shore
No surprise that you see through the lies
Of the system that's rotten to the core
High tech surveillance, paranoia and violence
Keeping the city at a calm
Break it down break it down, tear it apart
The city's going off like a bomb

Break down the fear
I got my animosity
Break down the fear
I got my animosity
I'm gonna break it down
I'm gonna break it down

Helicopters coming down on me tonight
My brother's selling cocaine, he knows how to fight
Hounded and harrassed in a power elite bought
Sun ain't arise so I abide by my route
Helicopters coming down on me tonight
My brother's selling cocaine, he knows how to fight

Break down the fear
I got my animosity
Break down the fear
I got my animosity
I'm gonna break it down
I'm gonna break it down

Tonight's the night

I remember a cold December
When I heard the revolution rock
Didn't hear what they were saying
I ran through the mayhem of a police state on my block
High tech surveillance, paranoia and violence
Keeping the city at a calm
Break it down, break it down, tear it apart
The city's going off like a bomb

Break down the fear
I got my animosity
Break down the fear
I got my animosity
I'm gonna break it down
I'm gonna break it down
