Cover art for Enemy lyrics by Flyleaf

Enemy is about forgiveness.

"I have made you an enemy I have been my own enemy." = Since Lacey has not forgiven you, and "hated" you, in doing that, she has made an enemy out of herself for not forgiving you. (Fighting ends in forgiveness.)

"I am asking for you to forgive me For everything." = Self-explanatory

"If you don't You're worthy of compassion If you do You're a better man than I am" = If you don't forgive me, I will still say I'm sorry no matter what, If you do forgive me, you're a good man, for being mature and apologizing first. No matter what I did.

"If you don't know, you're my family Enemy I'm sorry Oh, enemy, family Forgive me." = We are all brothers and sisters and Jehovah is the father. Even if we were not born from the same mom/dad. We should all forgive and love our neighbors. Because we are family,

"Enemy, enemy, family, family." = Lacey saying that her enemies are her family.
