know your enemy

nefis bir rage against the machine şarkısı

sözleri ise şöyledir;

Huh!
Yeah, we're comin' back then with another bombtrack
Think ya know what it's all about
Huh!
Hey yo, so check this out
Yeah!
Know your enemy!
Come on!

Born with insight and a raised fist
A witness to the slit wrist, that's with
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 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!
Yeah!

Hey yo, and dick with this...uggh!
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
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 mike, 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...
Know your enemy!

Come on!
Yes I know my enemies
They're the teachers who taught me to fight me
Compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission
Ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite
All of which are American dreams (8x)
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
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams

Bu sözlerle amerikan politikalarının neler üzerine kurulduğunu gayet iyi açıklayan rage against the machine şarkısıdır.

mayıs ayında çıkması planlanan yeni green day albümünün * ilk single'ı.. umarız albüm beklenildiği kadar sağlamdır.. buyrun sözleri;

do you know the enemy?
do you know your enemy?
well, gotta know the enemy

violence is an energy
against the enemy
violence is an energy

bringing on the fury
the choir infantry
revolt against the honor to obey

overthrow the effigy
the vast majority
burning down the foreman of control

silence is the enemy
against your urgency
so rally up the demons of your soul

the insurgency will rise
when the bloods been sacrificed
don't be blinded by the lies
in your eyes

violence is an energy
from here to eternity
violence is an energy
silence is the enemy
so gimme gimme revolution

fazla tutulmamış green day şarkısı.
eski green day şarkılarının yanında vasatın çok altında kalması, tutulmamasının en büyük sebebi.

harikulade bir green day şarkısı.

saitama super arena daki live performansıda harikadır. şurdan izleyebilirsiniz.

(yukarıdan çarpıyorum)
'Cause I'll rip the mike, rip the stage, rip the system
I was born to rage against 'em

söylemek istediklerim yukarıda söylenmiş zaten. üstün olarak empoze edilen amerikan kültürünün aslında ne gibi rezil temeller üzerine kurulu olduğundan dem vurur. benim bildiğim amerikan kültürü üzerine bir diğer eleştiri içeren şarkı da david bowie'nin i'm afraid of americans şarkısıdır.
