Lots of people say that my song lyrics are really beautiful, so positive, and uplifting!
So, here is the flip side to that equation. This song called “The Devil” from my very first album called Hallowed Ground from way back in 2011. This song is about the human condition, the ego, or the darker nature that resides in every human being no matter how hard and how many different ways we try to hide it from everyone. It is obviously worse in some than others, however it is in everyone. If you haven’t seen it yet, you probably just haven’t been pushed hard enough. Everyone has their breaking point! I guess we all just hope for the best in that we never have to see that side too much…
The Devil
I've crossed the lands and hauled the seeds
for thousands of years my roots are steeped
you know me well I'm in your mirror
making your enemies and all of your fears
cause I'm the devil
cause I'm the devil
no fire that comes from my hand
no 666 ever crosses my head
I fear your faith when your souls are right
I orchestrate your demise
cause I'm the devil
cause I'm the devil
a world of horrors under my skin
for all the gods that answer to me
have all your souls cause I'm in your heads
even your kings fear who I am
