Enemy
[minus.driver] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The rest of my day is spent tearing me in my departments
Left no choice but to do what i didn't think was possible
Anchord reality finds me bothered in peices.
Enemy decides who i will be
Now i'm penalized and lost
Can't find the end of me
I've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
Can be that easily taken by what is left to see
I know my inner pride is cause for my skin to hive
Damaged behaivor leaves me no room for mercy.
Enemy decides who i will be
Now i'm penalized and lost
Can't find the end of me
I've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
I've got one you don't
You let them know
I'm tired
I see you
You're a liar
You felt good.
Enemy decides who iwill be
Now i'm penalized and lost
Can't find the end of me
I've got one life to live in this world i've sinned in.
Can't find the end of me
Can't find the end of me
Can't find the end of me
Can't see the enemy.
The lyrics of [minus.driver]'s "Enemy" are a reflection of the internal struggle of the singer, who feels like they have no control over their life. The opening lines, "If I cannot decide what I will wake up and look like, the rest of my day is spent tearing me in my departments," suggest that the singer suffers from a lack of self-awareness or self-esteem, and feels like they are at the mercy of their own thoughts and emotions. The line "Enemy decides who I will be" highlights how external factors, specifically other people or societal expectations, have a profound impact on the singer's identity.
The chorus, "Now I'm penalized and lost, can't find the end of me, I've got one life to live in this world I've sinned in," adds to the theme of feeling helpless and trapped in one's own existence. The use of words such as "penalized" and "sin" evoke a sense of punishment or guilt, which could suggest that the singer feels like they are being punished for something out of their control.
The final lines of the song, "Can't find the end of me, can't see the enemy," suggest that the singer is unable to find a way out of their situation, and cannot even identify who or what is causing their struggles. The repetition of these lines adds to the sense of hopelessness and desperation that permeates the song.
Overall, "Enemy" is a powerful commentary on the impact of external factors on one's sense of self, and the struggle to find agency and identity in a world that can feel overwhelming and oppressive.

Enemy (feat. J.I.D)
(Look out for yourself)
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-y-y-y-y
(Look out for yourself)
My enemy-y-y-y-y
(Look out for yourself)
But I'm ready
Your words up on the wall as you'rе praying for my fall
And the laughter in thе 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-y-y-y-y
(Look out for yourself)
My enemy-y-y-y-y (yeah)
(Look out for yourself)
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's on my trail, my energy unavailable
I'ma tell 'em: Hasta luego
They wanna plot on my trot to the top
I've been outta shape, thinking 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 shockin' they wanted a static with precision I'm automatic quaterback
I ain't talking sacking, pack it, pack it up,
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
(Look out for yourself)

@@doobster3650 Aaah, yeah, you mean that company who has a thousand of demands of sexual harassment and laboral explotation, yeah.
The same guys who sell their mothers to change the Runaterra Lore to sell a fucking champion or a Skin to a shitty game who only cares of money.
Yeah definetly, Riot better than Rockstar.
The best place to work.
The fans make it possible, not Riot games.

They even made animations for this music video that doesn’t include scenes in the series. The amount of work and effort put into Arcane is just superbly amazing and jaw dropping! chef’s kiss

@luigidragon
Warriors was such a good song and hype when it happened, glad they came back to flip the nostalgia and endorphins in my head to make this song and video godlike
@drwooga9149
Agreed, this and the fact that the video reminds me of get jinxed is such a nostalgia trip.
@abhrajitpaul2744
Then why don't you do a 24 hours Jinx or Vi challenge when Arcane drops? 🌝
