The Devil & The Deep

[Intro: Harold Holloway] Let me tell you a real old story Greatest story ever told About a little old angel named Lucifer And his war with the Holy Ghost [Verse 1: Jason Coffey] Why did you make man? And give him everything for free But when I ask for some shit for me You threw me in a fiery sea [Verse 2: Deacon the Villain (Jason Coffey)] People getting down (that's what I do) Evil all around ('said I'm everywhere) You are not the same ( They are not to blame (but I'm to blame) [Hook] The devil The devil & The Deep He wants to turn the whole world inside out Wake up don't sleep [Verse 3: Deacon the Villain] Run Tell him run real far Run fast as a German car You can find him in the teachers and the preachers even German czars Anything beneath these burning stars Run I’m talkin’ far like mars But instead we stand around in awe of the rare kind My daddy said pay the devil no air time So I’m stop it at eight bars [Verse 4: Deacon the Villain & Jason Coffey] He is prince of the dark Author of sin Father of lies There is no sympathy for iniquity The devil he fell from the sky He's the believer's deceiver The tempter The spoiler He wears a disguise Facism Sexism Classism The isms my nigga His plan's to divide [Verse 5: Deacon the Villain] Who got you hatin’ on niggas ‘cause they got them Jays 10 days before you got paid Who got you on the highway in rage callin’ ere’body out they name? Who got you giving up the fight? Them jeans never felt so tight Don’t you know no good? Who make you wish you didn’t know what’s right? Little Caesar give me one more slice I’m fucking hungry Now before yall congregate I’m just trying to conversate about a proper now Tt’s a spirit that’ll dominate if you let him in your common space and make you act out And leave you looking like a common fool Make you forget about the golden rule and what you’re ‘spose to do But there is hope for you Just use the songs that I wrote for you to kick his holy rollin’ ass
