Devils Advocate

I was raised to treat my bros and sisters with respect
I was told that mom and daddy's role was to protect
Sometimes I lay awake at night and wonder what would of been
If I hadn't listened to the words of Gods hand chosen men
I helped out those in Hilltops, Run the Race
I knew they thought I wasn't all that and out of place
But soon they came to realize that I was just like them

Playing devils advocate, yeah I know
Playing devils advocate, it's not for show
Playing devils advocate, yeah I know
Playing devils advocate, that's all she wrote

And you know you can't
Get it all
Even if God breaks your fall
And you know you can't
Get it all
Even if God makes you fall

When I hear
Gimme that, gimme that, gimme that now,
I just laugh out loud, cuz you know you gotta let it out
To die, scraping by, and you don't got time to learn to fly
That's when the adrenaline kicks in, don't miss you're chance now listen
I'll tell you when I knew that I was destined for this life
Was when I woke up to giant super moon on the day my dad had died
And I still can't get it all, playing

Playing devils advocate, yeah I know
Playing devils advocate, it's not for show
Playing devils advocate, yeah I know
Playing devils advocate, it's all she wrote
Uhh

Hold up, one minute, before I begin
Lemme tell you why I'm here and why I bask in sin
Come on now, I got a damn hole in my heart
Should of been gone long ago, but ya see that this is where I start, cuz,
There's a hollow in me, in my words, and my art
And I won't sugar coat the words she wrote, I'm gonna make it tart
So I spent four years in the haunted city
With ghosts demons and succubus titties
Yeah, I Went in as some kid with my daddy gone
Thought I knew everything, but I couldn't have been more wrong
Had to get my facts checked, and let them hold traction,
Or end up like the fuck outside my house who got bashed in
Coming from a faction, that got a lotta action,
became L Jeffé, became an attraction
For love, hate, or just to get a reaction
From the fine flaxen honeys and their greased up dummies
I got some advice for you pussies, cuz now I see you got your lives so cushy
Let it sink in deep, and let it bring you back to Earth,
now let me send you to Hell, so you can know your worth
You know the Shit you promote has killed my friends, my brother, my neighbors
They all had the same end
All got addicted to a bittersweet tooth
Coke, jolly molly, dem bars and some vermouth
OD'd with their whole lives ahead of em
Some liked the high yet some just want the head numb
Playing devils advocate, all I gotta say is
When you sell your soul, someone else has gotta pay

I know you don't advocate the devil
But you know you can't unsell what you've sold
I know you don't advocate the devil
But you know you can't unsell what you've sold
I know you don't advocate the devil
But you know you can't unsell what you've sold
I know you don't advocate the devil
But you know you can't unsell what you have sold
