Angel on my Back, Demon in my Veins

[Verse 1]  
Alarm on buzz, hit snooze, hit twice  
Phone screen cracked, same boots, same ice  
Rig dust sittin’ where my faith once lived  
Hard hat halo with a cigarette lift  
Paycheck bleed on a red past-due  
Kids on my lock screen, Moe there too  
Whole damn world say “man, be strong”  
But the steering wheel know when I’m dead wrong  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Left hand on the wheel, right hand on this rage  
Tryna write a prayer in the margin of the page  

[Chorus]  
Got an angel on my back, demon in my veins  
Saint in my chest, devil in my brain  
Walk that line between peace and pain  
Tryna hold on while I yank that chain  
If I break, I break in flames  
If I stand, I stand in rain  
Either way I’m screaming your name  
Angel on my back, demon in my veins  

[Verse 2]  
Boss talk slick with his paper crown  
Desk job prince tryna break me down  
Steel toe hell in a rich man’s world  
Oilfield dirt on a front porch dream girl  
Two-week ghost in my babies’ lives  
Moe say “breathe,” but the clock just bites  
I ain’t tryna be no martyr song  
Just a roughneck tryna right my wrongs  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Left hook temper, right hook shame  
Shadowbox both when I say your name  

[Chorus]  
Got an angel on my back, demon in my veins  
Saint in my chest, devil in my brain  
Walk that line between peace and pain  
Tryna hold on while I yank that chain  
If I break, I break in flames  
If I stand, I stand in rain  
Either way I’m screaming your name  
Angel on my back, demon in my veins  

[Bridge]  
If I go off the rails, let the record show  
I was one bad night from the gallows row  
But I pictured little hands in the kitchen light  
So I threw that bottle at the wall, not my life  
If the reaper wanna dance, tell him wait his turn  
I got front porch plans and a field to earn  
Got a woman in my corner who can read my face  
When the demon in my blood start to pick up pace  

[Breakdown]  
War drum beating in my ribs too loud  
Halo crooked but I still bow down  
Teeth on edge, but I don’t back out  
Turn that scream to a battle shout  

[Chorus – final]  
Got an angel on my back, demon in my veins  
Saint in my chest, devil in my brain  
Between peace and panic, I remain  
Middle of the fire tryna stake my claim  
If I break, I break in flames  
If I stand, I stand in rain  
Either way, I’m owning my name  
Angel on my back, demon in my veins
