Rearview Mirror

'Hello, this is the Devil
Young Xin as you run for the sun think twice
For it burns off the wings of the ones too close
If your tooth yearns for the fruits I provide
Come dine with the Devil in the fire and smoke'

Looks like you did it again
Got carried away and
Dragged myself into oblivion
Of the little that I recall
I guarantee I made myself appear a fool
I'm sure that we had a real good time
Lost memory at the tenth mescal and lime
Well honestly I wouldn't worry about it
In a couple hours imma be alright
These days I'm only off the rails half the time
And it's usually when I need a little peace of mind
Yeah, and bumpy as it may seem
Like bunking the Bakerloo from Piccadilly to Kensal Green
Swerving the train workers the execution pristine
Then I'll burst in the barrier worshipping joys of travelling free

Keep checking my rearview mirror
Even when there's no one around
Look I got this funny feeling so just for now
I'm tryna keep my distance from the town
Forgive me if I didn't hear you right
Did you mention something about the sun?
Well I go where the fuck I want
And that's exactly where I've been heading funnily enough

Mother gave me the warning my father taught me the lesson
'bout how not to fill the hole of an alcoholic depressive
Many a story told and when single Sally was stressing
A younger Xin could be found in his city acting aggressive
Clouds that followed him round as a boy until it would rain
If he was lucky wash the vermillion off his face
The red mist that surrounded him almost upon a daily
Could just about form the words that read
'Somebody save me'
Not to mention the females
That had me stuck between a rock and a hard place
Forgetting all of the details
'bout how I found my solace all in a heartbreak
Give me soft skin and a sweet touch
Help me cure the blues of the lonely
So I found me another mamacita
Yeah what a shame she couldn't cure the way I feel

Keep checking my rearview mirror
Even when there's no one around
Look I got this funny feeling so just for now
I'm tryna keep my distance from the town
Forgive me if I didn't hear you right
Did you mention something about the sun?
Well I go where the fuck I want
And that's exactly where I've been heading funnily enough

Despite the fact this p*ssy wetter than Poseidon
I've had enough of empty fornication every night and
Mister Lucifer I think you very much provided
But it seems my demand for what you offer has subsided
I know that you've been on my tail for a little while
Dressing up in a black and white uniform as a disguise
But your skins too red to be hiding behind blue lights
I can spot you a mile off, time that we bid goodbye
