Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Damn
You stuck dodging the Devil the older you get
Youth grants grace, growth grants grit
With that grit comes its known opposition, like addictions
Evictions, convictions, lost visions, love riddled with truths hidden, world trippin'
She just glitchin' man
Here come the Devil, talkin' to you with a smile and a shovel
Ready to bury you and your little hustle
And give you some bills and a, a brand new muzzle
The piece of peace that your perfect would release into the world
Would be a poison to the Devil
So every chance is taken to take your light and
And sell it back to the sky
And for twice as high
You're wise now, they'll know it
Don't plant a seed in your mind if you do not wish to grow it
You're a fast motion kept in focus
Cash call some people worthless
But what's chess to hocus pocus?
Pale folks' papas deem what work is
Broken people ain't always the brokest
[Verse 2]
As for the Devil, show it
No ruler can size you
No ruler should rule you, but the one that never binds you
Realize too, all that will try you is designed to unwind you
Define you, but you do get to decide if his tide will capsize you
The Devil's been lied to
The Devil could die too
