Know Your Enemy
Dead Prez

Uh, know what I mean?

I can't believe these niggas

Gon' flip they scurve, these niggas, what?

Mo'fuckin' star spangled banner shit


Yeah, I can't even yo, fuck that

I'm not fuckin' with this shit

I'm not fuckin' with none of these niggas

Red, white and blue thugs, now

Uh


That's how it's goin' down niggas

Straight R.B.G.'s, for life, for life

(R.B.G.'s)

Y'all talk bout the rocks on your watch

Know that

Y'all niggas don't even know what time it is

Yeah, uh, you betta


Know your enemy, know yourself that's the politic

George Bush is way worse than bin laden is

Know your enemy, know yourself that's the politic

F.B.I., C.I.A., the real terrorists


Know your enemy, know yourself that's the politic

George Bush is way worse than bin laden is

Know your enemy, know yourself that's the politic

C.I.A., F.B.I. the real terrorists


You got to watch what you say in these days and times

It's a touchy situation, lotta fear and emotion

September 11th, televised world-wide

Suicide planes fallin' like bombs from out the sky


They wasn't aimin' at us not at my house

They hit The World Trade, The Pentagon

And almost got The White House

Now everybody walkin' 'round patriotic

How we gon' fight to keep freedom when we ain't got it?


You wanna stop terrorists?

Start with the U.S. imperialists

Ain't no track record like America's, see

Bin Laden was trained by the C.I.A

But I guess if you a terrorist for the U.S

Then it's okay, uh, uh


They try to make us think we crazy

But I know what they doin', they tryna put us back in slavery

Check it, to get on welfare you gotta get your fingerprints

Soon ya gotta do eye scans to get your benefits


Now they got them cards to swipe, ain't no more food stamps

Should a seen it comin', now it's too late to get amped

And everything got a bar code

So they know what you got, when you got it and what you still owe



You seen them projects, lately you better watch it

Why they got us surrounded if money is the object?

Why they use satellites to keep track of the criminals?

Why they puttin' jails in schools, is it subliminal?


Cameras everywhere to protect us from one another

Or is it the undercover, disguised as big brother

And even freedom of speech is limited

Mad leaders done spoke up and look at what these cracks did


Know your enemy, know yourself that's the politic

George Bush is way worse than bin laden is

Know your enemy, know yourself that's the politic

F.B.I., C.I.A., the real terrorists


Know your enemy, know yourself that's the politic

George Bush is way worse than bin laden is

Know your enemy, know yourself that's the politic

C.I.A., F.B.I. the real terrorists


And you ain't got to believe me go 'head and listen to Bush

The dope pusher on the TV what you think the war is for?

'Cause the greedy wantin' more and more

We be hustlin' the corridor


I would never join the military

One soldier to another, nigga holla if ya hear me

Goin' out to the best sons and daughters

Don't be a lamb gettin' led to the slaughter


I'ma keep ridin' when my momma released

Cause ain't no stoppin' us now, dawg

Freedom before peace, uh


They got a plan for us?

We got a plan for them and this time we gon' win

Who in, you out, you in? No doubt, we men

Ain't no ridin' the fence it's called self-defense


It makes sense

When they tell us we gotta shackles on our brains

(Say what?)

I'll be damned if I sit here and let them put us back in chains


At the bonfires of the city

I've seen blood

(A what?)

Blood

(A what?)

Blood

(A what?)
