Enemy Number 1

[Verse 1] They told me keep it down I turned it up instead They told me play it safe I aimed straight for the edge They said that's not how winners act That's not how stars behave So I took every rule they loved And threw it in the grave Now they're looking for somebody To blame for all this fun Funny how that finger points Wherever I come from --- [Pre-Chorus] The louder they complain The bigger this becomes Every warning sounds suspiciously Like a challenge when it comes --- [Chorus] Enemy Number 1 The problem ain't the same Every room I walk into Ends up knowing my name Enemy Number 1 I wear it like a crown They keep trying to shut me up I keep turning it loud --- [Verse 2] The critics got opinions The experts got concerns The people making speeches Never seem to learn That fear ain't much of a leader And boredom ain't a friend Sometimes you gotta light a fuse Just to see where it ends I didn't come for permission I didn't come for approval I came to make a memory And maybe a little trouble --- [Pre-Chorus] The louder they complain The bigger this becomes Every warning sounds suspiciously Like a challenge when it comes --- [Chorus] Enemy Number 1 The problem ain't the same Every room I walk into Ends up knowing my name Enemy Number 1 I wear it like a crown They keep trying to shut me up I keep turning it loud --- [Bridge] Say my name Like it's a warning Say my name Like it's a crime Say my name Like you mean it You've been talking about me All damn night Say my name Till the room starts shaking Say my name Till the speakers crack You can love me You can hate me But you ain't taking it back --- [Guitar Solo] --- [Final Chorus] Enemy Number 1 The problem ain't the same Every room I walk into Ends up knowing my name Enemy Number 1 I wear it like a crown They keep trying to shut me up I keep turning it loud Enemy Number 1 And business is still good The more they try to bury me The more I'm understood Enemy Number 1 Till the day the lights go out And when they carve my story down They better carve it loud --- [Outro] If everybody likes you You're probably doing it wrong.
