We All Lost Today

[Lightning]

Know Your Enemy

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, **** 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
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

that's nice

 

[CHARLESMANSON]

Thank god you are no longer a proud American...have fun in Canada! Glad to see the Democratic party in SHAMBLES!

You are hoping for an assisination??

You're right Jack.....time to get rid of your MadJacks political thread, it's reached THE ULTIMATE LOW.

 

[treynolds]

Yeah we all lost all 58,882,920 who decided to vote for bush. We all won pal

 

[Kdogg21]

i dont know how we all lost, bush won, kerry lost. i voted for kerry, but im not going to sit here and cry and bitch about it. support your president and your senators and reps, democratic or republican.

 

[spibble spab]

As Americans ... we ALL lost today. I am no longer a proud American.

We deserve what we get for re-electing this power hungry greedy SOB.

This should be a National Day of mourning for our lost country.

We can only hope for assassination!

See, Jack, this is the kind of crap that im talking about. Im all for the first amendment, (this idiot probably doesnt know that our president is the President of The United States and part of his job is to uphold that very freedom. I think the freedom stops when we start talking about assassinating the President of the United States.
I am very sad that this individual feels this way.
If Kerry were elected, As an PROUD AMERICANi would NEVER, EVER, wish
for Kerry to be gunned down, ever!. I disagree with John Kerry, politically. Just like I disagree with alot of you on how our country should be run. But with morons like "lightning" say that our President needs to be assassinated, I think this political forum should be closed. We have poked, oke prodded, and taunted :moon: each other politically and personally :hitwithro in this forum but we shouldnt tolerate some idiot saying the president should be shot, dead. I'd ban him IMHO
What a testament to public education you are, Lightning. Love America or leave it! Right?

 

[CHARLESMANSON]

KDogg...thanks man. That's class. :toast:

 

[Lightning]

THAT'S RIGHT ... THE 1ST AMENDMENT ... MY RIGHT TO SAY AND FEEL HOW I WANT TO

 

[Mjolnir]

Lightning.
we all lost. completely ridiculous comment.
Bush got more popular votes than any president in HISTORY.
if its so horrible move to France.

 

[CHARLESMANSON]

Lightning....you said you wanted the president assasinated, then when everyone jumps on your ass, you edit your post?


Mjolnir is right......there is a perfect place for sissys like you....it's called FRANCE!

 

[Lightning]

FAWK YOU CHARLIE MANSON ... I AM JUST TRYING TO SHOW YOU WHAT IT'S WOULD BE LIKE IF YOUR 1ST AMENDMENT RIGHTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN AWAY BY IDIOTS LIKE YOU!

 

[Lightning]

I didn't say I would assassinate him ... I just won't be sad when it happens!

 

[CHARLESMANSON]

Sorry bro, but you DID you say you wanted the president assasinated. We all saw it. Now it's EDITTED!!!

And why would I personally take away your first Amendment rights? I don't get it.

Anyway you can elaborate without cussing and yelling at me?

 

[IntenseOperator]

KDogg=Class :clap:

Lightning=Dope

 

[DoMyDermBest]

Your post was censored, But if you even hinted about anything like the rebuttals suggest , I think I may lose something today. Lunch. Too bad its not in your face!

 

[Lightning]

In a violent world
Where the sun shones free
Things I can't control
Taking over me
Till they try to take
My identity
So what the hell
Have they done to me!

I will take your thoughts away
And I'll ignite your fear today
Well I can take you far away
With my mind

Life for me
Changes everyday
I will stand up tall
I won't be betrayed
If you play with fire
I'll control the flame
I'll do anything
So that you believe!

I will take your thoughts away
And I'll ignite your fear today
Well I can take you far away
With my mind

I will take your thoughts away
And I'll ignite your fear today
Well I can take you far away
With my mind

I'll take all your thoughts away
And I'll ingnite your fear today
Well I can take you far away
With my mind

 

[Lightning]

A mass of hands press on the market window
Ghosts of progess
Dressed in slow death
Feeding on hunger
And glaring through the promise
Upon the food that rots slowly in the aisle
A mass of nameless at the oasis
That hides the graves benath the master's hill
Are buried for drinking
The river's water
While shackled to the line
At the empty well

This is the new sound
Just like the old sound
just like the noose wound
Over the new ground

Listen to the facist sing
"Take hope here
War is elsewhere
You were chosen
This is god's land
Soon we'll be free
Of blot and mixture
Seeds planted by our
Forefather's hand"

A mass of promises
Begin to rupture
Like the pockets
Of the new world kings
Like swollen stomachs
In Appalachia
Like the priest that ****ed you
As he whispered holy things
A mass of tears have transformed to stones now
Sharpened on suffering
And woven into slings
Hope lies in the rubble of this rich fortress
Taking today what tomorrow never brings

This is the new sound
Just like the old sound
Just like the noose wound
Over the new ground

Ain't the new sound
Just like the old sound
Look at the noose now
Over the, Over the, Over the burning ground

Ain't it funny how the factories doors close
Round the time that the school doors close
Round the time that the doors of the jail cells
Open up to greet you like the reaper

Ain't it funny how the factories doors close
Round the time that the school doors close
Round the time that a hundred thousand jail cells
Open up to greet you like the reaper

This is the new sound
Just like the old sound
Just like the noose wound
Over the new ground

Like ashes in the fall

 

[smurphy]

I feel Lightng's pain. For some of us, it will take longer to move on than others.

It's a divided country. It will stay divided. Let him vent.

 

[Lightning]

The movie ran through me
The glamour subdue me
The tabloid untie me
I'm empty please fill me
Mister anchor assure me
That Baghdad is burning
Your voice it is so soothing
That cunning mantra of killing
I need you my witness
To dress this up so bloodless
To numb me and purge me now
Of thoughts of blaming you
Yes the car is our wheelchair
My witness your coughing
Oily silence mocks the legless
Now traveling in coffins
But on the corner
The jury's sleepless
We found your weakness
And it's right outside our door

Now testify

With precision you feed me
My witness I'm hungry
Your temple it calms me
So I can carry on
My slaving sweating the skin right off my bones
On a bed of fire I'm choking on the smoke that fills my home
The wrecking ball rushing
My witness your blushing
The pipeline is gushing
While here we lie in tombs
While on the corner
The jury's sleepless
We found your weakness
And it's right outside your door

Now testify

Mass graves for the pump and the price is set

Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now controls the past
Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now?

Now testify

 

[Lightning]

The world is my expense
The cost of my desire
Jesus blessed me with its future
And I protect it with fire
So raise your fists
And march around
Just dont take what you need
Ill jail and bury those committed
And smother the rest in greed
Crawl with me into tomorrow
Or Ill drag you to your grave
Im deep inside your children
Theyll betray you in my name

Hey, Hey
Sleep now in the fire
Hey, Hey
Sleep now in the fire

The lie is my expense
The scope of my desire
The party blessed me with its future
And I protect it with fire
I am the Nina The Pinta The Santa Maria
The noose and the rapist
The fields overseer
The agents of orange
The priests of Hiroshima
The cost of my desire
Sleep now in the fire

Hey, Hey
Sleep now in the fire
Hey, Hey
Sleep now in the fire

For its the end of history
Its caged and frozen still
There is no other pill to take
So swallow the one
That made you ill
The Nina The Pinta The Santa Maria
The noose and the rapist
The fields overseer
The agents of orange
The priests of Hiroshima
The cost of my desire
Sleep now in the fire

Yeaaaaaah

Sleep now in the fire
Sleep now in the fire
Sleep now in the fire
Sleep now in the fire
