Devil Inside

Verse 1

 

thought I was on the right path every step I was takin,

who knew that these steps would just lead me closer to satan,

every smile I was faking, every promise was breaking,

I hate to rhyme a word twice, my soul was his for the TAKING,

I tried to live life on a righteous basis,

until I was approached by a man who's head faceless

he told me to take this, his tone was tasteless,

he gave me a knife, offered me a new preposition on life,

 

Slit your hand, sign this in blood,

admit that you deny the one above,

scream at the heavens you reject his love,

the greed inside my soul gave me shove,

so I took the knife and slit my hand right through the glove,

 

I know that this sounds mental,

words forming in the brain then coming out my dental,

flawless and gentle, his help was fundamental,

his presence detrimental, my mind is now his temple.

 

Verse 2

I wish it was simple, but now it's like we're infused,

I tried to drown the voices with the drugs that I've used

I spent my whole life getting hurt and abused

didn't want to turn from God, but I'm the child he refused,

Can't even count, how many times I prayed for his help,

But God must have been busy, cause he failed to reach out,

then there was nobody else, so I let out a shout

so loud the Devil had to come and see me for himself

he understood how I felt, he felt the pain I was delt,

cast out of heaven, man that pain, it speaks for itself,

not about the fame or the wealth,

so far gone I don't think can ever free myself.
