Life's Simple Wants: Battle with the Devil

Life's Simple Wants: Battle with the Devil

Me....

Yo, you don't even know till you're outta your domain,
Being stuck in bed,
it's a different kind of pain.
All night,
all day,
Feelin' like you're goin' insane,
Wonderin' if life will ever be the same again.

My simple wants,
lemme tell you what I'm sayin',
Like my future wife next to me,
in my bed layin'.
Me not sayin' a word,
nowhere near the pain,
Her love keeps me grounded,
keeps me sane.

Devil...

But why dream of love when pain's all around?
She'll leave you behind,
can't stick through the sound.
Life's a cruel joke,
with nothin' to gain,
No escape from this game,
only sufferin' and pain.

Me....

No cancer on earth,
torched under flame,
Smiles on faces,
no more playin' this game.
Our kids and my partner,
standin' on solid ground,
Days free of strife,
peace all around.

Devil...

But cancer's a beast,
you can't burn it down,
Smiles fade fast,
replaced with a frown.
Strife and war,
they ain't never gonna leave,
Peace is just a dream,
nothin' to achieve.

Me....

Everyone seen as equal,
no more fights,
Helpin' others in need,
doin' what's right.
Every day a delight,
shelter for the night,
Lands ruled by kindness,
shining light.

Devil...

Equality's a myth,
people love to scrap,
Helpin' others?
They'll just stab you in the back.
Every day a delight?
That's a lie,
don't you see?
Shelter for all?
Yeah,
right,
Let it be.

Me....

Thwartin' all evil,
with strength and might,
Not conquerin' lands,
keepin' things tight.
Focus on good,
keepin' it local,
National pride,
make it vocal.

Devil....

Fear rules all,
kindness is weak,
Evil's too strong,
your strength's at peak.
Conquerin' lands?
It's human nature,
you see,
Focus on good?
Nah,
that's being a pussy.

Me...

My simple wants,
lemme tell you what I'm sayin',
Like my future wife next to me,
in my bed layin'.
Me not sayin' a word,
nowhere near the pain,
Her love keeps me grounded,
keeps me sane.

Life's simple wants,
a battle every day,
With the devil on my shoulder,
leadin' me astray.
But I'll keep fightin',
through the pain and strife,
For the dreams I hold dear,
for a better life.
