Lyrics

Say I ain't makin' deals with the devil, boy, I'm holy
Saw me on the billboard, why y'all actin' like y'all know me?
I done been there, done that, so don't treat me like the old me
Y'all can keep your distance, now you only get the ghost of me
I ain't makin' deals with the devil boy, I'm holy
Never thought that's really what you got
But at first, you pray to feel lonely
Tryna drown out more than I can count
Can't find no way out, **** killin' me slowly
I ain't makin' deals with the devil, boy, I'm holy, holy, no
Look, yeah, I say deal with it, I ain't makin' no deal with it
Lucifer always be tryna whisper in my ear with it (yeah)
Sayin' I can have anything in the flesh
If I sell out my soul and let him control the rest (come on)
I can't attest to the test and the temptation
For the fame they attain, your favorites embraced it (come on)
This is entertainment, what an entertainer
Hate this, Satanic, shh, with the A-list (yeah)
That is somethin' I can never become
If I was gon' do it, it'd already be done
I was cleansed by the blood and the death of his son (hey, hey)
Tryna give you the gospel, you should listen for once (listen for once)
Yeah, I know I'ma soon be gettin' better slowly (I know)
Really a believer, I don't keep it low-key, no need
Say I ain't makin' deals with the devil, boy, I'm holy
Saw me on the billboard, why y'all actin' like y'all know me?
I done been there, done that, so don't treat me like the old me
Y'all can keep your distance, now you only get the ghost of me
I ain't makin' deals with the devil, boy, I'm holy
Never thought that's really what you got
But at first, you pray to feel lonely
Tryna drown out more than I can count
Can't find no way out, and it's killin' me slowly
I ain't makin' deals with the devil, boy, I'm holy, holy, no (yessir)
Come on down to the Bible belt
Power of the sunshine, make 'em all melt
Only God knows about the pain that I felt
Now I'm livin' life by the cards that I wasn't dealt (whoo)
Never been the same since I found Jesus (nah)
Turn me around and he don't leave us (yeah)
Shadow of the most high gon' keep us (yeah)
Through the valley of death gon' lead us
I switched up good, don't look at things like I should
Bury all the bad that I could, naked and afraid how I stood
'Til I put the whole on my God on like a true warrior really would
So holy, devil 'round here tread slowly
Wanna come and test my faith, say
I ain't makin' deals with the devil, boy, I'm holy
Saw me on the billboard, why y'all actin' like y'all know me?
I done been there, done that, so don't treat me like the old me
Y'all can keep your distance, now you only give the ghost to me
I ain't makin' deals with the devil, boy, I'm holy
Never thought that's really what you got
But at first, you pray to feel lonely
Tryna drown out more than I can count
Can't find no way out, **** killin' me slowly
I ain't makin' deals with the devil, boy, I'm holy, holy, no
