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 searchin' to behold the stories that are told When my back is to the world that was smilin' 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, look, look, look) (Look out for yourself) but I'm ready Your words up on the wall as you're prayin' 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 (huh) Oh, the misery Everybody wants to be my enemy Spare the sympathy Everybody wants to be my enemy-y-y-y-y (look, look, look, look) (Look out for yourself) My enemy-y-y-y-y (look, look, look, look) (yeah) (Look out for yourself), uh, look Okay, I'm hopin' that somebody pray for me I'm prayin' that somebody hope for me I'm stayin' where nobody 'posed to be P-P-Posted, bein' 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 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, thinkin' 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 wreakin' havoc on an opposition Kinda shockin', they wanted static, with precision, I'm automatic Quarterback, I ain't talkin' sackin', pack it, pack it up I don't panic, batter, batter up, who the baddest? It don't matter 'cause we're at your throat Everybody wants to be my enemy Spare the sympathy (oh) Everybody wants to be my enemy Oh, the misery (oh) Everybody wants to be my enemy Spare the sympathy (oh) 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)
