The Devil Knows Your Name

Verse 1

You wore that Sunday smile so well,

Had everybody fooled.

Played the wounded father,

Made me look like the cruel one too.

You took my words and twisted ‘em,

Turned my tears into your proof.

But there’s a God above these Georgia pines

Who ain’t fooled by you.

You built your house on broken promises,

Brick by dirty brick.

Every lie you told about me

Was another stone you stacked.

You thought you had the upper hand,

Thought you’d buried me alive.

But baby, graves don’t hold a woman

Who’s got God on her side.

Chorus

Now the devil knows your name,

And karma knows your door.

All the hell you handed me

Came crawling back for more.

You flipped the script and called me crazy,

Made yourself the saint.

But truth don’t stay buried, baby,

And lies don’t die without a stain.

You can run from every woman

That you broke along the way,

But you can’t outrun the man

You see staring back at you someday.

The devil knows your name,

And God knows what you did.

I don’t have to touch a thing—

I’m just watching consequences live.

Verse 2

You used our child like ammunition,

Tried to turn love into a war.

You knew exactly where to hurt me

And you kept on hurting more.

You told your side around town

Like I was some kind of sin.

But you forgot that every lie

Needs another lie to keep it in.

And I cried enough tears

To fill the Mississippi.

Begged enough nights

For you to finally hear me.

Then one morning I woke up

And something inside me died—

Not my heart…

Just the part of me that needed you to realize.

Chorus

Now the devil knows your name,

And karma knows your door.

All the hell you handed me

Came crawling back for more.

You flipped the script and called me crazy,

Made yourself the saint.

But truth don’t stay buried, baby,

And lies don’t die without a stain.

You can run from every woman

That you broke along the way,

But you can’t outrun the man

You see staring back at you someday.

The devil knows your name,

And God knows what you did.

I don’t have to touch a thing—

I’m just watching consequences live.

Bridge — quiet, haunting

I used to ask God,

“Why’d you let him get away?”

Then God whispered,

“Baby, I never said he would.”

So I stopped looking for justice

In the hands of a man.

I put it in the hands of Heaven

And finally let go of the plan.

Now I sleep a whole lot better.

I don’t check.

I don’t call.

I don’t care who’s standing beside you

When that house finally falls.

Because a man can fool a town,

He can fool a church pew,

He can fool everybody…

But he can’t fool God.

Verse 3

Now the same folks that believed you

Are starting to see the cracks.

Funny how the truth comes knocking

When the lies can’t hold it back.

You wanted me to look unstable,

Wanted me down on my knees.

But God took every accusation

And turned it into victory.

I ain’t bitter, baby.

I’m just finally free.

And the woman you tried to destroy

Is becoming everything

You swore she’d never be.

Final Chorus — BIG

So let karma ride that backroad,

Let the truth roll through this town.

Let
