Break Up With The Devil
I had to break up with the devil
He almost convinced me to sell my soul for a bottle
Told me I don’t need a wife, I just need my phone and these instagram models
He supported me, when I had shades on, sitting there adding clouds to the sky
Sitting next to me, whispering in my ear, “Now this is the life.”
He told me, “Life is too short to not have fun.”
I took that as whenever I see responsibility, I should just take off and run
“Live in the moment.”, was one of his favorite quotes
But he refused to tell me the words I needed to hear the most
Those words were, “Your on the wrong path, you need to steer right.”
Thats when I finally came to the realization that he’s not my guy
He knew every weakness, every detail about me and all my vices
He knew I could shine, but he also knew I couldn’t see my own brightness
And thats why I told him, “It’s Over.”
