Devil Now

As hard as this is
I am starving to death
While y'all are carving the flesh
I am impoverished at best
And all that I get
Is a palm to the fist
You blocking my gift
You breaking the bread
But I netted the fish
I am better than this
Uncontested at this
A legend within
That's destined to live
You call yourself friends
I call them pretend
Just peep through the lens
See who believes you and bleeds till the end
And I bet your a threat when your expected to win
I been labeled and branded taken for granted
Hated degraded and taken advantage
I got my name in my hands and I am taking my chances
Aim to you bastards with the rage and the havoc you came at me having
I am changing my tactics
I am done giving back what you wanted to have
It's my dance with the devil
You better revel at that

This is my pain
It's on another level now
I ain't playing I take for the pleasure now
This is my way
I don't plan to change
Live with my fate
I am down with the devil now
This is my pain
It's on another level now
I ain't playing I take for the pleasure now
This is my way
I don't plan to change
Live with my fate
I am down with the devil now

I started to give whatever I can
Now there's so many hands in my pants reaching for mint
Even my lint's worth it's weight if your weighing the scales
Hedging your bet when your bet is making the sale
You wonder why the artist is starving I get it
We all work harder in regards to the limits
But harming the art ain't a part of the business
Too many sharks in the eco and you harming the system
Ya'll go hard in the ego and that's the water you sipping
Forgetting that I made this in the way that I visioned
I'm tired of the lies and the disguise I've been given
I'm like St. Nick with my gift and I'm skipping this Christmas
Natale so fatal we can't give him a label
How is he able to chew through the bullshit and remain at the table
Just say your amen's while you pray for your sins
They say their losing a friend
I'll say I knew it would end
Cause a good chess player knows the move before it begins
And I been playing defense in a game I knew I would win

This is my pain
It's on another level now
I ain't playing I take for the pleasure now
This is my way
I don't plan to change
Live with my fate
I am down with the devil now
This is my pain
It's on another level now
I ain't playing I take for the pleasure now
This is my way
I don't plan to change
Live with my fate
I am down with the devil now

This is my pain
It's on another level now
I ain't playing I take for the pleasure now
This is my way
I don't plan to change
Live with my fate
I am down with the devil now
This is my pain
It's on another level now
I ain't playing I take for the pleasure now
This is my way
I don't plan to change
Live with my fate
I am down with the devil now
