Not me

"Preach to My Demons"

(Verse 1)

I’ve been runnin’ from my past, I ain’t tryna go back,

Devil in my ear, tryna push me off track.

Pastor say pray, but the drugs talk louder,

Bible on the nightstand, sins stackin’ higher.

Fucked up too much, now my soul feel vacant,

Tryna talk to God, but He told me, “Be patient.”

I don’t got time, all these thoughts too loud,

Tears in my cup, I’ve been drownin’ my doubts.

I know, I know, I ne change my ways,

But these chains too tight, I’m stuck in m pain.

Pour another four just to balance out the shame,

Halo on my head, but the devil know my name.

Preach to my demons, tell ‘em I ain"t scared,

Tryna find heaven, bu the gates ain"t there.

God, can You hear me? I’m losin’ my purpose,

If I fall now, was the fight even worth it?

L

Lookin’ in the mirror like, “Who tf am I?”

Lost too many friends, I can"t even cry

Angels on my shoulders, but they wings feel heavy,

Prayin’ for a sign, but I know I ain’t ready.

Smoke in my lungs, got a cross on my chest,

Livin’ like a sinner, but I hope I’m still blessed.

Demons in my whip, ridin’ round like they homies,

God on my line, but I left that shit on read.

Yeah, I left that shit on read…

But I hope He call back before I end up dead… (Free My Bro)

(Ayy, ayy)

Ain’t my fault, I just gave him the light, (What?)

You put him through hell, I’m the one who fought for his life. (Huh?)

You had him prayin", but he ain"t see a thing,

Had him on his knees while you built the cage with chains.

You took his family, then you made him wait,

Made him keep the faith while you sealed his fate. (What?)

Gave him a heart, but you made it break,

Now you wonder why he lookin" for a way out the maze? (Nah!)

Told him, "Stay clean," but you gave him the dirt,

You let him starve while you made him search. (What?)

Told him, "Be humble," but he lost the worth,

I showed him he can rise, now his hands in the earth! (Bow!)

(God’s Hook - Mocking, Sinister)

Hahaha, you still talkin’ that mess? (What?)

I gave him the test, now he caught in the stress. (Huh?)

Told him, "Obey," but he chose the wrong side,

Now he callin" on you, thinkin" he gon’ ride. (Bow!)

Hahaha, he mine now, it’s fate,

You think you saved him? Nah, you late. (What?)

I made him suffer, I made him break,

Now he stuck, and he can’t escape. (Gang!)

(Demon’s Bridge - Urgent, Emotional)

Yo, bro, don’t listen, he never cared!

You was in pain while he left you there.

I came through when you needed a hand,

He had you trapped, that was his plan! (What?)

I showed you love when he left you cold,

Told you the truth when the lies got bold.

You wanted peace, I made it clear,

He kept you lost, but I’m right here!

(Outro - God Laughing, Beat Still Knocking)

(God: "Ayo, y’all mad at Me? For real?")

(Demon: "You played him from the start, bro.")

(God: "It’s all part of the test...")

(Demon: "Nah, you used him like a pawn.")

(God: "You can say what you want... but he chose his path.")
