Let me ask you a question.
Have you ever danced with the devil
Got a civil war state of mind
Where my heart keeps fightin' my head
I feel ashamed all of the time
When I trampled all over the dead
Got a lot of blood on my hands
And a bunch of teeth on my fist
Ripped her face and I was smashed in
So messed up I couldn't resist
I didn't come here to die
Just remember what I said
Want to live a white life?
Run and fight instead of wait
Give all that I'm worth a bit
I've seen the devil's fingernail
I didn't come here to die
Got a Jezebel state of mind
Bits of cancer that I can't trace
Slow death, what a twist of fate
I took a long and winding road
But just to find this filthy place
cause I think it's been laced
I didn't come here to die,
just remember what I said
careful that I bleed the fist
I've seen the devil's fingernails
I didn't come here to die
Have you ever danced with the devil
Let me ask you a question
Have you ever tasked with the devil
You see my demons are a big and tall
And the end could be getting near
And with my last breath, who will I call?
Cause it's God's face, a fear
It could be discipline that I need
When my head's wrapped blue and gray
I wanna fight my dirty deeds
And just about tonight, I will fly
I didn't come here to die
Just remember what I said
Modern brain has been waiting
For that, I plead the fifth
I've seen the devil's fingernails
I didn't come here to die
I didn't come here to die
I didn't come here to die
I didn't come here to die
I've seen the devil's fingernail
