The Deal Lyrics

Had a conversation with the devil

The power in the presence made me struggle with my message

Stumbling, fumbling over my words like Neville on a broom

The elephant in the room is that I need to consume

Every bit of information to get what I want

Or I need, so I leave a little bribe for Mr. Lucifer

The conversation starts with “Greetings Chan, what can I do for you”

I told him ‘bout the master plan to be the man and not be the newcomer

I just want it all

I want it all

Tell me who can I call (Who can I call, who can I call)

I want it all

Tell me who can I call, who can I call

Who am I

He said I can grant you the power but at a cost

I ain’t no coward man, tell me what is my loss

He told me this is forever it’s a deal that never ends

I just need one thing and you can live your life of sin

I asked what do I give, he said it comes from within

So I’m thinking what could he possibly want from under my skin

Is it my thoughts and my brain

And in this moment I was overcome with a feeling that I just cannot explain

What is happening

Am I trapped in it

Tell me what is happening

And am I trapped

I put the pen to the paper and sold my soul with the ink

I never told anyone at the fear of what they would think

I just want to be the greatest and he told me I could have it

At the cost of one item I’d have all I could imagine

Now I worry ‘bout the value I received

Did the serpent play me like he tricked Adam and Eve

Did I sign a deal that God wouldn’t believe

And when I finally pass is it my soul that my loved ones will grieve

At a glance I’m just another fool played by Mr. Satan

Another victim with his body vacant

I’m taken aback by the fact that my greed had got the best of me

All for a plaque, my soul black, the thought pesters me

Devil don’t play fair and I paid the ultimate price

The devil don’t play fair and I paid my ultimate price

Where is my soul

Aye, tell me where is my soul

The devil don’t play fair

The devil don’t play fair
