Rage Against The Machine - Know Your Enemy Lyrics

[realsmoky1995]

Stop the war between Rage Against the Machine and Green Day!

Punk rock must be united!

No matter if Hip Hop Punk or Commercial Punk, it is still PUNK!

We need a REVOLUTION!

KNOW YOUR ENEMY, GREEN DAY FANS!

KNOW YOUR ENEMY, RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE FANS!

KNOW YOUR ENEMY, PEOPLE!

[nightwolfsnow]

Maynard?!?! NO WAY!!! He has such great taste in music <3

[boywiththeblackveil]

post this on your governments page on facebook. everyone! fuck the system!

[neoman289151]

RATM: Rise Against and Linkin Park put together

and I LOVE IT FOR THAT!!!

[GoldenSmurf14]

@neoman289151 Rage Against The Machine was formed before Rise Against and Likin Park. Also Likin Park is the gayest band out right now, its barely rock...

[neoman289151]

@GoldenSmurf14 Gayest band right now, but it used to be awesome.

Now it's just.... not...

[GoldenSmurf14]

@neoman289151 LP just sound like techno with some lame rap lyrics, but then again Rage is rap with some hardcore instrumentals, but its not gangster rap of course

[HARDYBOY33]

fuckin a, maynard james keenan got down on a rage song

[Knickso1990]

Hu yeah

[MrZippy247]

Fuck yeeeaaa! I see this shit every day. I get fucked with by pigs on my BICYCLE because of how i dress, fitting a stereotype. I say "FUCK THE PIGS!!" The don't know the first thing about me as a person. RAGE ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[Atlantis714]

OWS Anthem

[befsack]

rage 4eva best band in the world

[thefiquirock13]

FUCK MAN FUCK!!!!!!! Lets A ROCK!!!!!!!!!!

[ElDuffmano]

13 people dont know thier enemies...

[jeffreyjgnash]

the dislike bar is like lady gaga's dick, it shouldn't be there and is really small.

[freddythefish100]

intro is absalutly sick

[henrydaved]

sorry green day fans, wrong song...

[DaringDarkness]

IS THIS A BAND ANYMOR?

[BlastFromYesterday]

@DaringDarkness No. You can listen to Tom, Tim, and Brad with Cris Cornell in Audioslave. I like their music with Rage Against the Machine much more though.

[thebigfour13]

@DaringDarkness Yeah, but they don't have they're singer Zach, and now they're just doing covers.

[The3rdOpinion]

this song makes me feel more emo than usual

[IHAVECHOSSENTHISNAME]

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 WICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS!!

[ofabmx]

as i move in to 2012 im still in a room without a view.

[chinshihuandi]

there are clearly some wrong words in this video

[tuktara]

best intro ever OMG hese guys esed to be so intense

[iluvgreenday666]

I'm a huge green day fan (just look at my username) but green day's "know your enemy" totally sucks compared to this!

[neonXxXraves]

Why are some of you guys arguing on who's a better band, i realize Green Day and Rage Against The Machine have song titles in common...but thats no much of a reason to troll on other peoples' oppinions. I happen to think both bands are quite great [:

peace...anyone?

[AgainstYTubePolicy17]

Gotta love the bass on that intro!

[timman183]

@TAYLORGANG347 with a lil bit of RAGE

[WinglessAngel136]

@timman183 Zack iz hispanic nt black

[10dknuckles]

he is mexican and Irish

green day sucks

[10dknuckles]

he is mexican and Irish

[SacreligiousPorkchop]

@TAYLORGANG347 I think he's just mexican but I could be wrong

[frickoffmf]

.... :/

[slimanuspsycho]

ashanti



[69Lemonparty]

[965Ferrari]

[xMcSkilLz]

[thunderball5001]

greenday wishes they featured a member of tool

[testadiminkia93]

3:05

[crazebox66]

did green day remake this? oh no there are more words in this than just do you know your enemy know your enemy

[2653210]

EPIC SONG! Subscribed :D

[Averagelifeofme]

I just went to Green Day's video and posted "ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS"

[GamersEdge196]

Fuk the norm! We'll break in!

[RustyRocktopus]

as much as i love RAGE, its hard to take lyrics serious about well...raging against the sytem, when theyre just as big a cog in it as justin beiber is....mtv, major record labels etc...all just money in the hands of the puppeteers =/

[somertonlord]

@RustyRocktopus They write their own lyrics and virtually produce their own music!

[RustyRocktopus]

@somertonlord so you mean to tell me that because they write theyre own lyrics and "virtually produce their own music" epic records, owned by sony, or mtv, Kroq, other radio stations, etc...are seeing no money for RAGE's work? do you think they would be promoted if they didnt? think about it...definately take theyre lyrics to heart, but that doesnt change the fact that there is a bit of hypocrisy in the things they say....

[somertonlord]

@RustyRocktopus Well it cant be all Sunshine and Lollypops,, Without some1 to promote them we wudnt even hav heard of them,, Theyr using the System, to spread Sh*t about the system! Epic records can keep theyre stupid money, RATM doesnt care about Benjamins!! Theyre all about the Music!

[RustyRocktopus]

@somertonlord do you think sony music gives a damn waht RATM says? theyve packaged revolution to sell theyre music, just like many many before them...these companies have made BANK off of these bands, theres no working within the system to break it your only strengthening it when your a cog....there are groups that do not have a major recordlabel that are working outside the machine to promote revolution....look up Lowkey, Akala, Immortal technique, thers a good youtube channel globalfaction

[somertonlord]

@RustyRocktopus Yes i know of those people but In the 90s it was probably harder to promote your music that way,, i mean Souja boy became a hit just by posting his low key dance moves on youtube,, Nowadays we got 13 year Olds writing and producing their own music! But back in the days that was virtually impossible, 1/2 of it is down to the internet!

[Diablo1980ify]

Family get arrested for smuggling garden furniture through customs!! Rewards vary for help to identify pig like creature seen laughing! Marshans like furniture of all different types and colour.. this is not a joke! Humpty dumptys glass eye and glow in the dark eye patch with flashing leds is up for grabs for all you doctors and firemen who are willing to tidy nuns vauxhall corsa ashtray.. All gnomes will report to the docking bay tarmac statue goal posts for immediate instructions

[tanvo93]

@Diablo1980ify DUDE PEOPLE ARE GETTING ARRESTED FOR DANCING AT THE JEFFERSON MEMORIAL..TALK ABOUT DENYING SYMBOLIC SPEECH!!!

[Orangeapple247]

woah, i haven't been on my youtube account for years! Didn't realise this got to over a 100k of views! Thanks so much guys, keep listening to great music!

[andyrew21397]

@SuperGilberto1977 U MAD BRO?

[SuperGilberto1977]

@andyrew21397 how u knoe dis

[Orangeapple247]

@SuperGilberto1977 I'm telling..

[TheZer0960]

Eh. alright. i don't rate them in the top 100.

[xXDinoman1997Xx]

Why do Rage Against The Machine naturally sound so awsome?

[bellecar161]

bought their shirt by accident thinking it was for rise against and wow...accidents sure are the best surpise xD

[awesomeges2010]

12 bieber-heads have been here *shudders*

[TheKeess]

12 people didn't know their enemy before it was too late.

[Omnilegence]

Youtube comments... Insanity meets stupidity meets complete lack of consequence for abuse of the aforementioned. Particularly the ones who post those cliché comments (dislike bar size, JB etc).

People whom get thumbed down should be electrocuted for an hour per thumb down. Adjudicated of course by someone of pure mind, like Niels Bohr.

[timman183]

as i was trying to think of an epic comment for this song i realized....... there is nothing to be said, its great as it is

[DeprSuicSayhoun]

Not bad

[nj4fernan]

O c'm this is rap vs rock !!! Amazing : ) ; )

[Steve1229645]

Maynard! James! Keenan!

[boywiththeblackveil]

i like both green day and rage, green day more thoo, love 'em both so stop bashing and enjoy the music.

[GreenDayMnority]

@boywiththeblackveil Me too. (As you can see from my username.) I love Rage Against The Machine though. They're just awesome. Haha, even my history teacher loves them, which is pretty cool. XD

[NovemberVictor22]

can anyone please explain what "dick with this" means? Sorry, my English is not that good :)

[kiy1999]

@NovemberVictor22 he said get with this but the uploader put it in wrong and get meant" listen to what im saying join and get with it" ;D

[NovemberVictor22]

@kiy1999 ah I get it! Thanks! :D

[MrDealwithit23]

@NovemberVictor22 it means pennis anus uranus your private part your middle partyour ding da ling your pencil your subway foot long your girl atracter your ruler i think that should cover it your welcome

[PrincessZelda527]

I remember in 7th grade writing "ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS" about 10 times in my agenda.... then I got in trouble for not paying attention in class O_O

[timberwolves100]

Who are those "Teachers"?

The Rulers of the world. The men behind the curtain. The Elite. Illuminati.

[timberwolves100]

Last minute of the song is legendary.

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.

TRUE!

[zachdelarocha111]

favorite band ever screw the 9 of you that dont get this music

[202roller]

I WANA SMASH SHIT!

[MrVforvendetta10]

i think every american needs to see these lyrics, because they don't know the enemy!

[Natorama9650]

good shit right here! <3

[TheJgill11]

the guitar fucking rocks in this

[JohnTightlips]

Maynard thumbs up!!!!!

[blackrook96]

@JohnTightlips Tool is the Shit!

[Tedunnizzlejiz]

I agree, greenday are not a band id favour

But putting them down, making them less popular only leaves rock music weaker, id much rather those viewers stayed on rock videos rather than running off to the modern mainstream, "RnB" Bullshit.

[Jorfo]

This song in already unreal but with Maynard in it akes it to a new level of awesome we can begin to explain

[h2rryp0tter]

doctor: right, Zach, now we both know about our enemies but could you please tell me something about your friends?

[lilfoss66]

You're already wasting a good song by making your petty "announcement" on here.

And you're also giving the kid more attention than needed.

Just boycott it. Damn.
