[Intro: Brother Jerome (John Carradine)]

What you saw is not a man. It is the Devil himself!

Yes, the Devil himself. What you saw in the cell is Satan, otherwise known as the Dark Angel, Ahriman, Asmodeus, Belial, Diabolus, the Devil


[Chorus: Lo Key]

You know who you are

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

Listen to your heart

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"


[Post-Chorus]

These evils inside of your mind will die

Until they awaken the devil inside

Don't believe their turbulent lies

The anger that's in you will soon subside

These evils inside of your mind will die

Until they awaken the devil inside

Don't believe their turbulent lies

The anger that's in you will soon subside


[Verse 1: Lo Key]

It feels like I'm running in circles and nobody gets who I am

So I'm puffin on purple, like fuck everyone, it's all part of the plan

They thinkin' I'm happy, I'm smilin', I'm friendly, I'm shakin they hands

But really I'm thinkin' of stringin' 'em up by the neck 'cause I can

The evil is literal, fuck what you think man, that's what I got fans for

When you passive with people, they think they can take you for all that you stand for

So fuck it, I'm slitting the throat and the spine of the human I used to be

Suffering internal mutiny, but this sort of thing isn't new to me

Since the age of 11, I scribbled with pens till my fingers would lock

And I've always been haunted by voices that speak to me right in between every tick of the clock

So before you approach me and tell me you suffer from mental disorders

Just know I don't find it the slightest bit cool

And you 'bout to see real mental issues unlock

20 gauge by the mattress, I'm hopin' for static

I'm darin' you, faggot, come fuck with me

I will unleash all the guts from your stomach

And laugh in your face as you drop

And that ain't a gimmick, a horrorcore lyric or something satiric

I mean in real life, I will separate bodies from spirits

The Devil, I'm hearin' 'em knock


[Instrumental]


[Chorus: Lo Key]

You know who you are

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

Listen to your heart

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"


[Post-Chorus]

These evils inside of your mind will die

Until they awaken the devil inside

Don't believe their turbulent lies

The anger that's in you will soon subside

These evils inside of your mind will die

Until they awaken the devil inside

Don't believe their turbulent lies

The anger that's in you will soon subside


[Verse 2: Playboy The Beast]

I feel like I'm runnin' in circles and like I may never escape

Consumed by the hatred that's buildin' inside of me, feel like no one can relate

Like I'm repeatin' this cycle of violence, I'm silent, but I am just ready to break

Surrounded by people who say that they love me but still feel alone 'cause everything's fake

Unstable mind state, every day I battle depression, I'm feelin' irate

Too much weight upon my shoulders, wonder how much I can take?

Demons summoned to the surface and I'm unleashin' my hate

When I finally reach that point, ain't a single soul safe

My adrenaline rushin' and I can feel it pulsate

I'm a bomb with a short fuse, I'm ready to detonate

You bring a hater to me, I'ma kill 'em, I won't hesitate to (Nah!)

Overcame so much in my past now, I won't' stop, no lookin' back

Got my foot up on the gas and a grin up on my face, I'ma hide behind this mask

I've been lookin' for answers and I finally realized that they ain't at the bottom of the flask

I'm just tryin' to advance so I'm grindin' every day now

Life, this is my only chance

So I ask, do you really wanna dance with the Devil?

You ain't got what it takes to advance on this level

I done sold my soul and made a pact with the Devil

Only got one life but it will last you forever

From coal to a diamond, never foldin' under pressure

Never second, killin' self, only tryna get better

Gotta keep my head up, bro, it's better late than never

So I'm grindin' every day like I got a vendetta


[Bridge]

Even you will find

The darkness shuts me down

Wait to take your life

You will come to find


[Chorus: Lo Key]

You know who you are

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

Listen to your heart

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"

I said "Fuck you, I don't need ya"


[Post-Chorus]

These evils inside of your mind will die

Until they awaken the devil inside

Don't believe their turbulent lies

The anger that's in you will soon subside

These evils inside of your mind will die

Until they awaken the devil inside

Don't believe their turbulent lies

The anger that's in you will soon subside
