The song was recorded in 2012, its producer is currently unknown. "Enemy" was uploaded to Tesfaye's YouTube channel on November 13, 2012; the Trilogy release day. Unfortunately, it was removed shortly after, supposedly due to the interpolation of The Smiths' "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want".[1]
Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
So back, I'm so bad, I'm so bad
[Verse 1]
Can I be honest with you, please?
It's really hard for me to speak right now
Girl, I been drinkin' all day
It's been a long week, can't you tell by my face?
I wanna lose myself between your legs
I wanna make your body shake
Girl, if you drink this fifth, no chase
I promise you'll have nothing to say, nothing to say
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause the least I deserve is no conversation
I been working all week
I'd rather be your enemy
Than any friend you think I would be
[Chorus]
I'm just tryin' take you home without a word
And I'm just trying to kiss your neck without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to lay you down without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to get you high without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you numb without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you cum without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you sleep without a word
And I'm just trying to let you leave without a word
[Post-Chorus]
Please, please, please
Let me, let me, let me
Let me, get what I want this time
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, ooh yeah
[Verse 2]
I forgot what it feels to regret my sins
I need that old thing back lately
You can help me out baby
You remind me of a feeling that I used to have
So I don't know what to expect from you tonight
But I'm not trying to waste nobody's time
I'm just trying to find material, some inspiration
We can put it in a song, if you want
[Pre-Chorus]
But the least I deserve is no conversation
I been working all week
I'd rather be your enemy
Than any friend you think I would be, oh yeah
[Chorus]
I'm just tryin' take you home without a word
And I'm just trying to kiss your neck without a word
And I'm just trying to lay you down without a word
And I'm just trying to get you high without a word
And I'm just trying to make you numb without a word
And I'm just trying to make you cum without a word
And I'm just trying to make you sleep without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to let you leave without a word
Without a word
[Post-Chorus]
Please, please, please
Ooh, let me, let me, let me
Let me, get what I want this time
[Verse 3]
I'll never fall for a girl like you
I'll never understand what you're going through
But your body wild and your head game too
You lookin' at my n*gga, you can have him too
'Cause baby, I ain't cuffing, girl, I hope you knew
There ain't nothin' wrong, you can pick and choose
Just don't call tomorrow askin' "What did I do?"
Girl, you know what you did, all to blame is you
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the least I deserve is no conversation
I been working all week
I'd rather be your enemy
Than any friend you think I would be
[Chorus]
I'm just tryin' take you home without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to kiss your neck without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to lay you down without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to get you high without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you numb without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you cum without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to make you sleep without a word
Girl, I'm just trying to let you leave without a word, without a word
