The devil wants my soul.
He speaks to me.
Here’s a glimpse.
A cry for help.
Verse WuN
My thoughts dark like Sudan and Haiti /
It’s evident when I scan a lady /
My pride saying “if rap was the NFL then mans is Brady” /
The flesh want the old me back like the fans of Shady /
Yeah, I’m tempted to light up and bun a pound /
The hate is real, break the seal and done the crown /
I’m seeing visions of me where I run the town /
You saying smack, spray the mac and gun em down /
Word, Now I’m ducking a cop /
My flesh loves the feeling of feeling stuck on the block /
All I know is the stash that I tuck in my sock /
Sticking players for ice like a puck when it drop /
Uh, I can’t front dogg, I like the the cheddar /
Flesh saying “get cheques (checks) like a Nike sweater /
Devil saying “all your storms I can
Likely weather” /
“Forget Christ - this might be better” /
Are you rolling or what? /
Hook
Make space for me /
You really think by grace your free? /
Look, I’m the place to be /
All you gotta do is taste and see /
Then worship me /
I will give you everything you ever wanted if you worship me /
I will give you everything you ever wanted if you worship me /
I will give you everything you ever wanted if you worship me /
I will give you everythang, everythang /
Follow me /
Verse Two
When I wake I feel /
That I can’t tell the difference tween fake and real /
Quite often I listen to the snake’s appeal /
Will I take the deal? /
My mind is hell, time will tell if I break and kneel /
The topic is ill /
(Re)member when he brought Christ to the top of the hill? /
Huh? My two knees I’ll be dropping em still /
He giving me change like the gwop in a till /
I want the fame, the power, the women and the cheddar to flaunt /
In other words whatever I want /
I’m thinking this be nice to keep /
Devil’s pie - had a slice to eat /
Now he’s wanting my soul and the price is cheap /
He saying “Christ - no longer believe him /
So I’m thinking “is it wrong if I leave him?” /
Dang, will his voice decline? /
I don’t know but the choice is mine /
The choice is mine /
Hook
Make space for me /
You really think by grace your free? /
Look, I’m the place to be /
All you gotta do is taste and see /
Then worship me /
I will give you everything you ever wanted if you worship me /
I will give you everything you ever wanted if you worship me /
I will give you everything you ever wanted if you worship me /
I will give you everythang, everythang /
Follow me /
