the devil Lyrics

When you left I tore to pieces

Burnt to ashes not a phoenix

When you left you left me speechless

Couldn't breathe it's hard to see it's

Bitter like tea sweet like candy

Said it's toxic took our chances

You the one that understands me

It ain't over no it can't be

He covered my vision

He muddled my senses how did I do it it sucks that I did it

I've asked him to lead me to places too shameful to even admit it

I told him I'd stay down then I'd go back to God when I'm finished

But it ain't no playground when you're making your way out the trenches

The devil's a nice guy he always just know what to tell you

He's bigger than life size but he'll trap you kidnap you and jail you

He always gon tell you you welcome to leave if you wan go

But what he don't tell you is his devilish path is a long road

I put on a smile now but I only feel happy like sometimes

Man look at the time now the winter done took all my sunshine

The devil is slick cuz he makes me believe that I've done quite enough crying already

So I've been ducking my emotions under the pretext of crunch time
