Enemy

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
 Oh, the misery
 Everybody wants to be my enemy
 Spare the sympathy
 Everybody wants to be my enemy
 Look out for yourself!
 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 (misery)
 Everybody wants to be my enemy (enemy)
 Spare the sympathy
 Everybody wants to be my enemy
 Look out for yourself!
 My enemy
 They say, "Pray it away"
 I swear that I'll never be a saint, no way
 A chair in the corner is my place, I stay
 I shake, and I think about the powers at play, the powers at play
 And the kids in the dark that were doomed from the start
 The child in the basement, face to the pavement
 Oh, what a statement, love is embracement
 Love is a constant, love is a basis
 He cannot be, she cannot be, they cannot be changed
 But keep on praying
 Goodbye
