Animosity
Rancid [1993] Lyrics

Break down the fear
Overcome your fear

I got my animosity
I have my hostility and aggression

I'm gonna break it down
I will destroy the source of my anger

Armageddon is coming so you better start running
A catastrophic event is imminent, so flee for safety

Cause the big wave is coming to the shore
A major change that will affect many people is approaching

No surprise that you see through the lies
It's not unexpected that you recognize the falsehoods

Of the system that's rotten to the core
The governing structure is corrupt to its foundations

High tech surveillance
Advanced monitoring technology

Paranoia and violence
Mistrust and aggression

Keeping the city at a calm
Maintaining peace in the urban area

Helicopters coming down on me tonight
Choppers are descending towards me this evening

My brother selling cocaine he knows how to fight
My sibling trades drugs and is skilled in combat

Hounded and harassed in a power elite bought
Pursued and mistreated in a society ruled by the wealthy

Sun ain't arise so I abide by my route
The sun has not appeared, so I adhere to my path

I remember a cold December when I heard the revolution rock
I recollect a chilly December when I listened to the call for a revolt

Didn't hear what they were saying I ran through the mayhem
I didn't understand their message; I ran amidst the chaos

Of a police state on my block
In a neighborhood with an oppressive law enforcement presence

Break it down
Dismantle it

Tear it apart
Rip it to shreds

The city's going off
The metropolis is erupting

Like a bomb
In a sudden, explosive manner
