  • Hey (hey), oh, Mister backstabbing son of a bitch
    You're living in a world that will soon be dying
    And I know, everybody knows you try to be like me
    But even at your best, as a man you couldn't equal half of me

    I am realizing that everybody's lost their simple ways
    And now that it's here, I see it all so clearly
    I've come face to face with the enemy, oh, the enemy

    You (you), you're another shit talking punk to me
    You're living inspiration for what I never wanna be
    And I see (I see), you've been blinded by what you believe
    And now back up and sit down, shut up and act like you need to be

    I am realizing that everybody's lost their simple ways
    And now that it's here, I see it all so clearly
    I've come face to face with the enemy, oh, the enemy
    Come to me, come to me, oh, the enemy, come to me, come to me

    So predicting, you're the reason why I lie
    Simple decision, took me too much time to fly
    Oh, checkmate (checkmate)

    I am realizing that everybody's lost their simple ways
    And now that it's here, I see it all so clearly
    I've come face to face with the enemy, oh, the enemy
    Come to me Writer/s: James Shannon Larkin, Rob Merrill, Salvatore P. Erna, Tony Rombola
