The Devil is a song in English
You often gotta follow your heart to reach the top of the charts
See but recently you're falling apart
And if you're grappling with apples you could topple the cart
Sum of all of your parts, you ain't controlling some of all of your parts
There's a man up in your headspace
Test tasting ranges in your brain stem, craving every flavor
Of your mental state, like a neck brace
Always at your throat, you're the host, and you'd best make your escape
I know what sensei says, although it's cryptic
Twisted, mixed up in movie references
If your fist is energetic then your recklessness
Is detrimental if it isn't effortless
All you want is peace and then a place to fit in
But you've been brawling with the beast that you got raging within
And so you're caging him in thinking you ain't gonna win
Because you're anxious of the day you'll be replacing the pin
Oh the devil living in my soul
Baring claws and trying to take control
I already did my time but what's a couple seconds more
What are you waiting for
Oh, what are you waiting for
Never mind I find it difficult to live with myself
I got a plus one, no surprise it isn't a help
No surprise I'm not surmising more with four eyes
When I've been pouring every portion of my limited health
Into the dark arts, dozens of days I'm running fades
Cutting shapes, hole punching till I'm paper thin
And they don't pay for skin, but well they're gonna get made
So I don't wonder I've been gunning in the sun and the shade
Call it dumb luck, I'm just tryna keep my thumbs up
Till a tall woman with a dump truck comes up
Talk to my brother if you really want the run down
But a real mother does runs in a sun gown
Sunup to sundown bad, pray for me
Sending sons up to mums, let em sleep, take the heat
Fight the nightmares off so when it's dawn, they can eat
And when I'm done bargaining with Shaitan, save a seat
Oh the devil living in my soul
Baring claws and trying to take control
I already did my time but what's a couple seconds more
What are you waiting for
Oh, what are you waiting for
Oh the devil living in my bones
Baring claws and trying to take control
I already did my time but what's a couple seconds more
What are you waiting for
Oh, what are you waiting for
