I wake up to the sounds
of the silence
that allows
For my mind to run
around with my ear
up to the ground
I'm searching to behold
the stories that are told
When my back is to
the world that was
smiling when I turned
Tell you you're
the greatest
But once you turn
they hate us
Oh, the misery
Everybody wants
to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants
to be my enemy
My enemy
But I'm ready
Your words up on
the wall as you're
praying for my fall
And the laughter in
the halls and the names
that I've been called
I stack it in my mind
and I'm waiting
for the time
When I show you what
it's like to be words
spit in a mic
Tell you you're
the greatest
But once you
turn they hate us
Oh, the misery
Everybody wants
to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants to be
My enemy
My enemy
Uh, look
Okay, I'm hoping that
somebody pray for me
I'm praying that
somebody hope for me
I'm staying where
nobody 'posed to be
P-P-Posted, being a
wreck of emotions
Ready to go whenever,
just let me know
The road is long, so put
the pedal into the floor
The enemy on my trail,
my energy unavailable
I'ma tell 'em hasta luego
I know they wanna plot
on my trot to the top
I've been outta shape,
thinkin' out the box,
I'm an astronaut
I blasted off the planet
rock to cause
catastrophe
And it matters more
because I had it not
Had I thought about
wreaking havoc
on an opposition
Kinda shocking they
wanted static with
precision, I'm automatic
Quarterback, I
ain't talkin' sacking
Pack it, pack it up,
I don't panic
Batter, batter up,
who the baddest
It don't matter
'cause we at ya throat
Everybody wants
to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants to be
My enemy
Oh, the misery
Everybody wants
to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants
to be my enemy
Pray it away, I swear
I'll never be a
saint, no way
My enemy
Pray it away, I swear
I'll never be a saint
